Removing the Spark Plug

1.Disengage the blade control switch, move the motion controls outward to the park position, stop the engine, and remove the key.

2.Pull the wire off of the spark plug (Figure 26). Clean around the spark plug to prevent dirt from falling into the engine and potentially causing damage.

Note: Due to the deep recess around the spark plug, blowing out the cavity with compressed air is usually the most effective method for cleaning. The spark plug is most accessible when the blower housing is removed for cleaning.

3. Remove the spark plug and metal washer.

Checking the Spark Plug

1.Look at the center of the spark plug (Figure 27). If you see light brown or gray on the insulator, the engine is operating properly. A black coating on the insulator usually means the air cleaner is dirty.

Important: Never clean the spark plug. Always replace the spark plug when it has a black coating, worn electrodes, an oily film, or cracks.

2.Check the gap between the center and side electrodes (Figure 27). Bend the side electrode if the gap is not correct.
