Changing the Spark Plugs
You will find it easier to change spark plugs if
the engine is cold. Always change one spark
plug at a time. This helps avoid getting the wires
mixed up.
1. Remove the center cover on the engine
rocker cover (DOHC Only).
2. Using a clean cloth, remove any dirt that has
accumulated around the spark plug so it
cannot fall into the cylinder when the spark
plug is removed.
3. To remove the spark plug catde, pull straight
up on the insulated connector, not the cable.
Pulling on the cable may damage the carbon

core conductor.
