Exclamation plug color need help asap!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i just installed a submarine snorkel kit and my plug is white, ive tried restricting it quite abit, enough to notice a power drop, and its still white?? anyone else have a 700 efi that they could see what the plug looks like stick, i know brown is ideal and i shoulda checked my plug before snorkeling but i didnt need help asap, got a big ride planned saturday

really sounds like you have an air leak somewhere. a snorkle kit will make a machine run rich because less air is able to get to the engine. i would start checking intake boots. with the machine running spray starter fluid or carb cleaner fluid all around the boots..see if the engine RPM's kick up any

did that i dont have any air leaks the intake snorkel is very simple, its 2" pvc deffinatley not too restrictive im a diesel tech not a backyard mechanic i restricted my intake soo much it wouldnt go over 40 mph, and the plug is still white im thinking this may be normal and the efi is adjusteing on its own thanx though!! anyone have a stock 700 that could pull their plug and tell what what color it is?
