4. Remove the spark plug and the metal washer.
Checking the Spark Plug
1. Look at the center of the spark plug (Figure 15). If you
see light brown or gray on the insulator, the engine is
operating properly. A black coating on the insulator
usually means that the air cleaner is dirty.
Important: Never Clean the spark plug. Always
replace the spark plug when it has a black coating,
worn electrodes, an oily film, or cracks.
