I have a 2056 and was advised I should tune my MPS for optimum performance .

I rebuilt it with CFR diaphragm kit so I could dial it in .

I have not tried to tune it yet and am wonder how my plugs look ?

I have to richen the mixture on the ECU to run well (CW).

I understand running lean will cause high heat , which could be part of my problem with high running temperatures .

They look on the rich side to me .

Plugs are in order 1-4 (#3) does not have the number on it.

You really have to use an AFR

Plugs are not sensitive enough to get it correct

Plus you need to read wide open throttle for real safety of the ratio (and heads). So plugs won’t work
