i figured out the por15 it went on real nice, i just experimented on my bumper and the quad has been sittin for like a mont i have veerything covered except the bumper because the por15 rep said it is UV sensitive and may fade in the sun, i havent seen any fading at all

Well if the 155 was black (rich) then I would ask you if you did the plug test correctly, i mean it looks to me that that plug was barley used.. To do a plug test correctly, you have to get it goin down a road at WOT, then pull in the clutch and hit the kill button at the same time and roll home and take a look... This will give you an acurate reaing of the main jet. It is important not to let it idel before you check it, just go from Wide Open Throttle to kill the engine then test it... It should be a tanish brown.. I little black is good also, Rich never hurt an engine, it just lacks performance. And like pappy said, its better to change it now than to have to push it through the snow because you burnt a hole through the piston.

Get a 152 jet... What kinda gas were ya runnin? That blug looks aweful CLEAN to me. The ceramic sleeve comes white.. So thats why i say it looks clean... It should be black, and the ceramic parts should be tan/brown
