Im prepping the car for its first rolling road.

I pulled the plugs tonight to check.the tapets and found plugs in one and two near white and three and four blackish.

I carried out a comp test all showing 155 more or less cold. Any ideas?

It seems to run ok, im a bit worried something might melt if it is lean? Afr shows 11/12 at idle

Funny you should say that - i had a misfire, i found a loost nut on the inlet - tightened it went away. So i have probably damaged the gasket?

I have a new one but didnt fit when the misfire wenr. Bugger.

New gasket definitely. Go without sleep if you have to.
