Running lean would cause the heat. If that's the case it could be AFM. Mine went once and caused it to run lean over 3500 revs. They really see useless on those engines.

They're black because of the carbon soot from overfuelling, not heat

What Alan said.

I'd also be a little concerned over where the rest of it is.

It could just be that they weren't sparking properly, faulty lead/coil/dizzy/plug.

I think the colour of the plug is the very least of your problem . Ive never seen a plug fail like that .Surely it must of run on 3 before second plug , can't imagine them going together
