right the other day my mate fell off my ped nothing bad just lost balance when he stopped. ever since when i accelerate the exhaust makes popping noises like its backfiring. i have checked for dents, cracks in pipe etc. any1 no what this is? cheers
just took my spark plug out and put my old one in and its the same problem but even worse. so i put my new one back in after cleaning it it was fine for a few secs when i pulled off then went back to how it is. i think its missfire but my ped seems to go through more spark plugs than hotdinners any1 no why?
well try a new exhaust gasket, as when he fell it mite of bent the exhaust in a tiny bit causing it to not seat on the exhaust port properly.
u by any chance got a sr50 , cos if u do iv got a mate who has the exact same problem with the spark plugs , he has 2 get a new 1 every few months
nah i got an aerox 50 mate. yeh could be acctually if it is thats a bummer i just bought a new one cus my other one was blowing lol oh well there only 2 quid.
yeh i do but i need to change them so often. im on my 3rd spark plug in about 1 month surely thats not right :/ i was thinking its cus i have a 22ml carb without a 70s kit and theres too much petrol bein burnt off. but i dunno just a guess
yup defo running to rich thern and its fouling your plug, either put a 70kit on or put your standerd carb on. but ur exhaust mite not be sitting on the bore properly causing it to blow slightly
It may be running to lean, you will pop plugs when the carb isnt set correctly. Richen the spray on the carb. Is the idle a touch high?
to find out wats goin on with ur spark plug take it out and hav a look on here http://www.scootnfast.com/ , its got a really good guide on reading spark plugs ion the technical section , itl tell u why its foulin so u can sort it out
i dont get it though i went on there an mine looks like the bottom one :/ which says perfect colour :/ i have the standard carb from my mates mbk nitro in my hands now which was upjetted when he got his pipe. shall i put that on?
