I would run a cooler plug like a P4 or OD 97T...was the plugs wire distorted and a bit pushed in?

I to have had that richening up during fueling, its been a long running debate to wether its tuning or a mugen tank thing.
It seem strange how a plug can be working then dead the next time you go to run but its simply broken the wire during the run but stayed glowing until you shut it down or it flames out.

i'm running my GXII un modded but i'd like to see what the muran mod looks like if you ever strip it please post some pics...Hey great job on the win though.

Thanks- running conditions were awesome.

As far the plugs go, the first plug's filliment snapped right off at the bottom, but the coil wedged itself against the inner wall and did not fall into the engine. I removed the head and backplate to check for damage and found nothing.

the second plug just got pushed in, looked pretty mangled, but did not break.


On engine, I've only had this one to look at, I'm generally a JX Ninja guy and haven't seen an unmodded GXII P/S myself.

I'd be glad to snap some pics and post here when I crack it back open, but I do remember it looked kick ass when I handled it before, which is why I decided to buy it and put a little bit of $ into it- still very reasonable.

FYI...Last week Amain had the carb on sale for like $15.99, now it's $42. Should have gotten 2.
