Quick question.

Does the check engine light turn on when you foul a plug(s)?

 

[GatorBuell]

No, but you will know if you have one fouled. Do you have the check engine light on?

 

[XBChrisalto]

No, that's the thing, I've been reading everyone's posts about how they foul very easily from letting your bike run for a couple of mins. or short periods of time. To tell you the truth I do that often but have never had the light turn on or had any problems. Guess i'm just a bit lucky.

When you're bike sounds like a VW bus, you've fouled a plug. They don't really foul that much. Normally just happens to new riders because no one has told them yet.

Wait a second Dave, are you trying to say that you a VW Bus sounds bad?! I'm taking personal offense to that.

 

[XBChrisalto]

Thaks for the heads up on the ugly VW Bus sound J/K

Nice ride by the way, must be fun traveling on that thing with the buddies! [up]

SHAGGIN WAGON!
As for the plugs, if you start it for short periods in cold weather it will definitely cake those plugs quick!!

 

[dave_xb12r]

I'm saying that because it really does sound like a VW bus!! The difference is the VW bus is faster than a Buell with a fouled plug.

No cold weather down where I live in Texas, it's 101 degrees fahrenheit
I'm going to stop the short interval engine running, I might run out of luck one of these days.

Impossible, Foiled or not, a Buell will NEVER be slower than a Bus.

My Bus goes from 0-60....MAYBE

Do plugs fowl less in hot Hawaii as compared to a cooler climate?
