Is that a crack running from the plug hole to the good valve?

I think it may be against the guy code to call out owner-induced failures in public, ain't it?

Henrik and Thang -- immediately go cut a corner of your guy card

FMJ, it's "ride to lean" not "ride too lean."

I'd say that the plug melted before the valve, and it's most likely the plug 'gap' was facing where the valve burnt.
