Yeah. Thanks. I've been thinking about that too....
I figure, it's running better than it was before, so no pistons or valves have hit the plugs. Still, since I now know I have one of the smaller engines, I should put in the correct plugs. Plus, the first plugs we pulled out were horribly black so I want to check these plugs and see how bad they look after a few hundred miles.
I appreciate your concern.
