[acezeesawtooth]

you have to be gentle its only porcelain... so if you have a pipe cutter use that... if not can you put the pieces together and see the ring on the inside?

 

[qaudracer711]

i've never cut off the threads, i use a bright light and a magnifyin glass, with 2 blasters, adding mods one at a time, and far too many jetting changes to remember, i'd be broke if i cut every plug i've read

It's called reading a plug. I'm with Awk on this one. Plus I'm lazy and error on the side of being rich. Long as I'm not fouling plugs it's all good.

That's fine if you enjoy going slower.

You can see the bottom of the porcelain when you look inside the plug. Just cut wherever there is below there.

A little bit rich is different from just running pig rich and being content with it. I run a "little bit rich"........which is a tan fuel ring.

 

[hudack]

nobody said anything about being "pig rich" i like it tad on the rich side for trails now if i were drag racing or mx or any forum of racing damn staright it would be perfect!

Anybody going on the side of "running rich to the point of not fouling plugs" is running way too rich.

You can do it with a magnifying glass, but even I have a tough time doing that without an ottoscope and have to guess somewhat as you can't see the whole ring. It's not like I do plug chops every other day. It's a spark plug.....it's $2.50........the cheapest power and reliability you can buy.
