hi everyone, i'm new to this site but i have been reading posts for a while. i'm having issues with my srx. this weekend i had to change my centre plug out at least 5 times in 2 days. once was the pto side and the other 5 times was the centre plug. it seems that when i shut the machine down and restart it the plug gets wet and will not fire. when it's cold in the morning it will run fine until i shut it down. when i switch it out and restart it's fine again. i have approx. 17000km and i replaced the rings and pistons last winter. didn't need too but i figured i might as well just to refreshen the top end. worked perfectly last year but since we have not had any snow here i couldn't try it out until this past weekend after i cleaned the carbs. i'm wondering if i might have screwed up the float level in the middle carb when i was cleaning it. i usually do that right in the machine and i recall it slipping out of my hand and bumping the side of the motor very slightly. would this cause me to have this problem? does anyone have any suggestions or ideas? any help would be greatly appreciated. 
could this be casued by a needle/seat slightly leaking??
