I know the E-tec and most Ficht engines' spark plugs need to be indexed, but the owner's manual of my 1998 Ficht 115 Intruder makes no mention of this. The original owner made no mention of plug indexing, just that the EMM had been remapped with a recall.
The engine shows no sign of being updated in any other way, such as having the heads "pinned" (no hex bolt visible beside the spark plug thread hole).
The previous owner raved about the engines performance and I've been using it all summer with no problems. The plugs get coated with black carbon but not enough to foul.
Is it possible this Ficht model did not need indexing?
