Cleaning a Intercooler, and Plugs FowlingNismoTech 01-07-2002, 02:20 PM Whats up, the last couple weeks I have been fowling spark plugs like a mad man. I replaced them to find a number of them fowled again a week or so after, so I started just cleaning them up and replacing them and when I took out the spark plug and looked on top of the piston head a saw lots of carbine and some oil. My turbine recently started blowing smoke out the exhaust. Now I have heard that if a seal is bad on it, it might be throwing oil into my engine through intake ducts. Today I checked the piping to find oil in there. So I checked my intercooler ducting also and found a layer of oil in the bottom of my intercooler. Does anyone know a good way to flush a intercooler out? Also any ideas on what could be fowling out these plugs so quick? I did do a compression check and they where all about the same so I don't think it the rings and I have a steel head gasket and I made sure it was tight also. Please let me know if you have any ideas.
