Heat kills cats, which blocks them up (burns up the platinum in it).
Too rich blocks up cats with unburnt gas....lots of pretty back fires and popping in the exhaust

The plugs looked burnt, from running lean, but not lean enough to fry the IR in the plugs or anything like that.

That pretty much coinsides with what I've heard about our plugs. I'll take pics of the old plugs when I get them out.
