Go to your local paint supply store and pick up a 5 gallon drum of Toluene.

Torco works. It also works out to be slightly cheaper than Toluene IF you buy it in 5gal pales (for like $250 AIR). Takes maybe about a quart to do the same thing 1.5-2.0 gallons of Tolune would do in my 15gal gas tank.

Are you using stock heat range plugs? What plug gap? I ran .044 in the GTO with TR5 plugs and it ran good.

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.

I believe the gap is .45, stock heat range. I wonder if i got bad gas or winter blend extra ethanol. Wierd.

I know a guy that sells it for $120 for a case. Gonna get a case of it then get a 5 or 10 gallon drum (however big they are) and just refill the cans.

The heat range of the plug is too hot. Go one step colder and test it again.

See how the entire ground strap is the same color? That is a sign that it is too hot. It should change color around halfway. If it changes near the tip it is too cold.
