foul trouble

[jlr23402003]

i replaced my old spark plugs and one of the new ones wasnt working and fouled out. now that cylinder wont take to any of the new plugs and keeps fouling them out. has any one else had this problem? how can i clean out that cylinder?

what do you mean by "fouling out".

if the plug just isnt firing, it would be clean and wet...and the engine would run very poorly.

if the plugs are developing a lot of black soot, then you are running rich for some reason.

but its only one plug that im having trouble with. the others are fine. im trying to find a way to clean out the cylinder and get it firing again.

nevermind, a couple drops of oil and a new plug later i got it cleaned out, thanks though

cleaned out, what do you mean? maybe that cylinder has low compression?
