Ed,
Do you know what type of plugs Tracy uses, el-cheapo or platinum?  You
said that he runs mo-gas so I assume he doesn't have the lead-fouling
problem you and others have.  So, I assume Tracy's plugs are actually
worn out after 100 hours?  If that's the case, it seems that the
platinum, or iridium plugs might give longer life. =20

Not certain that reciprocating engines have the same problems as their
plugs
are not as shrouded as ours so combustion process probably help keeps
blowing off deposits on the ceramic center cone.

FWIW
