PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR

6-10

To install the spark plug

1. Measure the spark plug gap with a

wire thickness gauge and, if nec-

essary, adjust the gap to specifica-

tion.

2. Clean the surface of the spark plug

gasket and its mating surface, and

then wipe off any grime from the

spark plug threads.

3. Install the spark plug with the

spark plug wrench, and then tight-

en it to the specified torque.

NOTE:

If a torque wrench is not available when

installing a spark plug, a good estimate

of the correct torque is 1/4–1/2 turn

past finger tight. However, the spark

plug should be tightened to the speci-

fied torque as soon as possible.

4. Install the spark plug cap.
