      It was only an Amazon fire 7, but it was so rubbish that I never used it and I had finally managed to find something it could actually do and then bloody dropped it! I'll keep my eye out for another cheap 7 or fire 8 as my 5 year old daughter got one last Xmas and it's been alright.

    changed the spark plugs on the car and now its knocking! Great

    1. Nitroholic

      Nitroholic

      I would swap the old plugs back in one by one.....see if the knock goes away.

       

      It's not unknown to get a duff plug. I once restored an old Kawasaki triple...and fitted a brand new set of NGK plugs. Refused to fire on all 3....but if I swapped hte plugs over...the problem moved. Put an old plug in...and it ran fine. Took the plug back to the shop and ogt another.

       

       

    2. Strugglecuddle7

      Strugglecuddle7

      I put the old ones back in and it still knocked, ive ordered another set and should be here tomorrow

    3. Lone-wolf

      Lone-wolf

      @Nitroholic i also had a Kawasaki triple and had lots of problems with plugs, took ages to get it running on 3...........i would love another S1

      I have nothing horrible on my record, we used to steal milk floats/buses and drive them around etc. I have never had an issue with getting jobs and i have always been honest with employers about having a criminal record, and even they laughed when i told them i had been to prison for stealing buses!
