Default Re: About spark plugs..

This website has very good pictures of various spark plug conditions.

Post which one of the examples most closely match your sparkplugs. Then we can zero in on the root cause.

I hope that the "eating" is not detonation.

Also, 91 octane (US) fuel is required.
Note that octane measurements are different between the US and Europe.
  • Research Octane Number = RON
  • Motor Octane Number = MON
The European octane rating is RON, whereas the US octane rating is an average of (RON+MON)/2.

So, US octane of 91 ((RON+MON)/2) equals EU octane of 95 (Research Octane Number = RON).

Kippis!
