Tony,
As I recall, there was a product on the market that used a rubber cap to
help seal valve guides. I was going to use one on an old Chevy straight 6
at one time. You might try a old timer's auto parts store (these new
"supermarket" type parts houses are staffed with guys to young to remember
such things). I think they are called valve guide seal kits. Might be a
temporary fix so you don't have to trailer to VTR. Also, you can either
install new plugs a couple of steps "hotter" or install "anti-fouling"
inserts to ward off any fouling.
Just some suggestions
