jtcdudeman · 09-13-2003, 10:30 AM

Ok im running a 50 dry shot, and i just go it installed yesterday and i sparyed a pretty good bit in a short time last night, cause i was racing a mustang gt, but i checked my plugs today and they look like there are gray in color and if i look really really close i can see a few tiny tiny white specks.... What does this mean, runing lean and denation?

And what can i do to fix it

ur detonating....get one step colder plugs and it wont happen, dont worry abou messing anything up though, shouldn't have done any damage, i detonated through abou a bottle and a half when i first got my kit, done compession checks and im totaly fine, just get the plugs to be safe...

those tiny specs are aluminum chunks that have melted off your piston and attatched to your spark plug.

add fuel

Try putting in a bigger fuel jet then. If that doesn't do it I'd start looking at cleaning the injectors, new fuel filter, and possibly a new pump.
