  1. Really? I'm referring to the little metal pin electrode that connects from the HT lead, where the spark jumps from, to the arm that connects to earth via the screw thread on the engine. The edge of the pin has a slight white halo on it, the rest of the plug is a nice biscuit brown, with a little excess carbon on the outer threaded ring of the plug. I was wondering if, whilst the plug suggests ideal, if not slightly rich tuning, maybe the idle was set a bit lean, causing the white halo? Or is it just nothing? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  2. All up to this point was done with the 150 on 10" b&c, some of the cuts were about 15" too Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  3. Checked a plug on a saw today, it's biscuit brown as it should be, but there is a white halo on the electrode, does this mean its running slightly lean or is it nothing? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  7. Keep your eye on the plug colour if its not been retuned, might be running a little lean on high Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
