Melted Spark Plug

[rickdog]

I had a melted spark plug on the right side so I replaced it . Now banshee will not idle. What is wrong?

You could have an air leak or the jetting is lean. Both can cause you to melt a spark plug. I would be checking the compression to see if you have a hole in the piston.

Odds are you blew it up. I would agree with an air leak, check your boost bottle/cross over tube for leaks.

Blew up piston or motor? Should I replace pistons or motor?

if u melted a spark plug the piston on that side is fubar

 

hate to break it to ya but if u drain ur coolent and pop ur heads off what ul probly find is a piston that is missing alot of matereal, cracked or has a huge hole.

 

not trying to be a dick but ive seen it happen alot i wouldnt even dick with a compression test pull ur top end and see ir you need to bore and get oversise or just hone and replace. its a 2 atroke these things will happen alot.

 

good luck buddy
