Purchased new bike in
september 2001.Loved power delivery but fouled plug second day. Leaned out oil ratio of mc-1 to 50;1 still fouled plug. Drilled out air box cover and guess what-more fouled plugs. Started reading your site and went with 155 main jet and 42 pilot at 1 turn out needle in mid position-still fouled plugs. Switched to a #7 plug and got good reading off of it with no fouled plugs-have also switched to mobil 1 mxt2 but now a am hearing crackling noises like bike is running rich. When jetting bike should I jet for #7 or # 8 plug. Riding in tight woods at sea level at about 85 degrees and can only getr into 3rd gear. Bike is completely stock and also when do I need to service top end and kps system. Bike lacks power like when new is this normal?
