Could you do us a big favor and put all you posts in one thread? It would help to not confuse us.I had to go back and re-read both your other threads to figure out what you did.

You probably have the plug wires on the wrong plugs.

How long did you leave the plugs out? A couple hours is a good start, overnight is better. Also, make sure your plugs are dry, wet plugs don't spark.

Did you spin the motor over when you had the plugs pulled? I use to own a F2 but cant remember if the bike will spin over with the kill switch off, if it will then do that. Make sure to let it dry out and when you go to crank it that you choke it and dont throttle it at all. Just pull the choke back turn the switch on and let it start on its own. They are cold natured bikes and its winter time so it is worst. May even need to put the battery on charge a few hrs before you crank it. Hope this helps.

You need to buy a new set of plugs. Once those type of plugs foul, toss em. Make sure you buy a set of NGK's. My F3 did not perform at all with champions. The NGK'sare pricey plugs, but thats what that bike needs.

And as already said by DWT74,make sure your battery is fully charged. That bike needs to be cranking over fast or you will just foul out the new set of plugs.
