Default Checking Plugs?????The Best Way

I want to check my plugs to see what's going on in my engine (running lean or rich). What is the best way to check plugs??
I just want to make sure I do it right.

Go to http://www.ngksparkplugs.com/techinf...q/faqread2.asp . This is a good article (with photos) which shows how to "read" a spark plug.

You just pull them out and take a look. If they are brown - black your running rich. If they are more light brown - white your running lean.

Optimally they should look light brown.
