Spark Plug Replacement

Removal Procedure
Caution: Observe the following service precautions:
• Allow the engine to cool before removing the spark plugs. Attempting to remove spark plugs
from a hot engine can cause the spark plugs to seize. This can damage the cylinder head
threads.
• Clean the spark plug recess area before removing the spark plug. Failure to do so can result
in engine damage due to dirt or foreign material entering the cylinder head, or in
contamination of the cylinder head threads. Contaminated threads may prevent proper
seating of the new spark plug.
• Use only the spark plugs specified for use in the vehicle. Do not install spark plugs that are
either hotter or colder than those specified for the vehicle. Installing spark plugs of another
type can severely damage the engine.
1. Turn OFF the ignition.
2. Loosen the 4 bolts and remove the engine cover.
