Fouling plugs like crazy
I seem to have to replace a spark plug about every 3k mi. Im sure its from the oil consumption issue, but this is really starting to be a pain in the ****. I wish they would come up with a fix so I didnt have to worry about it anymore.
My only real option to eliminate this problem is to put the DOD off tune I have back on the car but it severely compromises gas mileage.
end rant.

I put all new plugs in today. About half were saturated with oil. It looks like they needed to be replaced anyway. Not too bad of a job actually. I took just over an hour. Runs MUCH better now.
