    Hi all,
    I have my first Triumph an America EFI 2008.
    Now Santa brought me some short Tors for Xmas and having fitted them i have taken Tallulah out on only a couple of occasions ( due to work commitments and the weather). My question is I want to check the spark plugs to see what they are like as i have been told it would indicate if i need a re- map or not.
    Any help from you experts would be most helpful.

    Thanks
    Odgy

    I wouldnt worry to much plenty of folk fitted short Tors without any problems at all, just a bit of friendly popping on de-acceleration

    Can you still get Gunsons Colourtune? Had one years ago for the car - remember it being cheap and easy to use. Essentially a see through spark plug that allows you to see the colour of the spark and thus assess whether the mixture is too rich or too lean.

    Hi all thanks for info, there is a slight popping on de-acelleration, so i am happy with that. All i need now is to get a spark spanner that allows me to get the plugs out as there isnt a lot of roomo_O
