Do These Plugs Look Like My Engine is Running too Lean?
« on: May 26, 2012 - 05:06:35 PM »
I just pulled the plugs from my car after making a fairly long road trip.  The picture below is how they looked.  They normally seem to have a more tan color to them.  These seem to be lighter.  Any opinions on whether I am running too lean?

They are on the light side but may be fine depending on fuel used

If the car runs good and not overheating it should be good.  Looks like it's burning clean to me.
