Hi all, great site first post.
I plan on adding a pipe and modify the air box on my 07 Kymco Super 9 air cooled scooter soon. I wanted to get a plug reading for baseline comparisons when I do the mods and found my plug to be white.
Why would it be white, with the stock set up? I put in a new plug (recommended same as stock) and get the same results. Carb adjustments don't affect my WOT plug chops, as mentioned it's completely stock.
What should I check? Clogged jet? Air leak (how and where to do this?) Air filter is clean, all bolts to the manifold and carb are tight and performance is the same now (3000KM) as it was when new. Could it be the pair valve now included with the scooter to meet emissions requirements giving false readings? Of course I could put in a bigger jet but imagine the stock set up should be jetted properly. I am at a loss and want to get whatever problem I have fixed before I go modding.
Thanks, pic of said plug;
