I just installed new plugs and plug wires due to carbon tracking found on Cylinders 2 + 3. I'm running Autolite APP104 plugs at .054 gap.
Over the years, I haven't really been able to get decent life out of my spark plugs. I was running Denso Iridiums a few years ago until I got a little bit of a misfire. I pulled all the plugs and found they were perfect except for # 6 which had an electrode wore down while the others like new. Each time I have slight misfire, I find a slightly different issue.
I stumbled onto a thread on the old forums and now I'm wondering if I'm running the correct plugs and gap for my hybrid setup.
Should I be running a colder plug and decrease the gap? Could this be the cause of my so-so gas mileage? I never seem to pull more than 20 MPG trying different driving habits.
