If the engine has been running, the muffler will be very hot. Be

careful not to touch the muffler.

2. Visually inspect the plug. Discard the plug if it is heavily deposited or if

the insulator is cracked or chipped.

3. Measure the plug gap with a wire-type feeler gauge; it should be

0.7-0.8 mm (0.028-0.031 in). If adjustment is necessary, bend the

side electrode carefully.

4. Make sure the sealing washer is in good condition, then thread the spark

plug in by hand until it seats.

washer. If you are reusing the plug, it should only take l/8- l/4 turn

after the plug seats.

CAUTION: The spark plug must be securely tightened. An improperly

tightened spark plug can become very hot and may damage the engine.
