[DeTomaso] spark plugs

[cengles at cox.net]

Dear Charles, 

If I recall correctly, they were amazingly fouled in just a few hundred miles or less. When it was running badly, I pulled the plugs and found that the platinums were there. They were replaced with normal non-platinum plugs and fouling has not been a problem. 

Warmest regards, Chuck Engles
