Hey
my bike is not really a mini but i dont know any one else too ask
my yz80's spark plug is playing up i think its running too rich with oil. my dad was currently running it on 33:1 but he then put it 40:1 because it wasnt working right.
today my bike stalled again and i think it was the plug.
should i maybe run my bike 50:1 or get a better plug maybe?
what do u think Dr Pitboss

I would lean off the needle clip and adjust the air screw.my mates cr 125 did the same thing. plugs were lasting half a day till we did this which fixed it.make sure your needle clip is in the middle position and start from there.
