Harley, sounds like a lil hotter plug may help your situation. Ive seen guys even add an extra plug washer on some plugs which makes em run hotter. Theres Autolites that fit n work that are hotter then the 3116, but its advantage is its a NON resistor so you might give it a try. Good wire core wires and good adjusted points may help plus dont run the carb any richer then necessary to avoid excess black smoke from over rich running which blackens n fouls the plugs. Make sure the air cleaner n inlet piping are clean n free and the choke opens full n stays open and the floats not set too high.

Dont hesitate to give her a good general igntion tune up (cap rotor wires points n condensor) cuz it can help and its not all that expensive, then start out with the hotter plug n with the carb adjusted if needed n see what happens

Let us know

Best wishes n God Bless
