    How do these look

    Replaced my sparkplugs this weekend and was wonder how these old ones looked. They are all about the same with one side a little lighter than the other. Engine has about 50 hours and these are the original plugs.

    Also, the gap on the old once were .025" and I gapped the new ones at .033".

    Those look good for that number of hours runtime. You obviously don't spend TOO much time at idle/low RPM.

    You are right there. Most of my time is around 4500 rpms. Prop is set for 5900 rpm max.
