After reading the posts above, I feel compelled to clarify my post immediately above.
Anti foul adapters are threaded metal adapters that thread into the the spark plug hole in the cylinder head and into which the spark plug threads. They work by increasing the operating temperature of the spark plug several heat ranges such that the increased temperature helps to PREVENT oil fowling of the plug. They are remarkably effective.
Spark gap devices that are installed in series with the plug wires are an entirely different device that work by causing the ignition system to develope a higher secondary voltage before the spark occurs. The higher voltage is more likely to produce fuel ignition with a midly fouled spark plug. These devices are completely ineffective with badly fouled plugs or without good spark plug wires, rotor, distributor cap, etc.
Neither device produces a power loss, all else being equal.
