Hey Steve,

My 1135 is running perfect after stepping down to 32.5 pilot jets. The air jets are all 1.1 and fuel screws are out 1/8 to 1/4

Was running rich with 37.5 and apparently so with the 35 too.

Great with air temps 80 ish, and low humidity.

My cell phone camera will not pick up the tan color of the insulators that is plainly visible with my eyes.
The spark plugs shown in my image are 27's which I believe is one step cooler than 24.
I run regular 87 octane E10 pump gasoline. Higher octane fuel produces excessive carbon buildup on the base rings.

Dr. Gamma, what fuel do you run through your engine that makes your plugs appear so clean?

Due to inflation I now run 1 gallon of VP110 mixed with 2 gallons of Super Shell.
The set of four plugs has about 100 miles on them. The single plug from the plug chop has maybe 15 miles on it.
