Hello all,

I have had my 1800 in the paint shop for six weeks getting a complete

color change back to a close to stock light green. The car runs

extremely well and has never had a problem starting. On Firday I went

by the shop to find that the car had been badly flooded by a shop boy

who thought you had to pump the petal for twenty minutes before

turning the key. I pulled the distributor cap and can see an arch

across the points. I then pulled the #1 spark plug and turned the

engine a bit. The plug was badly fouled with thick carbon deposits. I

did not see any fire across the plug, but the plug did smoke as if it

were fouled out. The shop manager said he would pull the plugs and

clean them. Today he says that the car will fire intermittently but

still will not start. I thought I would try new plugs first, but am

looking for other possible causes or things to look for. Also what is

the best plug to run in the B18B?? I want to try and get the best

heat range possible.

Thanks in advance

Oliver
