Ed,
I wish you would test 4 of these. :) If Lynn is
correct about high power spark then these might be the ultimate solution.
Looks like 3 time the energy of our standard LS1 coils.

Here is somebody who pretty much sums up what my research
has turned up on Lead solvents - the only one I found was nitric acid - which I
will pass on {:>)
.
There really is no lead solvent. Any chemical that will
desolve lead will likely disolve YOU. Years ago, before people knew better,
shooters used mercury. This amalgamated with the lead, and the material could be
brushed out. The only problem: mercurey will make you crazy, then
dead!!
A good non dangerous to you, and non damaging to the bore cleaner
is the Lewis or Hopies lead remover kit. You can also buy a "lead remover cloth"
at most gun shops. Cut this into patches and run them down the bore.

Ed,

Getting around to see what can be done about the lead
fouling sparkplugs causing the infamous "SAG". 1st experiment
was to place the used spark plugs in a 30% solution of Hydrogen
Peroxide. I did that and place the plugs and solution in an ultrasonic
cleaner, turned it on and left it on for 1 hour.
It appeared to clean everything off the plug - but,
the lead. So far the only chemical my research has indicated would
dissolved metallic lead is Nitric Acid. Nope, not going to try that,
I'll stick with buying new plugs.
But, thought I would let folks know of the
results. I was really hoping the ultrasonic vibration would shake the
lead crystals off the ceramic cone of the plug - but either the idea is
flawed or the small jewelry cleaning size ultrasonic generator is simply not
powerful enough.
