A loose wire connection to the spark plug could cause it to misfire, which can lead to a loss of power and poor engine performance. However, it is unlikely to be related to the fuse issue you described. It's more likely that there is a short circuit or another electrical issue causing the fuse to blow. You may want to check the wiring for any damage or shorts and ensure that all connections are secure and properly grounded. If you're not comfortable with electrical work, it's recommended that you take your bike to a qualified mechanic or electrician for diagnosis and repair.

The only manual way to clean it is to physically strip the engine to access the window. There are some oil additives you can run for a few minutes prior to changing the oil and oil filter that may help clear the window. Lastly, removing and cleaning the oil pan/sump along with regular oil changes will keep the window clean
