spark plug life

Post by philipnoyb » Mon Mar 15, 2004 1:20 pm

Hey All, I clean and check the gap of my spark plug every 3k miles, but at what mileage should the stock plug be replaced? The bike runs great and there's never been any fouling other than normal use. I currently have 8k so my 9k service is coming up pretty soon on my A-15. Thanks! Philip

I searched the archives but could not find anything on how many miles one should go before it is necessary to change the spark plug. My KLR has 13K miles and is still running good on the original plug. But it is getting about time to change it? rw [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

You could probably change it, but I left my original plug in there for 42k before i couldn't stand it any more and swapped in a new one when I did my regular 35,000-mile valve adjustment. The gap was pretty wide, but it was still sparking away happily. Neither the valve adjustment nor the fresh plug made my bike run any better.

Spark plug replacement is in 7,500 mile increments according to my 09's owner's manual. Sure, they last a lot longer with a stock engine running today's unleaded gasoline. For $3, it's too inexpensive to not change. Heck, splurge and get an iridium equiv. It's still not a high dollar item. =) eddie

22,000 miles and the same plug. Replaced a lot of other stuff, but the plug is just fine so far. -- Darren Clark http://www.flickr.com/photos/84373829@N00/ 2004 KLR-650 Fowlerville, MI transalp 1 wrote:

Gotta ask: How much difficulty are the the higher mileage plugs offering when they do get removed. Think dissimilar metals in close, tight proximity under heat & pressure for a long time. That scares me somehow. eddie
