Ed's right I was amazed at how easy it is to foul plugs when the mixture is too rich!  If the plugs look really carbon black, then change them out.
 
They were pretty black alright, so we'll see.  These were the plugs that were used in the original run, so they've consumed a goodly amount of assembly goo.  
 
I managed to lose 22 pounds of weight today.  I forgot to subtract the weight of the arms that sit on the scales.  Unfortunately, I'm still a wee bit forward of the forward CG limit, so there's probably some ballast required for the tail.  What was that... I think I just heard Tracy screaming :-)
