indicated if the vehicle is used in rainy or
dusty areas, on uneven surfaces or on
racetracks.
Check, clean or change all the spark
plugs, one by one.
Check the spark plugs every 7500 km
(4687 mi), change them every 15000 km
(9375 mi).
In case of use on racetracks, change the
spark plugs every 3750 km (2343 mi).
Periodically remove the spark plugs and
clean them carefully, removing carbon
deposits; change them if necessary.
Even if only one spark plug needs
changing, always replace all of them.
To reach the spark plugs:
Before carrying out the following
operations, let the engine and the
silencer cool down until they reach
room temperature, in order to avoid
burns.
◆
Lift the fuel tank, see p. 75 (LIFTING
THE FUEL TANK)
NOTE
The vehicle is equipped with two
spark plugs per cylinder (A) and (B).
The following operations refer to the two
spark plugs of one cylinder, but are valid
for both cylinders.
Carry out all the operations indicated on
the first spark plug and then repeat
them on the second spark plug of the
same cylinder.
For the removal, proceed as follows:
Do not invert the position of the two
spark plug caps.
Do not remove the two spark plug caps
at the same time.
◆
Remove the cap (1) of the spark plug (2).
◆
Remove any trace of dirt from the spark
plug base.
◆
Fit the special spanner provided in the
tool kit on the spark plug.
◆
Insert the 13 mm fork spanner provided
in the tool kit in the hexagonal seat of the
spark plug spanner.
◆
Unscrew the spark plug and extract it
from its seat, taking care to prevent dust
or other substances from getting inside
the cylinder.
