Default fouling plugs on my new baja?

I purchased a new 2003 Baja about a month ago. I have put around ten hours on and have all ready fouled 4 plugs. Both timies I started it up and let it Idle for just a minute and it would just die. Then it won't start again. Any suggestions?

If its only a month old take it back to the shop and let them handle it. If you dont want to do that you can rejet it to lean it some.

the only thing about taking it back to the dealership is that it is about 3hrs away.

My dealer is 3hrs. away aswell. What elevation are you at. Maybe some of the members can help you with jetting.

have been running the choke very long seems that was what the dealer told me, i'd check that and replace plugs one more time they told me the choke only needed to be on for like 20 seconds.

the choke can be a pain. Make sure that it is pushed in all the way after it warms up. Mine has a distinct click for each position and takes a little persuasion to get it to move.
