I bet it does fix it.
I had the bosch plat 4's and recently changed them out for motorcraft platinums.The same here when i pulled them they were all white,not even a trace of tan color I knew something was up because it had a point in throttle when it felt like it was missing.My truck runs better than ever now with the motorcrafts

Which bosch plugs did you have?

Hobart hahaha, NoNo , Those aren't mine, thankfully - some other dude on this site posted a few pics of what happened to his Bosch plugs, I kept this one - But yeah , that's something else ..

Honestly , I don't think the plug were the cause of this , but then again

Looks like replacing Bosch plugs with Motorcrafts fixed it.
