liquifire_freak,
The first thing I would do is install standard NGK B9ES spark plugs. The BUE surface gap require a very healthy ignition system to fire. If your system is weak, this could be your problem, the bog is a plug droping out.

Andy,
The BUE are surface gap spark plugs from NGK.

They were originally recommended for the cdi system.

Thanks Harley they just have an electrode and spark jumps to the outside of the plug right? I have physically seen new plugs like that but never in an actual sled.
