    Iridums or Copper?

    Iridums or Copper?

    Numbers are very low was the throttle open during the test? Valve Stem seals stop Oil being sucked into the Intake ports and running down into the exhaust ports they have nothing to do with compression or lack of it ;)

    Iridums or Copper?

    I had an issue at High Boost/Rpm with a misfire, only thing I could nail it down to was the fine electrode gloplugging with IR's, changed to Copper it went away, as for the OP's broken plug I'd be thinking Detonation..

    Ethanol Safe Sealant

    Deburr the hole and new copper washers.. shouldn't need sealant at all Dan, the Teflon's would work ok as long as you don't over tighten them they're mainly for use on plastic tanks.

    Stop Buying From Ebay Sellers - SSAutoChrome, XS Power & the MANY other names used

    The Supra Community are the biggest offenders.... Lost count how many times I've seen Vendors disappear then come back with the excuse "Do you want me to Make parts or Answer E-Mails"... it's BULLSHIT, my primary income for a LOT of years was Web Based and I always found time to communicate...

    Stop Buying From Ebay Sellers - SSAutoChrome, XS Power & the MANY other names used
