How do these plugs look?

[sledneck_03]

Tops are new today ride. Bottoms are old ones.

Seem rich to you? I have a full throttle bog and won't pull over 7700-7800 even if I drop weights 2 grams.

 

[CUSO]

ya rich.

They should have a cardboard colour.

There was a plug guide I used all the time. What kinda sled?

 

[ferniesnow]

Motor and mileage please………..

 

[sledneck_03]

700 cfi 2008

4500 miles, and 120 psi a side compression.

Never rebuilt as far as I know. Bought it in 2008 with 3600 miles on it.

 

[CUSO]

4500 MILES!! WOWZERS..

Well I would rebuild the top end in it. You are one pullstart away from it grenading. IMO.

Here is a chart.

Meh it's got good compression and 700s last 6000 miles.

How do I adjust? Throttle position sensor?

 

[Nytroman]

What are you running for fuel

 

[benclaluna450r]

A friend of mine had a full throttle bog on his 08 800 changed the fuel filter and it cleared it up

That's what we thought when a piston skirt went on a friends Dragon. Good compression, Looked new from the intake and exhaust. 4500KM. golfball sized hole in case...New short block.

Good luck.

I'm running premium. I'm changing the filter. It was hard to blow threw blew it out backwards with a compressor got better so I'm putting a new one in.

 

[sledneck_03]

Yah dragon what? 800 I'm assuming?

Super store coop or shell, shell in it today.

Uh, no. It was the first year they came out.. 07? 06? there was no 800 that year.

Fact is, metal fatigue occurs, pistons ovalize and tolerences go in all 2 strokes.

Piston kit= $300. Short block 2G's? The cranks are good for 7000km prolly.

Small investment for peace of mind, IMO. But, like I said good luck... LOL

I would say plugs are a little dark/rich. But not enough to drop your rpm. I would check the clutches for wear. Also how old are clutch springs.

 

[sledneck_03]

New plugs.
New primary spring
New secondary spring
New 115 belt
Just cleaned ves

Yah I guess luck is it.

95 xlt had 10,000 miles on it.
2000 xc 700 5700 miles
2003 xc 600 5400 miles

Non ever had re builds.

Luck....

 

[CUSO]

Remind me not to tag along with you in the mountains.. LOL

Today's sleds, or at least within the last 10 years are pushed harder for HP, thus shorter life.

But then again, you must just ride the flats?

You need to adjust the fuel map which is done by computer programming. You either have to buy a unit called a Power Commander or find someone who has a custom fuel map for your sled. Here is one on amazon. Starting Line Products Power Commander V Fuel System Controller 70-128 : Amazon.com : Automotive

Personally I would leave fuel map it as is. Are the plugs pulled after a full out run or just general riding? Change the fuel filter.

Did you do this plug check at WOT , hit the kill botton , with the throttle still wide open !!
