   Greetings Dick T & List
       As per my rich running freshly rebuilt 6, we started from the
beginning with the carb settings. And found rather quickly this time
that 2 of the brand new Bosch Platinum plugs I put in were no good. Put
the old Champions back in and then set up the carbs, ending up with a
rather nice, smooth idle. I wanted to go for a ride but can't, since it
has no license plates......or headlights.......or tail lights.....or
bumpers, fenders, windshield, etc. BUT, it purrs like a kitten. Anyone
know the definitive answer to "what are the better plugs for a stock 76
TR6 rebuilt engine"? I've never really liked Champion, from always
having problems when running them in motorcycles. The failure rate
seemed excessive. Now it's time to sand, sand, sand....
