From what I've heard plugs only show what is going on at the time the motor is shut down. Since the problem is consistant, try getting it to miss than shut the motor off at that moment, then read the plugs to see what the mixture is doing during the miss. I would do it at the lowest RPM possible, I don't know whether shutting a motor down at 7000 is a good idea or not.

Somewhere in my foggy memory is an article out of a VW magazine that talked about a missing from the 009 weights spinning and hitting the inside walls of the housing. Anyone else remember? It had something to do with the Brazilian made Bosch dizzy. If it says "Bosch" but not "Germany" it is Brazilian. I've also been told that the 009 is for low RPM stationary VW motors, like generators.
