What is the spark plug socket size? For my mako
You want a NGK BM6A. I put one in my mako and it ran much better. Came from the factory with a chinese made Torch plug.

Ice has been gone for about two weeks so I was putting all my stuff so I got the auger out and started it up to run it for a few minutes. It started second pull and ran like a champ like it always does so after idling I revved it up and down some then idled for 20 sec and when I started to slowly rev it up again it just quit like I turned off the switch. I waited a couple minutes and tried to start it again and it started after 5 pulls but quit after running for 10 sec and wont start anymore. What is wrong with it? I bought it in December and used it a ton running gas with no ethanol with amsoil 80:1 and seafoam and ran awesome all year. I dont know much about motors so what should I do now?
i got a z71 i bought new last year. used it 3 xs. ran good on 2 trips then refused to start on the third. brought it in the shack and after warming she started. cut good for 4 holes then on the 5th started to bog bad. would start right up but had no power under load. even w/ half choke it still ran like crap. was ultra careful where i bought my gas and added startron like i do to all my 2 cycles. brought it home and drained carb. dumped out gas tank in clear jar. no silt. put fresh high test. started right up. but still no power under load. wouldn't stall just would turn slow. only about 30 holes on her. i checked all that was mentioned on here. could be fuel. I'm going to put a small inline filter on it once i get it going again. brought it to my mechanic last week. hopefully he can figure it out. thankfully i still have my old jiffy and was able to finish the season off.
Hey Rebless, your repeating yourself. Is your memory failing you?
i just hope my mechanic finds something minor as my warranty expired last year. I've never had problems leaving gas in my 2 strokes as long as i treated w/ startron.
Can't get anything other then the Chinese Made ones now. I have 2 sets as well and I just touch them up after every other day of use. Keep one sharp and then when you take off a pair put the others on. Just make sure you touch them up when you do.
Are there any bad a$$ mods for these Eskimo augers mine is a 51 shark 8. If not there should be
