I don't know what else to tell you, replace the plug, see if you can have someone check the injector. I'm not to familiar with injectors. Make sure that it is gapped to 1.2-1.3mm (.054in) and torque it to 13 lb-ft.

Let me know what happens after you replace the plug. I run NGK's at all times .

Well, checked all the plugs and only one is somewhat fouled. Number 2 that is. I put #2 in other spot, last night. Went turned it on, and still had the check light. Started it this morning, and its off now? Its got to be the plugs. But WHY are the going bad or causing me issues? there only 1k old? The ngks were like 3k old? Seems that my car is eating my plugs. BUT the worse one, #2 was greyish prong, black carbon like ring around the base, and the core was as white as it was when I put them in. The only dirty carbon area was the base ring. And my engine seems to be hotter than normal. My vavle cover is much higher in temp than it ever was. Someone suggested my plugs might be to hot for my car. Then again, there the same plugs I usually buy over my ngk's. I took it in this morning for a free once over from the dealership. I know I have a code 72, so Im eager to hear what they say. Last time I took it in for a vavle they said code 72. Seems that vavles werent the issues the first time? Who knows. im giving up.
