Spark Plug Service
Recommended spark plugs: BPR6ES (NGK) or W20EPR-U (DENSO)

free of deposits.
NOTICE
An incorrect spark plug can cause 
engine damage.
1. Disconnect the spark plug cap 
and remove dirt from the area.
2. Remove the spark plug with a 
spark plug wrench.
3. Inspect the plug; replace it if the 
electrodes are worn, or if the 
insulator is cracked or chipped
4. Set the gap to 0.028 ~ 0.031 in 
(0.7 ~ 0.8 mm).
5. Install the spark plug carefully, by 
hand, to avoid cross-threading.
6. After the plug seats, tighten it as 
follows to compress the washer:
Old plug: 1/8 to 1/4 turn
New plug: 1/2 turn
NOTICE
A loose spark plug can overheat 
and damage the engine.
