so wait a minute, I'm confused now. If I drop my bike do I need to replace my spark plugs too?

 

what does the stock spark plug socket in the tool kit look like? the bike i have right now doesn't have one and i have to use a regular spark plug socket with extension.

 

i know you dont have to take the tank off. i said that i do to clean the filter....

wait did he say that was a fuel line problem???????????

 

You can NOT set the gap on IR plugs. They say specifically on them NOT to do that as the center diode is very fragile.

 

Don't talk like a divvvv you can set the gap on Irridium plugs, we race on em every weekend at top level!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If we don't set the gap we have prob's from rough running to not starting at all, and if the gaps too wide chronic missfire at 7000rpm, cause the coils cant cope

 

Iridium

Iridium is a precious metal that is 6 times harder and 8 times stronger than platinum, it has a 1,200(=F) higher melting point than platinum and conducts electricity better. This makes it possible to create the finest wire center electrode ever. Prior till now, platinum had been favored for long life or performance spark plugs due to its high melting point, also the technology did not exist to machine and bond iridium on a spark plug electrode(at least in a cost effective manner). Iridium industrial spark plugs have been around for years, but still sells for over a hundred dollars per plug. Just now is the technology available to effectively use iridium in a spark plug for automotive applications. The strength, hardness and high melting point of iridium allows NGK to manufacture their iridium ultra-fine wire center electrode to 0.7mm. One of the finest firing points in the industry! (Thus far there has been no problems reported regarding use of iridium plugs with nitrous oxide.)

Ya i took the tank off and found a little hole in the main line didt notice last time so it could be that or it could be that i put the hole in there when i took the tank off...
