See a problem with one of the plugs. Lawn mower sporadically ran on one cylinder when warmed up. The gaps are within specs for both plugs

On the left plug the insulator is covering most of the electrode.

Are they both the same part number?
"Hotter" plugs have longer porcelain/electrodes. If they are identical, something must have gone wrong on the assembly line.
They look like Champion plugs, are they? I'm not a fan of Champion plugs. NGK have always been the most solid plugs for me.

They are Champion plugs... lessons learned.
