Replace my standard plugs with fine wire, and what a difference. I only have a couple of hundred hours on the standards, but they seem to foul to often. Have to do the run up/lean and clean a few times. I even lean on the ground. I am going to adjust the carb as well, but wanted to check these out before I do.

The engine runs smoother and I actually have about 100 rpm more then before on climb. The engine runs better then the standard ones when they were new. I know there expensive. Paid $49 each (Tempest) , but they are suppose to last about 1600 hours. I like them so far. Now to get the carb adjusted.
