Spring tune up time is approaching and changing the spark plug(s)
is usually on the punch list. Putting in a new plug is great but the
old plug usually has something to tell you. I looked around and
found these links, they have some good tips on “Reading” plugs.

I was surprised how much crud was in my LawnBoy's filter. Mulched a lot of leaves last fall. Always surprised how it starts on 2nd or 3rd pull every year.

I haven't even taken a look at my F-525 yet. Guess that will be another project for this weekend.

I done my Deere LT150 and Toro S.R. last week while it was warm. The plug on the Deere was clean yet after 30 hrs. The toro had a fair build up on it. It may have had a couple of years on it though. Still started on the second pull after setting for 4 months. I always wire brush and re-gap the plugs in the spring or just replace them based mainly on how they were starting and running when used last in the fall.
