Hotter plugs = less chance to flood?
My friend suggested that hotter plugs would reduce the chance to flood but I don't see how really. I thought it was about enigne and fuel temperature, not spark temp.

I seen someone mention that last night on this board but cannot find it. I think it was the thread were the guy intentionally flooded the car before a test drive

A higher temperature plug doesn't mean that the spark is hotter. The hotter/colder plugs are those whose electrodes (mainly the center electrode) reach a higher/lower temperature under normal operating conditions. The plug temperature has more to do with preventing fouling and detonation while running, and won't help to purge raw, unatomized fuel in a cold engine.
I agree, the hotter plug shouldn't make the engine less prone to flooding. |
