I broke out the thermal temperature gun the other day and was testing the coolant and I decided to check the headers as well. Every cylinder was running at 500+ degrees except cylinder #8 which was at 200 degrees. I decided to go ahead and get a set of spark plugs. I haven't changed the plugs since I have had the car and it probably was overdue anyway. So I went out and picked up a set of Bosch Super Plus Spark Plugs from Summit Racing. The plugs came and I ended up spending some time on Thanksgiving Day in the garage while the turkey was cooking.
