Hey guys,
I've been having some problems recently with spark plug simply dying on me. Recently I have installed a new lighting coil, and I think I might not have the timing set exactly as it was before. There are 3 marks on the stator plate, which one of the 3 do you guys have your KDX250's set at? I believe I aimed for the middle one, but the bike really isn't liking it (assuming this is why I keep on killing plugs)... I think if my bike sparked earlier, I could have a more complete burn, and less fowling of the plug.. So which way advances the timing?
ps. I'm running a BR9ES plug now, got a new NGK race wire installed, new plug cap.. and the only fault is the plug dies after around 150-200km of riding, which is excessive even for this bike, as I didn't ruin one last year.
Jon!
