Got my new plugs, threw em in. Now both ground straps are a lite goldish color like the last pic you posted, but with a light colored flaky scale. Insulators are very light tan. Base ring is not sooty now, but as turned dark gold in color.
My flat spot still persists, but it seems to be getting better. I have found that if I keep it at half throttle I can get up to 6k with no problems. At full WOT, if I keep it held there, it just stumbles at 4,500 and I keep it wide open and it goes right past the trouble spot. It only bogs and causes me to loose speed at 3/4 throttle. There is also a slight miss when cruising around 4,000 to 4,500. above or below is fine.
BUT!! Despite this, I went for a ride around my neighborhood and couldn't resist doing some hill climbs on the terraces where they are developing a new subdivision. This little thing gets it pretty good in the dirt!!
