Would this work in an engine with an oil control problem?

why? the right plugs are the right plugs..if they foul, fix the fouling

Stuck piston ring, leaky valve stem seals or worn barrels/valve guides in other words it's burning a lot of oil and that's fouling the plugs especially that I mostly do short rides on it.

Just trying to hack it until I get another motor.

Ah.

I very much doubt those plugs will help a knackered motor.

You can always try a set but with the cost of them it's probably better either putting the money towards repair parts or a new engine.

Are 9's not standard, an 8's for freezing conditions an 10's for sport

That's right, I put 9's in, they're good except that I had to jet to 112/115 for some reason. The motor in not knckered, it just consumes oil.

So knackered then.

Worn bores = scrap motor.
Leaking valve stem seals = most likely financial write off

Don't get carried away, it can be just a stuck oil control ring, my compression is fine and I can change the valve seals myself plus 50 quid worth of parts. I can get 4 sets of rings for another 50.
