spark plug color?

Just reading up on this spark plug thing and mine is gapped at .031 and I have tried from .028 - .035 and ran it for a while and the plug stays wet with blackish looking oil? I am just fighting with this right plug gap but get the same results.

My main jet is 310 since that is what came with my Toomey kit, needle jet set at the 3rd notch, and the pilot air screw adjusted 3/4 from all the way in just like the instructions said. Also no airbox lid at the moment.

Any recommendations?

try a smaller jet.. its to rich..
 
toomey cannot tell you your jetting they can just give you a rough idea..

Or I guess i could have said....why do they supply it in their kit? Regardless....seems they were off on 2 assumptions. The airbox and jetting.

I would like to have a jetting kit to be able to step it down gradually until i find the right jet for the stock motor.
 
Wow, interesting article. Kinda goes against the color theory a bit. Mine tend to run gray anyway.

and J75, your jetting would need to be slightly lean for your 1100 ft elevation.

So elevation would play a role too ey? That's a factor i never would have thought of....interesting 8-|
 
Oh....and my apologies for focusing the attention on my problem in someone else's thread....just didn't wanna ask a question that has been asked a million times on the board and clutter it up
 
Toomey is like a manufacturer, if he gives you a set-up that when installed like they say and you go out and blow it up 1 of 2 things are gonna happen you are gonna want them to pay for the rebuild or you'll jump on these boards and slam the crap out of their product, before the internet you would have gotten a different set-up now they give you blow up proof jetting, back when Yamaha gave a warranty on YZ's the 125's had .007 clearance you couldn't seize that motor if you tried
