Maybe one of your choke plungers is hanging open sometimes???
Are your carbs clean? Should be able to run all season on one set of plugs.....
any mods?

I agree carb problem. Keep in mind when your sled is running great its running on the main jet and needle circuit. When you first fire up the sled its running on choke and pilot jet and fuel screw. Verify these circuits are clean, adjusted and sized correctly.

I had the same problem with mine, switched plugs to NGK BRE 9AY. Theyre more of an antifouling plug, since i put those in, no problems at idle

check those reeds right away, the v-force 3s are known for not lasting long and if you have a broken reed you will definitely foul plugs

My buddy's 98 SRX has the same problem. They tend to run rich at idle. Use the BR9ECS plugs as they will last longer before fouling, the copper core aids in keeping you from detonating at WOT on a hot engine.
My 2000 SRX has carb issues, so I foul 2 plugs only. Gotta synchronize, rebuild.
Better yet, avoid idling -- PIN IT!
