--- Quote from: mikesmith ---What plugs in it?And are you replacing it or just cleaning the old one?Hows the bike run,and what kind of riding do you do with it?

I run a B8EG, I do quite a bit of desert riding and racing. I use a new plug most of the time i foul it.

Arigato:
If the timing is ok, check and make sure you don't have a head gasket leaking into the cylinder or maybe a crank seal leaking letting tranny oil in to the cylinder.

mikesmith:
Well if all the simple things check out,the wet seal leaking would be a good thing to check now as mentioned above.

gowen:
There's alot of information on jetting here! I'd first suggest checking A: your crank seal (wet side) B: compression C: powervalves.

All working? Read Paul's jetting chart. Find where you stand in the chart and try it. No good? Do a search on this site, you will find ALOT of good information on jetting. Every bike is diffrent to jetting, but try what is listen in the chart. I'll see if I can find it again.
