SO lately my car has been intermittenly breaking up, sputtering under boost. so i decided to take apart a few things and see whats going on with my whole fuel/ignition system. I started with the fuel rail, unbolted it, unplugged clips and turned key on to prime fuel pumpand noticed my plugs are pretty burnt up for about 3600 miles. I been running e85 at 15psi on an emance rom tune.
The first cylinder has a build up on 1/4 of the plug.http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y70/guitarist_of_punk/DSC01584.jpg
the second cylinder has a little but not much of the same buildup. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y70/guitarist_of_punk/DSC01585.jpg
the third and forth look very similar
