  |
|
Hey every 1,
I Had just finished putting the 535 engine together for my Shee and got some new NGK plugs, after a total of about 2 minutes of idling and 30 seconds of slow riding the bike started to run crap (poping and farting out of 1 pipe) then ended up locking up.
at first i just thought it was a crook carby.
I have now pulled the plugs out and found this.
What could have caused this to happen in such a short time of a new engine and new plugs?
Also who sells Denso Plugs?? lol
cheers, Paul

| you might need a colder plug. that was prob to hot. when they heat up to much they usually blister and burn the insulator.... NOT destroy it, lol. hope it didnt wreck that engine!!! |

I have seen similar things happen to plugs before, never the whole electrode come out though.

Go at least a couple of heat ranges colder for a start point and tune up from there.
If they are too cold you'll only dirty plugs, if they are too hot you could destroy your engine.
