the photo on the NGK website.

Although the motor runs pretty smoothly. I running with a 130 degree
thermostat. What should I look at adjusting?

This reminds me to give mine a check while we are at it. But before I
do, I am curious to know if anyone ever bothers to clean em, and if so,
with what, or do you always replace? I had always just replaced them. My
thinking is compared to an engine rebuild or replacement, the investment
is worth it in my mind. The engine in question in this case is a 2004
Yamaha 300 HPDI.


The plugs is the family ride looked fine at 100 000 miles, but we
replaced them anyway. Platinum points of course. Two hours labor to
change the plugs.
