--- End quote ---

The only way to determine if it is the plug or the coil is firstly to find the bad cylinder, then move tat plug to the neighbouring cylinder on one side and the coil to the neighbouring cylinder on the other side.  Wherever the fault moves to is the faulty component.

Yes, sparkplug prices have gone insane.  Sparkplugs I paid ZAR73.00 for in June last year (2022) are now costing ZAR211.88.

Thanks again Jughead.  I pulled the plug is cylinder #3 cylinder.  when I pulled the plug is was oily wet looking.  I used my "no need to pull radiator" technique and had the new plug in in less than 1.5hrs including pulling all the Tupperware.   Now, bleeding all the air out is another story, that takes me several hours of just letting the engine warm and then let her cool a few times over the course of a full day. .  So, I have successfully replace plugs and coils without draining the entire radiator out.  for the rider's left three cylinders I had to drain about 2 cups.  for the riders right side cylinders I have successfully coils and plugs without drain the radiator at all.  riding season is now officially here in  my area
