  1. I seem to have flooded my 848 after the winter hibernation, its started fine it then seems have started spluttering and choked up the battery started giving up so a catalogue of errors to be fair. now I'm planning on replacing the plugs to be honest so just after a heads up on which kind of plugs are best recommended to replace with??? or due they need replacing??? other than that has anyone else experienced this problem???
     
  2. I dabbled with iridium plugs and only had prob. So I stick to the stockers.
     
  3. As above
     
  4. Plugs don't need replacing unless you're do for a change. if you flooded it, it doesnt wreck the plugs.
    If you want to start it right away after flooding you can remove the plugs and clean them but no need to replace.
    If you're in a hurry and you think its flooded (and you have a good battery). Crank her for a while (no throttle) and don't turn ignition off (when turned on you get a prime). Crank enough times and the fuel will be gone and she'll fire up. Just don't leave the starter on so long you burn it out.
