title says it all i have a sea doo with 2 plugs and i want to know if one of the plugs is bad i think it is but i would like to make sure. sorry i know this is off topic but i cant find a pwc forum that gets any traffic.

 

Pwctoday forum gets lots of traffic....a plug is fowled if it has oil on it

 

If the plug is a tan color it okay. Take some sand paper to it, reinstall it then check after a hard run. A fouled plug usually will be black and sooty.

 

thanks guys "black and sooty" is exactly how it looked i had my 3 year old niece on the sea doo for about 30 minutes just ideling around i guess thats what caused it to foul thanks for the info and i will check out pwctoday.

 

I've fouled plenty of plugs in my Mach Z (also a Rotax like your SeaDoo). They often didn't look any different than the good ones. I ended up switching brands after reading many forum posts about Ski-Doo owners having problems fouling NGKs. Since then I've only fouled one. The easiest way to tell if it's fouled is to replace it with a new one. Spark plugs are cheap, especially if you buy at an auto parts store and not from your dealer. Consider the amount of gas you burn in a snowmobile or watercraft, just throwing new plugs in regularly seems like a good idea whether they are fouled or not.

 

Come on over to pwctoday. You'll enjoy it. Lots of good info. I ride a 750SX on the water, old slow q-runner on land

 

i have been checking it out it is a really good site full of the info i have been needing. I have already added it to my favorits and deleted the old one.

 

I ride a seadoo limited edition gsx...I am currently having problems with the ignition.

 

hey stop, then gun the hell out of it and it it starts to sputter out at the begining of it, then finally catches then theres a good possibility that one is fouled!!!
