Be interesting to see what the response is - if I get one of course. $25 is a lot to pay when the stock ones run $5-7 a piece, but if you fly much with 100LL then you will find you need to replace them around 25 hours or so. So if this plug overcame the fouling problem and gave a much longer life, then they might be worth the price for that reason along. Ed >> Isn't 25 bucks each a lot to pay for an air gapped plug ?
