[QUOTE="reepicheep, post: 1400575, member: 104942"] More data for this thread... I put in the replacement used coil (ebay from a parted out 2000). This replaces the cheap emgo (buddy had it on the shelf) that I was using, which replaced the bad original coil that was in the bike. The lesson was: 1) A bad coil will foul any plug, after which no coil will help you until you replace the plug. 2) A $15 Emgo coil with a new plug will get you through the weekend, but will loose a lot of power. 3) A correctly working stock coil will flip you onto your back the first time you whack the throttle after getting used to bad original coils and cheap replacement coils. The 60 is running like a scalded cat now. Yikes. So the lesson here is that if you are spending too much time futzing with spark plugs, get over it and move on. Your coil is probably bad. :) I probably will run a hotter plug in this bike though... it gets ridden on trails and around the cul-de-sac, no racing. I'll keep a few cooler plugs around in case he ever does MX or an Enduro. Plus I then have the same plug in my KDX and his KX, so I can carry a couple spares in the fanny pack and cover either of us having a bad day. Thanks for the help all, I learned a lot! [/QUOTE]
