Trying to solve my "fouling" issues with the starting plugs. What plugs do you guys use? Anyone tried the anti fouling adapters talked about here several days ago? Thanks, John
(quoted from post at 18:32:47 05/01/12) Champion's D89D number turned into 543, but still the same plug. Brillman has them, and I've gotten NAPA to order them for me (after they quit laughing). Salty - $6-8 a pop last time. Never had one foul in 50 years of being around those gas start diesels if they're gapped correctly. Also, never shut one off and let it run out of gas, but always made sure to run it through the gas side before shutting down to make for easier start next time. Good luck.
(quoted from post at 21:12:07 05/01/12) thats is total crock. no such thing as diesel on the plugs or having to switch to gas to burn it out. the gas is for starting the diesel engine and absolutly no sense to switch it to gas for shut down. diesel never ever see the spark plugs. idle for ten minutes and and shut down on diesel as a diesel should be shut down. and if you dont believe me then start it and get it running on diesel and romove the spark plugs and you will see there is no diesel compressoin getting to the plugs. if there is then you have a problem with the little valves.
(quoted from post at 11:40:58 05/02/12) i know this because there is absolutly no diesel engine combustion that takes place at the spark plugs. it is a separate chamber that when the little valves are open it decreases the compression to allow gas running. as i said the only way is to get diesel contamination on the plugs would be if the small gas valves where leaking. i have not seen a manual that states to increase throttle first , but then i have never looked for starting instructions. but that dont seem right to me. i switch the decompression lever to diesel first, and then give it a little throttle. but if thats what your doing is filling the cyl"s with diesel first then yes you will foul plugs. i really dont think that is correct though. this is the way i have always done it and no problem with plugs or starting cause i am isolating the plugs before diesel reaches them.
(quoted from post at 04:26:03 05/04/12) What is the difference between running on gas then pulling lever to diesel after shutdown or shutting down on diesel?
