4. SPARK PLUG SERVICE
NOTICE
An incorrect spark plug can cause engine damage.
If the engine has been running, it will be very hot. Allow the
engine to cool before proceeding.

wrench, then remove the fan cover.
2. Disconnect the spark plug cap, and remove any dirt from
around the spark plug area.
3. Remove the spark plug with a 5/8-inch spark plug wrench.
4. Inspect the spark plug. Replace it if the electrodes are
worn, or if the insulator is cracked, chipped, or fouled.
5. Measure the spark plug electrode gap with a suitable
gauge.
6. Correct the gap, if necessary, by carefully bending the side
electrode.
7. Make sure the sealing washer is attached and install the
spark plug carefully, by hand, to avoid cross-threading.

plug wrench to compress the washer.
If reinstalling the used spark plug, tighten
1/8 ~ 1/4 turn after the spark plug seats.
If installing a new spark plug, tighten 1/2 turn after the
spark plug seats.
