The anode requires periodic inspection, especially in salt water which will accelerate the erosion. To maintain this
corrosion protection, always replace the anode before it is completely eroded. Never paint or apply a protective
coating on the anode as this will reduce effectiveness of the anode.
Spark Plug Inspection and Replacement
WARNING
Avoid serious injury or death from fire or explosion caused by damaged spark plug boots. Damaged spark plug
boots can emit sparks. Sparks can ignite fuel vapors under the engine cowl. To avoid damaging spark plug
boots, do not use any sharp object or metal tool such as pliers, screwdriver, etc. to remove spark plug boots.
1. Remove the spark plug leads. Twist the rubber boots slightly and pull off.
2. Remove the spark plugs to inspect. Replace spark plug if electrode is worn or the insulator is rough, cracked,
broken, blistered or fouled.
3. Set the spark plug gap to specifications, if applicable.
