fui a probar u na vuelta , la respuesta del motor era bastante buena , pero no lo suficiente , al regresar a casa he quitado las bujias numero 1 y 4 , esto luego de la autovia 2km para llegar a casa , donde no puedo correr
estan muy grises , pero no fueron limpiadas antes , igualmente intentare otra prueba con el elemento filtrante sin la tapa

I went to try a lap, the engine response was quite good, but not enough, when I returned home I removed the spark plugs number 1 and 4, this after the 2km highway to get home, where I cannot run
They are very gray, but they were not cleaned before, I will also try another test with the filter element without the cover

This is the number 4

Muchas gracias hombre por su explanacion en Espanol. Me gusta (gusto?) mucho! Intenta la próxima vez con bujias limpiadas o nuevas. Para mejor resultado agrega una cucharada de aceite de castor al tanque de gas. Eso lo hace mas facil leer colorante. 

Thanks. I appreciate your replies in Spanish. When you try next time, use cleaned sparkplugs or new. You may add a spoonful of castor oil to the gastank to arrive at an easier to read result.

aceite de ricino podrias contarme un poco mas sobre eso ? se que huele muy bien

Castor oil could you tell me a little more about that? I know it smells very good

In the past, when gasoline contained lead, it was easy to read plug noses. With todays unleaded gas it is not so easy. Just a spoonful of castor oil in a gastank will produce a good interpretable color indication on plug noses, just like in the old days. There's no sideeffect. It will smell nice.

Did you know that airplane engines in WW1 ran on caster oil in the engine. It's why Castrol is named as it is, after Caster oil, however the fumes gave the pilots the shits and the ground crew regularly had to hose out the cockpit as as result, no toilets in the sky fellas 

Just saying, don't breathe the fumes too much 

Thank you, Oddjob!!! Man, I was to be operated. I've just called the hospital to cancel and say the can give the cork to someone else. I've always guessed castrol came from caster oil. The inventor of the oilfilter named his product Purolator from pure oil later. Hope Purolator is still around. They are the best.
