Problem???
I forgot to clean around the spark plug before taking it off. There is a little dirt that went in there... What should I do? Can it damage something? I'm not very common with how engines are made. If there is any dirt that went in, where did it go?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Could try sucking it out with something or turn engine over with plug out & see if it comes out.

could it? yes. will it? probably not. it will most likely just get blow out with the exhaust when you start the bike. i would try and get it out though. good luck and let us know how you make out.

I'll try the vacuum.
But what does this mean:
if the engine is at TDC an adaptor for the shopvac probably wont work.....
What if it's at TDC of the exhaust stroke?
What does TDC stand for?

RE: Problem???
i said it wouldnt work because it would create a vacuume in the combustion chamber and no air will come out, if you do that take the plugs out of the side of the motor to turn it over with a ratchet, and open the intake valves a little bit so air can come in from the intake and the shopvac will suck it all out... with all the valves closed it would essentially not move any air in the motor.... stand under? or i could just be thinking about it too much.....
