Check Or Replace Spark Plugs - Victory Vegas 2008 Owner's Manual

Check or Replace Spark Plugs

The spark plugs must be removed from the engine to inspect them.
Spark plugs with bright white deposits, sooty black deposits, or with
damaged insulators or electrodes can indicate engine problems. If these
conditions exist, or if the condition of one plug is markedly different
from the other, see the VICTORY Service Manual or an authorized
VICTORY dealer for assistance.
1. Make sure the engine is at room temperature.
2. Disconnect the spark plug wire by pulling upward on the spark plug
boot.
3. To prevent any debris from entering the engine through the spark
plug hole, use pressurized air to blow clean the area around each
spark plug before removing it.
WARNING
Wear face protection when using pressurized air.
