fouling plugs so fast!?

Post by Sascha » Fri May 20, 2011 7:44 am

Hey Guys,

So yesterday I took her for a run and she ran SUPER strong for about 30 minutes then died on me... I pulled the plugs and they are fouled, it happened twice; wondering if anyone can tell me why this would be? I took a picture to demonstrate the issue...

Thoughts on if I need to adjust the air screw maybe? Would having it too tight cause this?

Here is a link to the picture of the plug (on my blog): http://thepersian.com/?p=460

Hi, What # and brand are you running and what size is your low speed jet in the carb also you might try to lower the needle in the slide down a notch. Atlas

Ya didn't/don't offend me.
It was a clue for ya to look at and consider if ya have new or current info to offer to the subject which had ended a long time before ya offered the same info which was offered to the same member on a separate heading addressing the same problem and the problem had been cured a long time back.
Lighten up!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ya!!!!!!!!. ...........lm
