Some people have reported needing to change spark plugs quite regularly, even good brand genuine plugs. I just happened on an article on The Green Spark Plug Company's website (http://www.gsparkplug.com) under the main header titled Spark Plug Help, go to "Fouling and shorting" for a possible explanation... Hope this helps, one for poor old Norm to ponder maybe?

There are an awfull lot of counterfeit plugs out there with what look like major manufacturer's trademarks.
They can be difficult to spot so be careful where you buy.
