Morning all,
I have a question about spark plugs and what signs are given when they start to go bad. I'm running NGK CMR7H in both rigs and both have been running good so not pushing my luck, btw both are 29cc 30Degree North Engines running 997 Carbs.
On one of the rigs its becoming a pain to start, pulled the plug and it seemed OK, decided to preheat the plug with blow torch, banged it back in and engine fired straight up, I tested remote kill, then fired straight up again fine.
Left it for a day and a pain to start, wouldn't even crack on the choke, pulled plug, blow torch, cracked on second pull and fired up like nothing was wrong.
I'm gonna throw a fresh plug in anyways, but does this sound like a fouled plug or am I barking up wrong tree?
Thanks in advance for your knowledge and opinions
