 |
|
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
I'm changing plugs in my 503 and I was wondering what the gap should be?
The plugs are NGK BR8ES.
Thank you!

My book says ".016- .020". I use a flat feeler guage & set to a snug .017".

My 503 with gual Ducati ignition is supposed to have plug gaps of .014 - .018 per the manual. I can be hard to start if the plug gap is larger than spec.

The manual I have came with my 503 DCDI purchased in late '98; I wonder if Rotax changed the gap spec. sometime after that...........
