Are they fouling from carbon or oil?  If carbon, chokes or possibly too 
rich jetting or carbs need rebuilding.
If oil, could be stuck or worn rings or worn valve guides.  Does the engine 
smoke some or a lot?  What is your cylinder compression?  Is your timing 
correct for your engine and distributor?  I run with ONLY Bosch W8ACs and 
they don't get fouled.  Also check that your muffler is not plugged.  Rare, 
but it can happen.
