<< < (2/4) > >>

robert40215:
I will try to carb rejetting this week and then see how it does. Is there a spark plug that I can buy that is better than ngk b8eg.

alan:
I use platinum or iridium plugs, they are expensive, but I don,t like pushing a dirt bike in the desert at 100 Plus!

The single best thing that stoped me fouling plugs, was Reed Spacer! :-D :-D :-D

robert40215:
What does the reed spacer do and where do I buy one?

BR8E(G)(medium duty-fine wire nickle) or BR8E(V)(race duty-fine wire gold platinum),  instead of an BR9E(S)(standard duty-copper core).  The lower number is hotter and larger number is cooler.  Dunes 9, track 8, woods 7, so to speak.  R=resistor-newer gen for less radio frequency interference.
