The part of the porcelain you need to read for WOT is all the way in the bottom of the plug.

I'm wondering why one is orange? It's always the same plug .I put maybe 300 miles on these plugs. Car did not like them at all, so I went back to the tr7ix. I initially put these in to do a wot reading then pull a plug, but can't find a spot to do it. Way to much traffic . So I made a dyno appt.

There’s nothing to read on a plug with 300 miles.

Put in new plugs and quickly make 1 WOT pass with little to no idle/cruise time on them.

Pull over with as little idle run time on them as possible. (zero is best) Pull them all and cut the threads off. Then post pics and we can read them.

Default Meth Distribution

Hi Jimmy, NO

You pictures are not focused.

The color question : My guess is that the "meth injection" is not done for even distribution.
Describe this AND the SP cylinder #s.

As stated above, there in not 1 thing you can take away from plugs that have run time on them.
