Message: [QUOTE="weimedog, post: 159726, member: 20655"] I ran NGK-B8ES spark plugs for two years. I fouled one plug prior to rejetting and never fouled anotherafter re-jetting the thing. I did change them periodically as preventive maintainance:) Interestingly enough the one I fouled happened after a LONG down hill almost a mile long steep Rocky Mountain Goat Trail ( At least it felt like a goat trail...it was actually a motorcycle trail for those who care) It got all loaded up and when I tried to clean it out on a short straight...it fouled bad. After re-jetting I rode that same trail many times with no plug problems. And yes I used to clutch and blip the throttle once in a while to try and keep it from loading up...it fouled anyway on that pre-rejetting day....:) Message? Don't be afraid to rejet a Husky. Especially if it has stock jetting and you ride at altitude. Also remember those husqvarna WR360's had a LOT on compression. Hard to kick over. One I learned how to maximize the start RPM by "snapping" that kick start vs. Jumping and pushing real hard..it started easier. The Kick start gear plus hi compression made them hard to get enough RPM's from the kick starter to get them running.:) ( My VOR is MUCH easier to get started! Go figure....and its a 503cc Fourstroke THumper!) [/QUOTE]
