Jesse, I sent an e mail to these folks asking them if they had any data on how their plug performed under fouling conditions - both carbon and lead. 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.

>> Isn't 25 bucks each a lot to pay for an air gapped plug ? There may be
more to them than that but that is my first reaction. We used to have to move plug wire back off plug or cut small gap in wire to get a plug to fire when valve guide seals went out and/or some other reason loaded combustion chamber with oil. I first learned that from seeing used cars when worn out and using a lot of oil with wire gapped and taped where didn't notice. <g>

Even though they don't make a version for the rotary, I would like some
feedback about these plugs.
Any experience at all out there?
