Why does a motorcycle spark plug often get flooded?
1 Answers
Motorcycle spark plugs frequently getting flooded may be due to an overly rich air-fuel mixture, excessively high oil level, weak spark, leakage, abnormal ignition by the ignition system, or mechanical faults. Methods to determine if a spark plug is damaged: Remove the spark plug and observe its appearance color to assess its condition. A normal spark plug's insulator skirt and electrodes should appear gray-white, gray-yellow, or light brown. If the spark plug has oil stains or deposits, the spark plug itself is not damaged. If the spark plug tip shows signs of blistering, black streaks, or similar phenomena.
