Default Is this spark plug normal?


Zoomed in on the one in question

All 6.
All my spark plugs look good in my opinion, jus this darker one that makes me raise an eyebrow. Diagnosis anyone? Or is it jus normal?

Not terrible but looks like the engine is running richer than ideal.

There's no oil on them and I assume no misfire codes? I wouldn't sweat it unless you're having issues.
