your plugs to wet fowl. If you have really wonky valves in all the cylinders and weren't sealing, then I suppose you could get wet fouling immediately. But that's not likely and you say it runs OK once it warms up. Glad you could give yourself a discount :-) I'm curious if the FPR fixes the problem. If not, for further diagnostic info, I'm wondering how the car runs with a little boost in it (I'm not meaning to go out and beat on it, just see how it performs with a boost and fuel demand). You also want to do a compression test with the engine completely warmed up. Did you (or were you able) to get the engine up to operating temp?
