I am trying to determine if it was outside temp, engine temp, combination of temps, lean mix, etc. If his car ran so much cooler than mine, like Yellow Rose commented on, maybe it is a big factor in the equation. It was a gear change, cruise rpm change, highest ambient temp ever driven, and furthest I have ever driven it.
I pulled the plugs. They don't look good but not as lean as originally looked. There is oil burn present also
