SU Carbs Popping, FIXED!!! Bosch Platinum Plugs
Alright after many hours of tooling around trying to resolve the problem of my SU Carbs on my 260z popping while accelerating (while engine was labouring). I pulled my old NGK Spark plugs, and replaced them with a brand new set of Bosch Platinum plugs, and the car drives like it was brand new. She pulls hard in all gears, and the popping has completely stopped. There was prolly some misfiring or fouling with the older NGK's.
I'm only posting this, incase someone else out there has the same problem.

I am a firm believer in Bosch plugs, I have used them in all 58 cars and trucks I have owned. I notice an immediate difference in the performance of the motor. They do burn out fast. Also dont worry about getting any of the multi prong plugs, the spark only goes to 1 of the prongs anyways so the rest are just for show. Electricty always takes the closest ground.
