My 97 TSL770 burnt a spark plug last weekend. I replaced both plugs and both are getting fire but now it won't start. Plenty of fuel in the tank but can't tell if I am getting any into the heads. Any suggestions? I am also wondering if I got the right plugs and what they are supposed to be gapped. It has always been pretty hard to start until it gotted warmed up.

Thanks,

The NGK book ngksparkplugs.com calls for a BR9EYA. If you gap the plug at .30 you should be ok. I would check the compresion on the cylinders.
