Here is a pretty good photo of some of my fingers and a somewhat out of
focus photo of a two week old plug pulled out of the Nissan this
afternoon.

This plug does not fire very nicely at all hooked up to the electric
fence generator.

Put a new plug in and she is back on 6 again. Don't mind feeding it a
new plug every week or so if it keeps it running.

Hmm if it's just one plug you gor problems in No6
Funny enough, we brought a Valiant once for dad that seemed to have a
stuffed motor. And a couple of mechanics driveway diagnosis agreed, I found
a set of cleaned plugs in the glovebox and decided to throw them in, then it
went like a rocket for a day till they fouled up again, got the carby
rebuilt and problem solved :)

It's actually No.3 and the "fault" as near as I can figure is a
combination of buggered oil rings in that pot and a dodgy plug lead to
that cylinder.

If you have ever seen the plug caps on a VG30E engine you
willunderstand why I'm not rushing out to buy news ones for a car that
owed me $500 a year ago.

In th emeantime I've bought a few spare plugs and i'll happily feed
them to it as the incumbent is "eaten"
