INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

SPARK PLUGS

You should inspect spark plugs periodically
for carbon deposits. When
accumulates on a spark plug, a strong spark
may not be produced. Remove carbon
deposits with a wire or pin and adjust the
spark plug gap.
To access the spark plugs,
1. disconnect the coupler while pushing the
release lever,
2. remove the bolts, and
3. pull the spark plug boots.

• When disconnecting the spark plug
cables, pull on the boot, not on the
cable itself. Pulling on the cable can
damage it.
• When installing the spark plugs,
screw them in with your fingers to
avoid stripping the threads. Tighten
with a torque wrench to 1.3–2.2 kg-
m (13.0–22.0 N-m, 9.4–15.9 lb-ft). Do
not allow contaminants to enter the
engine through the spark plug holes
when the plugs are removed.
• Never use spark plugs with the
wrong thread size or length.
