Its worthy printing for sure for future reference.
Anyhow my question is my 01CR-250 originally had a BR8EG in it and sometime recently I put in a new plug OOPs lol come to find out I had put in a BR9ES which is obviosuly a Colder plug.
This plug only has 2 5-7 minute rides on it.
So I pull it after reading RR's post about plugs and go to do the chop after yesterday running it wot in 3rd and using the kill switch and coasting to a stop.
This is when I realize there was a 9 instead of an 8 in there.
Anyhow bike actually didnt run to awfully bad but was a little blubbery when I wacked the throttle more open. I guess it was kind like a sputtering faint bogs.
My question is can running to Cold a plug cause poor performance like a running rich scenario?
Anyhow just wanted opinions on my plug chops (dont laugh I did a horrendous job) and the shiny specs are from the cutting of the plug..
The plug on the left s the BR9ES with 2 5-7 minute rides on it and the plug on the right is the correct BR8EG that had been in the bike for gosh who knows how long.
Looks a tad rich?
Her is the 2 plugs: My 2 plug chops
