The last time I knew a whiteish plug ment she was going to blow. Is this true? I really hope not. I honestly think its the original plug because its rough looking. The quad barely idled and started like a pig but since the I put the new plug in today she idles fine and starts right up. Heres some pics of the plug. Its kind of hard to see so sorry

P.S. Today I changed my oil as well but didn't replace the o ring on the oil filter because it looked fine but now its dripping. Can I take of the oil filter cover without all the oil draining out of the motor?

Drive the bike around for about 20 minutes and pull the new plug and have a look at it. An old plug can be tough to read.

It should be tan or light brownish

From the first pic its looks like its lean, that plug looks really old get a new one and take note where it stumbles or pops.

About the oil if you tilt the quad enough you can just take the cover off without changing the oil.
