Hey guys,
I recently fouled a plug in my 200ES so I went and bought 2 more just in case it happend again. Well after aboout 2-3 hrs of riding. It wouln't start anymore, so I pulled the plug and sure enough it was fouled too. So I put in the last one the other day, I've put about 1 hr on it so far but I'm really affraid its going to foul too. What exactly do I need to do in order to make that stop. Do I make the mixture leaner, or something like that? Any help would be great, thanks.

When you say make the mix leaner, are you reffering to mixing oil in the gas? That model is a four stroke, and doesnt require oil in the gas. If youre reffering to gas/air ratio, make sure your air cleaner isnt plugged, and then you may want put a smaller main jet in your carb. If it ran fine previously, there may be other issues not related to jetting.

Check the air filter if it just started doing it out of the blue.

Hey guys,
I fixed it. I ajusted the pilot skrew I think. It would revv then start poping really loud...A sign of a fouled plug to me, so I looked at it and it was fouled again. I cleaned it and put it in but it started again after a minute of riding. So I turned it back on and revved it some--while ajust the skrew and it eventualy was fixed. Now it runs fine and doesnt fould. Thanks for your help guys.
