ticket2ride Posted January 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 ..what sort of symptoms did you get from the failing stators? ...anything specific - cutting out when warm or something sporadic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sivy Posted January 30, 2007 Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 I have found that 315's need a resistor type spark plug (ngk ones with an R in the part number) If you don't use these sometimes the motor missfires and generally runs poorly, however if you stop the motor and restart it it will be fine again for a while. If you fit the correct spark plug you get no such problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
