Default I need some simple help....

Today i tried to examine my spark plugs to see if i was ok or not... I can get the one on the left cylinder out but the spark plug closest to the shifter and fuel pecock side i cannot remove. The reason i cant get it out is because i cant get the rubber spark plug wire off the top of the plug , the one on the other side just slips right on off and back on but the one on the right cylinder wont come off...is there a trick that i dont know about to remove it..is checking just one plug enough or do you need to check both..? i just want to make sure they are not white..also my coolent bottle that is on the back of the quad (behind the tool pouch) is empty ..do i top it off with water or coolent or 50/50? thanks

thanks

Did you try wiggling the boot side to side? It just depends on what the weather is like most of the time i just mix mine 50/50 hope this help you. I'am sure the plug wire will come off you may have to take your airbox of so you got a little more room to work. GOOD LUCK.

It will come off, just keep moving it from side to side. YES you have to check both cylinder plugs. That is very important. 50/50 is a good percentage. The more coolant you run the hotter your motor will run. But 50/50 is a good ratio.

When your putting the boots back on this time put some waterproof grease on them this time & they'll come off easier next time.
