I think the mannuel said every 1,000 miles but I(this may just be me) would change mine every year. It really just depends on how bad it looks I assume.

i got the ped with 1000 miles on it and i put 600 on it. so im at 1600 miles on the stock plug. would the plug be the reason y it doesent go faster than 15 20 mph when its cold? once warmed up it runs normal

well what is the outside temp do ride in? if its colder out its going to take more time to warm up then when its hot outside. try a different S. plug, see what happans. If a new plug doesn't work let it sit and warm up for 3+ minutes that always had mine running good. I'm sure if you get a new plug it'll work better.

Spark Plug

I just bought a new spark plug for my 84 spree... it had a "ring" (looked like a washer") at the top of the part you screw in...

Does that need to be removed? Or Do I keep it on?

its a seal because the head does not have taper which seals it.
