DRZ400SM Spark Plug Install! (Standard vs Iridium)⚡️⚡️

For some reason the clip of me removing the boot was cut out. Just pull it up. It should pop right off! Enjoy!

Iridium made a massive difference to my Suzuki Katana. Engine felt stronger and run way better with more 💪

[@linksgarage1985]

It seems to be a bit smoother for sure!

[@jacobhuang5037]

[@linksgarage1985]

You can actually just blow air in it and pop the plug boot right out. 💪🏼

Sweet wrap. I want to steal it.

[@CraigSmith568]

Nice. Had no idea that hole was there.

[@linksgarage1985]

Yep! You can actually just blow in the hole and it will pop the spark plug boot right out. No need to even pull it. I should have showed it that way.

[@linksgarage1985]

Yea. I wanted an MRD. But I’m actually very happy with the Delkevic. Had it about 3500 miles and I’m really impressed with it. I love the look, and sound. Plus the wide mouth opening it looks so different from anything else out there. Thanks for watching!

I think they adjusted my carb wrong idk but I have never had this problem before I have a 350 drm that I haven't changed the spark plug in in about 4 years yeah I know its time but will still crank up and go the 2023 keeps fouling them!!???!

[@Scooter_built]

Everyone says to get the MRD but everyone has the MRD I went to a group ride and 6/7 bikes had the MRD. I’ll be the odd one out with my delkevic lol

Yea… I never wanted to be like anyone else. Different is cool 💪🏼💪🏼

[@maxwell9734]

The electric current on the Iridium plug looks solid, the original one dances around more.. what makes the Iridium one so much better? And, how did you Test those plugs? I haven't seen that done before... pretty cool! What voltage ⚡ ...or, is that just simply house current?

[@linksgarage1985]

It’s a special spark plug tester I have. Can dial it from 500-6000 RPMs. Pretty cool little gadget. I have a digital microscope I might make a super up close vid about the difference in plug types. I have a bunch of those laying around.

[@maxwell9734]

@@linksgarage1985 That is Cool! I could see, and hear, (the high pitched sound) as you dialed in and out with voltage. Ha, I thought maybe it was an extra device on a battery charger or something... 🤨 That would be great to see that magnified.
