Why are my spark plugs fouling on my KTM 85sx?
I have a KTM 85sx. Spark plugs are very easily fouled. I found that two or three spark plugs were needed to get through a day of riding. This wasn’t just a case of not riding hard enough, even while flogging it they seemed to foul. I was told that perhaps my Stator (generator) was buggered and was giving a weak start.
Are there any problems with my ktm85 SX?
I too have a KTM85 sx (2005 Model), it was fouling plugs like no tomorrow, I would have to carry several plugs just to get through a day at the track, even tried Iridium plugs. I too thought the young fella wasn’t ringing it’s neck, so I’d jump on it and flog it… but still fouled plugs.
How to fix a locked KTM Netrider connection?
Do a plug chop. This was more standard road racing practice in the 2T days but no reason it won’t apply to an MX engine. Find a place you can wind it up to flat out in top.

Why is my RMK 850 still fouling plugs?
My rmk 850 has 45 hours on it and will still foul a plug every now and then always on the PTO side, it runs to rich, especially when runing in low rpm’s comming down a long decent or side hilling in technicle tree ridding it will load up with fuel bog out and sometimes foul a plug. There needs to be some sort of reflash in my opinion.
What should I do if my Polaris plugs keep fouling?
If you foul more then 2 sets of plugs after 2 hours the most important thing you can do is a leak down test. Walking around in circles waiting for Polaris to solve the problem is as close to insanity as you are going to get. Mid to high leak down…….Weird and bad symptoms always loom around.
Is the 850 still bogging and fouling plugs after break in?
Have a great season. From this point on, all vendors/mfg’s promoting Pre-Season tiered sales programs, in the Polaris Forums, that are not paid advertisers will be appropriately moved to the swapmeet section of the forums. It is well past the 10hr break in and still struggling to run clean.
