My buddy just bought a 98 SRX600 last year with 3000km on it. It ran great all last winter. This fall he bought some NGK BR9ECS plugs to put in. He then took it out for a quick ride in the field before putting it away.
Today he went to take it out and it was only rinning on one cylinder. We found out that the middle and exhause side plugs were fouled. So he put in new plugs again, took it for a spin, and let it idle for a few min. then shut it off while we moved some other sleds around. When we went to fire it up to put it away, it was again running on 1 cylinder. The good one was again the PTO side, the other 2 weren't working.
So a 3rd set of plugs later we fired up the sled, and loaded it up on his truck to bring to the dealer. BTW it ran great with the new plugs.
He did have old fuel in it from last winter, without ading any fuel stabilizer, and it was reg(87 octane) gas. He also hasn't had it in for a tune-up since he bought it.
Just wondering if you guys have an idea what could be wrong. We are thinking the power valves, are eiter dirty, or need to be adjusted. Or it could be dirty carbs.
