76230, Running VERY lean
Posted by EclipsedChef, Jun-16-04 07:42 PM
I pulled my brand new plugs tonight, not even a day old and the very tip of the plugs are extreme white, which means extremely lean. I installed a new fuel pump today, and the only thing i could think of that could cause this problem is the fuel filter which is pushing 8000 miles or more. My fpr is new from satan, my injectors have about 40xxx miles on them, and i cant think of anything else that would be the culprit. Any input?

what the whole inside of my engine is white. Well valves, plugs, etc. I was informed that was good. Meant that your car was running nice and clean inside. O2 sensor is white also.
