If they're looking bad, then it may be something that is wrong with your fuel system or it's misfiring or something. Check this site out to find out what your plugs look like. That oughta get you started.

Which part of the plug are you talking about the top or bottom. If you are talking about the top where the boot is connected then try putting a little electro jelly on it to keep it from getting nasty.

well the top or the tip i understand will have a bit of wear, but the middle is what i noticed to be corroded white!!
