Remove and clean the spark plug. ■
Adjust the spark plug electrode gap to
0.6 mm (0.024 in). If the spark plug
must be replaced, use only an NGK
CMR5H or equivalent resistor type
spark plug of the correct heat range.
See Figure 17.
CAUTION!
Before removing the spark plug,
clean the area around the plug to
prevent dirt and debris from getting
into the engine’s internal parts.
Clean the spark plug
and check the gap at
the electrode.
