The "adjustment" is your MIXTURE lever. Lean that mixture when on the ground for long periods of time. Full rich for take off and climb. Then lean using the EGT. That will help keep those spark plugs in good condition. When leaning, keep an eye on those engine/oil temps though, don't cook that engine :)

Or you can switch to FINE WIRE plugs which are more forgiving but I would learn how to handle normal plugs at first.
