Pulled a few spark plugs to take a look, #6 looks like it running lean, the rest look good, here are a few pics

Spark Plug #2

Spark Plug #6 - looks frostier in person; too lean?

Most all the plugs look like #2 and are dry around the threads. Notice the threads on #6 look a bit wet? Smelled of gas too, I wonder what is going on in there...
 
You're really really close but a little tiny bit on the lean side, I like a little more tan in mine, have you checked them all.

All plugs look real similar to #2, the plug from #6 is the frostiest of the bunch

I plan to richen up on more step both in power and cruise and re-check

The wet threads on #6 concern me though, it is not oil and there is leak around it - seems like a fuel/oil mix weeping out the plug threads...
 
Whats your timing set at?

Initial 10° (idle 750 rpm)
1000 RPM 10°
1250 RPM 17°
1500 RPM 18°
1750 RPM 26°
2000 RPM 28°
2250 RPM 29°
2500 RPM 29°
2750 RPM 30°
3000 RPM 31°
3250 RPM 32°
3500 RPM 32°

Moved it up to 12 the other day just to see if any differences... will check plugs again in a few days after driving a bit more.
