I have a Merc 60 Bigfoot, 3-cyl outboard fitted with NGK BP8H-N-10 plugs. I
think my plugs look too "wet" much like the third one shown in the photo on
the NGK website.

Although the motor runs pretty smoothly. I running with a 130 degree
thermostat. What should I look at adjusting?


Four stroke? If you, you've got a problem if it looks like that.

Maybe a valve not closing or oil leading past the rings.
