Took them out as I do everynow and then to just check the condition and the tips appear to be a whitish color? Is this lean?

An off white color is a perfect color. Yes, it IS lean but that's the way it's supposed to be.

charred black is what you don't want right?

There are actually several conditions to look for. Here (http://www.verrill.com/moto/sellingguide/sparkplugs/plugcolorchart.htm) is a good reference.

Mine were black and then after I got it tuned it ran a ton better and the plugs ended up being not so much white but clear.:thumbsup:

The last thing you want to see is dark and oily. Because that would indicate a probable piston ring failure.

To lean is not good either

Sadly enough I have seen most of these conditions on some of my old cars. Not on the vette though. Good find, excellent info.
