Should I be running a different heat range plug?
« on: June 04, 2024, 07:37:47 PM »
Been running an NGK range 8 for the last two seasons. Engine is burning oil but still running well, frequent plug changes a must. It should come apart but finances dictate otherwise at this time. Which direction, ( plug heat range), might I try?

Thanks.

Go a little hotter.
It will help to burn off the oil deposits.
