Scooters - 125 to 300 => Agility 125 => Topic started by: mike11148 on April 24, 2016, 07:24:26 PM

I decided to check the spark plug in my new agility 125 during my first oil change.I cleaned it up,checked the gap and thought I could use my fingers to hand tighten it to prevent cross threading.I did not use the socket to hold the plug and give me more length.It dropped down inside the black plastic shroud under the engine head.I do not see any easy way to get it out.I did install a new plug the smarter way using a socket without issue.I drove the bike a few miles and did not hear anything.Am I looking at damage by leaving the plug down there?Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.Thanks

There is a 1971 VW Beetle somewhere in the Midwest with a new Bosch plug in the engine shroud thanks to yours truly. Didn't have a magnet tool but did have more Bosch plugs.

Well the magnet tool did the trick.I should have looked for a flexible one as I made a non flexible one into a one time use flexible one.For 5 bucks I could not be happier not having to worry about which bump I hit was going to send that plug flying somewhere it should not be.Thanks again for all your help.

It is safe....just be careful with spark, fire and explosion.
