Hi Guys

Tuned it yesterday again, did not have time to go for long ride, as my mechanic said contact point and spark plugs gap were out a bit, will see any way i came down last week end after 750km upcountry journey, while i am coming only i had that problem, will see how it goes this time ,i love to drive it on hill there it was always like a beast

But i am sure i will not be side of the road anyway, it always goes to the destination and die for some reason that is why i love this car.



thanks
Regards
sumith

NGK BPR5 is a correct plug -- See Spark plugs.
NGK BKR5 is I don't know what it is

It is not causing the problem, or all the BKR5E plugs would be fouled. Unless you are using other plugs in the other three cylinders...

be careful removing and replacing spark plug leads while the engine is running.

a good spark will jump a fair distance, and they bite really hard!

#4 seems to cop the PCV fallout I've found. . . a little darker but nothing extreme.

Are you having any issues with the float level?
If fuel is pooling, it usually end up in #4 too. . .

Yes, the plug is fouled. It's not a bad plug, but something is wrong with the engine. It will foul the next plug you fit.

Now your task is to find the cause and repair it.
