shock.

traumatic amputation, or laceration.

important that the correct spark plug is used, otherwise,
engine damage can occur.

Check Spark Plug Gap
Use a spark plug feeler gauge to check the gap between the
two electrodes. When the gap is correct, the gauge will drag
slightly as you pull it through the gap.
If necessary, use the spark plug gauge to adjust the gap by
gently bending the curved electrode without touching the
center electrode or the porcelain.
