Plugs coming loose

[907RiDeR]

my plugs came loose on my 09 m1000, a lot of oil on the top of the heads, went and bought new plugs and cranked them down snug. before i did this the sled was cutting out alot. but now that i have new plugs and they are tight the sled still cuts out. could riding around with loose plugs cause any kinda of damage to the engine??

Is the sled stock?
Riding with loose plugs should not hurt anything unless they pull the threads out from backing out too far.
Usually loose plugs is from deto.

Plugs coming loose usually indicates problems like detonation. Stock sled? Good fresh fuel in it?

i put a slp high intake kit on it and timbersled side panel vents, other than that everything is stock. filled up with jerry jugs and that is when it started the cut out ****t. but then it has had fresh gas from the pump for about 3 rides now.

Warning!

Your plugs are loose from detonating, caused by running too lean/ hot.

You will burn your engine out quickly running as you are.

You need an efi fuel controller to boost your fuel and run lean/cool.

A fuel/ air gauge would also help with reading your temperature.

Good luck if you haven't burnt down already!@
