I've had some in my carb for a while now, decided to pull them to check their condition and double check the level.
when I took them out the threads peeled right off, they appeared to be soft but had swollen and were fairly hard to get out.
The one thing that surprised me was the level was way off
I checked the level prior to removing them, don't know if it was the distortion of the pugs or what.
I'll go back to the tried and true way of removing the brass plugs and checking the level.
Just a heads up for you out there that have them in your carb, keep and eye on them.
could get ugly if one fell out while driving.
