Spark Plug Gap
1. Disconnect spark plug cable from the spark plug.
NOTE:
If the spark plug cable is removed by pulling on the cable, it may be damaged.
2. Using a plug wrench, remove all plugs from cylinder head.
CAUTION: Use care not to allow foreign matter to enter through plug holes.
3. Check the spark plugs for the following:
^ Broken insulator
^ Worn electrode
^ Carbon deposits
^ Damaged or broken gasket
^ Burnt condition of porcelain insulator at spark gap.
NOTE:
Dark deposits indicate too rich a fuel mixture, light (white) deposits indicate too lean a fuel mixture, advanced ignition timing or
insufficient plug tightening
4. Check plug gap using a plug gap gauge and adjust if necessary.
Standard value: 0.039 - 0.043in. (1.0 - 1.1mm)
5. Tighten spark plug to specified torque. If overtorqueing occurs, damage to threaded portion of cylinder head might result.
Spark plug torque: 15-21 ft.lb (20 - 30Nm)
