What would be the best plug for my wifes 98 Formula 583. Currently use BR9ES but se fouls them all the time. Her riding style is very laid back (slow) and her sled never sees the top RPM's. If I ride it the plugs never foul. Should I switch to a hotter plug? BR8ES?
Thanks

the stock plug is the BR9ES. You might want to look at your carb settings instead. If you are constantly fouling plugs it may be running too rich. If you lean your carbs out a bit you will likely stop fouling plugs and fuel mileage will increase as well.

Check to make sure the plugs have the proper gap. Out of the box, they are
usually way off. If it's still stock jetting, it's most likely on the rich
side and could possible go smaller on the mains.

Thanks, I will check what Jets are in it. What is the stock size? And what would everyone recommend?
Thanks

Stick with BR9ES. YOur fouling becasue of either to much oil or your running rich.
