Just changed my 40,000km old Bosch iriums for factory motorcraft (really denso) ones.
Some of them had a hard shiny black coating on one side, and a white powdery coating on the other.
Some only had the white powdery stuff
A couple also had a bit of oil on the thread of the plug
I shone a light through the hole and it looked like there was a lot of carbon buildup on the top of the pistons. I thought I've been hearing the engine pinging under acceleration recently so maybe this is why?
