Checking the spark plugs

EWJ00350

WARNING

Be careful not to damage the insulator when removing or installing a spark plug. A damaged insulator could allow sparks to escape, which could result in a fire or ex- plosion.

Remove and check the condition of the spark plugs.

The condition of a spark plug can indicate something about the condition of the engine. For example, if the center electrode portion is very white, this could indicate an intake air leak or carburetion problem in that cylinder. Do not attempt to diagnose any problems yourself. Have a Yamaha dealer service the watercraft.
