I had a 706 that would start fouling plugs within one-half an hour. I started increasing the temperature range by replacing with hotter plugs. Nothing worked until I put in Champion Y or D 21's I believe. Anyway the "21" is right. This tractor was burning 2 - 3 quarts an hour. No problem ..... these plugs stayed clean! I know ... some do not like Champions. But they really worked. It looked like a diesel sitting there running the corn dryer. You might ask yourself what the real problem is and can it be fixed easily? The problem with the 706 was a plugged air intake system. The restriction caused to much vacume on the intake stroke. This actually sucked the oil up along the piston. There was a bunch of straw, leaves & stems in the pipe leading to the air cleaner. Couldn't see the restriction until extensive examination. Anyway the restriction is removed and the 706 is back to normal!
