1. where do you read the color for the spark-plug? on the the end where the spark gap is or on the ceramic?

2. Does popping/backfiring indicate rich or lean?

I pulled my plug and it was coal black on the spark gap end and white on the ceramic, my quad is choking/cutting out around 1/2 to 3/4 trottle. does this mean rich main jet?
