LANCE II SERVICE MANUAL
k. With all high tension
terminal grommets seated against the
ferrules in the cover,
attach
the bottom capacitor
lead to the
right main breaker
and then the top capacitor
lead
to
the left main breaker.
Position the cover
on the magneto
and secure. Torque
cover screws
to 30-35 inch-pounds.
1.
Carefully
route the high
tension spark
plug leads
away from
any hot
spots such as
manifolds
and
sharp edges
which might
cause heat
damage or
chafing. Check
leads for
proper
location
in clamps
so when
clamps are
tightened
the leads
will not
be crushed.
Leads
should
be taut
to prevent
chafing
due to
vibration,
but not
so taut as
to produce
undue
strain or leads.
m.
After all
leads have been
properly
routed and
secured to
the engine,
recheck all
clamp
securing
screws
for tightness.
Fasten
coupling
nuts to
proper spark
plugs
and torque
as specified
in Table VIII-II.
Do
not allow ferrules
to
turn while
torquing nuts.

8-39. REMOVAL
OF SPARK
PLUGS.
a. Loosen
the
coupling
nut on
the harness
lead and
remove
the terminal
insulator
from
the
spark plug
barrel well.
NOTE
When withdrawing
the
ignition cable
lead connection
from
the
plug, care
must
be taken
to pull
the lead
straight
out and
in line with
the
centerline
of the
plug barrel;
otherwise
a side
load
will
be applied,
which
frequently
results
in damage
to
the barrel
insulator and
connector.
If the lead
cannot be
removed
easily
in this
manner,
the resisting
contact
between
the neoprene
collar
and the
barrel
insulator
will be
broken
by
a rotary
twisting
of the
collar.
Avoid undue
distortion
of the
collar
and possible
side
loading of the
barrel insulator.
b. Remove
the spark plug
from the
engine. In
the course
of engine operation,
carbon
and
other combustion
products
will be
deposited
on the end of
the spark
plug and will
penetrate
the lower
threads
to some degree.
As a result,
greater torque
is frequently
required
for
removing
a plug than
for its installation.
Accordingly,
the torque
