Stopping engine by flywheel method and occasionly by pinching fuel line to check LSN settings. I have changed back to the standard head for the time being, as the turbo plug count was gettiing a little expensive.
My other 5 Port which is newer (about 1 gallon) and running standard head at this stage rarely blows a plug. Broken in same way, same fuel etc. I might put the turbo head on this engine and see what happens. Cheers
hey grizz,

I would definately check your Idle gap and try a different brand of plug I only run novarossi in my GO engines as they semm to last better than any thing else I've tried also give the OS P3 a go they work really well also.

Are you coming down to Hamilton this Sunday if you are I can have a look at it for you then.
