What is wrong with them when they are black. Does that mean its burning fuel, and if so, what would cause that.

other than the tips being a bit narrow, coloration seems to be perfectly normal carbon

One can only hope your engine is burning FUEL, otherwise it wouldn't run well at all... (I fixed punctuation for you in the quote, BTW)

All kidding aside, those plugs look fine. Don't waste you're money on iridium plugs. Just get the normal cheap NGK.
