Richard, it is not clear what the story is with the electrodes, ground
smashed against center or center melted. I wish that John could send some

On different occassions, but always on the same cylinder, I have seen electrodes bent/welded, and severely burnt.

pictures or describe more fully

Any sort of detonation or overly advanced timing would pretty much have to show specks on the porcelin, even if run only for a short time. No feedback from John on that yet.

I haven't been out to look at that yet Chuck. I need to find a magnifying glass.


It seems like it would take a really really long hard pull to melt a plug down in a Solo event, but I could be wrong.

Our average track time is about 50 sec. so there are no long hard pulls.

He has not said he is turning it back and forth like you describe, but going in one direction.

I am rocking the engine back and forth by hand, and it feels as though there is a lot of slop inside. I hope in the next few days to be able to get out and work on it. Been a bit sick lately.

Thanks for your help guys.
