:evil: I have had this problem with my 3 wheeler since I bought it: About every month I have to buy a new spark plug because it keeps fowling them. Can anyone help me out who know more about it than I do?

It's a 1982 Honda atc 185s, 4 stroke. I do go hard on it, and it just dies every once in a while.

Haha....no offense, but I have to put up the BS flag here. You have one of two options here, either the Tri-Z is exempt of this rule, or you just need proper jetting. I can puttt around on the Z ALLLL day, no problems. I let it idle for 20 minutes just for the hell of it, then I got on it and rode it with no problems, nothing. Like I said either the Z is an exception or you just need proper jetting.

i have a 185, when i got it, it fowled plugs like meat box fowls his pants (just kiddin buddy), all i had to do was lean out the mixture a bit tho and it cleaned up its behavior.
