L@@K at my spark plugs.....normal or not...???
These pictures are of the spark plugs after 16,600 miles (replaced at 111,000) and 15 months of use.

It looks fine... There is a little bit of heat developing around the base of the side electrode.

Thank you gentleman for your input.
I was a little worried because I've driven 1500 miles since my knock sensor has been acting up.
I'm not hearing any pinging or anything, and I didn't know if these plugs were fouled.
If all looks good, than I'm fine till I have the time and money to just have the knock sensor replaced.
Cheers!

In a Junkyard near you.
Check to make sure the software update has been done or not. That year is notorious for pinging issues, whether it be by bad engine timing, or a loose intermediate shaft shield.
I will just about put money on the fact the knock sensor is ok.
Check out Honda service bulletin 04-050 (spark knock on acceleration) and 07-028 (pinging, Rattling or squealing during light acceleration.)
PM me with your email address and I can send those service bulletins to you.
