[s-cars] Speaking of plugs? (not A/S)

Good old $10-12 Haynes manuals all used to have a color picture chart with
pictures of different (many fouled) plugs and a description of what each
meant.  Just pull a plug and compare.  Most of mine I pulled all looked fine
all the time (maybe had fuel mixture off a bit)... but that was about the
extent of it.

Later,
