SPARK PLUG
• Remove plug and check condition.
• Good operating conditions are indicated if the plug has a light grey or tan deposit. A white blistered
coating may indicate overheating. A black coating usually means an “over rich” fuel mixture caused by
a clogged air cleaner or improper carburetor adjustment. Do not sandblast, wire brush or otherwise try
to clean a dirty plug. Best results are obtained with a new plug.
• See engine manufacturers manual for proper spark plug gap.
