Hi Uncamoose,The problem that Tracy identified was running rich at idle, and I don’t see what Iridium spark plugs will do, as the spark is not hotter than a "standard" rated spark plug; it is just that the iridium is a harder material than the "normal" electrode and hence the reason why they will supposedly last longer.For the cost of two NGK or Bosch spark plugs and the few minutes it takes to change them, I don’t see Iridium plugs to be an option.Thanks anyway.Cheers,Mike
