#1026155 Masken (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 28 Lean and rich spark plugs in the same cylinder??? 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Garage time in Sweden. This year I have planned to stay outside the engine. When I pulled the plugs I discovered that the right hand side spark plugs looked a little lean. A shade of white in the electrodes. The left hand spark plug in the same top looked perfect. Question: -Do the right hand plug run hotter? -Or do I have a valve timing issue? Front and rear cylinder showed the same symptom. Bike runs OK. The question is more of a philosophic nature Regards   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1026166 SKWEARpeg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 12885 Re:Lean and rich spark plugs in the same cylinder??? 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago   What color was the ceramic insulator around the center electrode?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1026167 Father_Pobasturd (User) VENI VIDI VICI Platinum Boarder Posts: 4980 Re:Lean and rich spark plugs in the same cylinder??? 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago   A philosophic question...OK, well, first, you need to talk to the bike. Ask it about it's opinion on God, global warming, North Korean nuclear proliferation, and the significance of short person behavior in pedal-depressed, panchromatic resonance and other highly ambient domains. You, know, just some light conversation to break the ice and get to know one another. Then, I would check the coils.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1026180 Shores (User) Go getchur scooter!

It’s probably because you make more left hand than right hand turns, or visa versa!   Logged     The west is the best - Jim Morrison Photo by GreenMachine   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1026185 davej (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 18167 Re:Lean and rich spark plugs in the same cylinder??? 2 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Put the plugs back in and never think about it again. Don't go lookin for trouble where there is none.   Logged     dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1026205 Masken (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 28 Re:Lean and rich spark plugs in the same cylinder??? 2 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Thanks for your advice guys.
