hard to start
Hey guys, I just changed my oil and spark plug(didn't need to), usually it started in the first kick, however the start right after the change was a bitch to get going!!! is this normal??? will it go back to first kick start? thanks, Dan.

As long as the oil level is correct, take that out of the equation. Is the new plug the same brand/# as the old? Is it gapped properly?
Yes, they really do let me drive the Train!

Check the gap on your new plug. Make sure it sparks when grounded to the frame.

Why did you put water in your gas when you changed your oil and plug?
