of operation and check its condition.

the plug wire firmly and pull it from the spark
plug.
2. Clean dirt from around the spark plug.
Remove the spark plug from the cylinder
head by turning a 5/8 in. socket
counterclockwise.

Set the air gap at 0.020 in. (0.5 mm.) using a
feeler gauge (Fig. 26).
CAUTION: Do not sand blast,
scrape, or clean electrodes. Grit in
the engine could damage the
cylinder.
4. Install a correctly gapped spark plug in the
cylinder head. Tighten by turning the 5/8 in.
socket clockwise until snug.

110-120 in.•lb. (12.3-13.5 N•m).
