Hello all, I replaced the old spark plugs (ACDelco) after about 20.000 miles with NGK PFR6Q. The piston 2 spark plug looks more covered with grayish substance than the others. Does it mean anything? The electrodes look fine. (I think.) Stock, 98, 1.8t, SW. Thanks.

Hello all, I had done a complete PCV overhaul about 5 months ago. Since then, I have had a very bad engine vibration. Today, I replaced the spark plugs with NKGs. Excessive vibration did not go. I decided to play with the hoses. And unplugged the valve (shown on the right hand side in the...
