Re: Wet plugs
Unlikely a carb problem, as both 2-barrel carbs feed both a port and starboard cyl at the same time. If it were a carb issue, the problem might be on the top or bottom two cyls, not the left or right bank cyls. That engine has two thermostats controlling cyl head temps-one for each head. Possible the starboard thermostat is stuck open, causing that side of the block to run cold. Cold-idling engines don't have optimal combustion and may appear to have darker, wet plugs. You should be able to rent a laser temp gun from a local auto parts store, then compare the normal cyl head temps. They should be around 140 degrees at idle.
