Re: Spark Plug Analysis: Pics inside (EFIGUY)
Im also wondering if this is bad or good. My car is mostly black/brown and only gray on the tip of the electrode and top of the insulator.

First, the camshaft timing and ignition timing are not related in any way.......advancing or retarding the camshafts will have no effect on the ignition timing..{technically it could, but this is the wrong way to do it}.......you need to move the distributor to advance or retard the timing.
Second, adding race fuel to regular fuel in order to improve the octane rating is not a great way to avoid knock. It is cumbersome, and kind of a hassel, and the results really aren't too effective. Proper tuning will negate the need for all the extra work!
hope that helps.

Yes, that definatley helps. Guess I need to get my *** to the tuner
