For recommended spark plug, see chapter
"Technical data".
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Fitting the wrong spark plug type can
damage the engine.
1. Remove the ignition cable shoe and clean
around the spark plug.
2. Remove the spark plug with a 13/16" (21 mm)
spark plug socket wrench.
3. Check the spark plug. Replace the spark plug if
the electrodes are burned or if the insulation is
cracked or damaged. Clean the spark plug with
a steel brush if it is to be reused.
4. Measure the electrode gap with a gapping tool.
The gap should be 0.75 mm/0.030". Adjust as
necessary by bending the side electrode.
5. Reinsert the spark plug, turning by hand to
avoid damaging the threads.
MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Inadequately tightened spark plugs can
cause overheating and damage the engine.
Tightening the spark plug too much can
damage the threads in the cylinder head.
6. After the spark plug is seated, tighten it using a
spark plug wrench so that the washer is
compressed. A used spark plug should be
turned 1/8–1/4 of a turn from the seated
position. A new spark plug should be turned
1/2 a turn from the seated position.
