Alright, so I got new plugs and gapped them differently...still doing it(turning white)
I have taken the car almost apart and have checked everything(even if it didn't relate to what is going on)
all intake piping, exhaust manifold, intake manifold, timing/timing belt, pulled valve cover checked everything under there, checked compression still at 180psi in all four cylinders
my air filter had a bit of sand in it which I have no idea why, but it is a k&n drop-in so I am cleaning that now, I don't see how that could be the issue but I am doing it anyway...
i got the car tuned last sunday and it ran AMAZING for like 4 days or so, then just one day it just stopped and so I changed the plugs as they were orange and then they started to turn white....
so I am running out of ideas, I am just wondering if it has anything to do with either the fuel pump or the fuel injectors (say if they are not running quite up to par that could cause it to run super lean causing it to do what it is doing)
I could try BPR8ES plugs but as someone said earlier with my mods I should not have to, and if I shouldn't have to then something it wrong, and I want to figure out what it is!
the car has ~80,000 miles on it, so it is POSSIBLE that the internals of the fuel injectors are worn, they tick rather loud too, louder than what seems normal...
I suppose I could have it retuned, but if it was running GREAT for a few days then it doesn't seem like that is the issue, but then again it could be...
but anyway, sorry for the long post, but any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
I will also try to post a log, maybe that will help...
