plug washer is in good
condition, and thread the

Overtightening the spark plug can damage the threads in the
cylinder head.

Spark Arrester (optional equipment)
Your pump engine is not factory-equipped with a spark arrester. In
some areas, it is illegal to operate an engine without a spark arrester.
Check local laws and regulations. An optional USDA approved spark
arrester is available from an authorized Honda servicing dealer. See
page 20 for part numbers.
The spark arrester must be serviced every 100 hours to keep it
functioning as designed.
1. Allow the engine to cool, then remove the two 8 mm nuts and
remove the muffler from the cylinder head.
2. Remove the four 5 mm screws from the muffler protector and
remove the muffler protector.
3. Remove the 4 mm screw from the spark arrester and remove the
spark arrester from the muffler.
