Wouldn't that be because, while a hotter plug will burn through
accumulation, it can't neccasairly burn through all of it. Will my carbs
were running super-rich and I was having problem with carbon on them, so I
put on some real hot Bosch Plats. This helped-but it didn't sovle the
problem. Carbon still collected on the plugs, although it was noticalbly
less. But...since hotter plugs seem to have only advantages, what are teh
disadvanages? (And does the AutoZone carry the hottest version of Bosch
Plats that I can get?)
Good Luck Everyone!
