Fuel Fouled plugs? Prior to removing teh motor of my car, i replaced the plugs with AC-Delco Platinums ( 56 bucks for 8 ). Whenever i removed the motor i pulled the plugs and noticed they were fouled. I cleaned out all liquids from the inside of the plug and used brake cleaner to ensure all contaminents were removed. The plugs look fine, and i realllllly dont wanna spend another $56 on plugs that i replaced 2 weeks ago. The car was ran four to five times for 15-20second intervals. ( maybe 2 minutes total on these plugs )
Question: Do i need new plugs, or should i be ok?

Just call an autoparts store and find out.
We will be waiting for your apologies.
P.S. - Just get the Platinum, not the Iridium.
