REPLACING THE SPARK PLUG

The correct air gap is 0.020 inch (0.5 mm.). Remove the
plug after every 50 hours of operation and check its
condition.

wire firmly and pull it from the spark plug.

from the cylinder head by turning a 5/8 in. socket
counterclockwise.

air gap at 0.020 in. (0.5 mm.) using a feeler gauge
(Fig. 37).
CAUTION: Do not sand blast, scrape, or
clean electrodes. Grit in the engine could
damage the cylinder.

head. Tighten by turning the 5/8 in. socket clockwise
until snug.
