On all occasions the temp has always been in the ideal range so I'm not too worried about that. My main concern is will I lay some serious carbon on the rings and plugs over time and cause some premature wear? You wouldn't think so with an EFI engine compared to an old carb one. I'm just trying to see if others here have done what I'm doing and what their experience has been....but thanks for the heads up!
