brush before reinstalling. If insulator is cracked or chipped,
spark plug should be replaced. Make sure electrode gap is
0.60mm-0.80mm.
NOTE: If replacing, use the following recommended spark
plug: A7RTC.
Screw spark plug back by hand, avoid damaging threads
of the cylinder.
Put the spark plug back in position and use the spark plug
wrench to tighten it. If spark plug is new, use 1/2 turn to
compress washer appropriate amount. If reusing old spark
plug, use 1/8 to 1/4 turn for proper washer compression.
Replace spark plug cap.
