SPARK PLUGS
Spark plugs should be inspected periodically
for carbon deposits. When carbon accumu-
lates on a spark plug, a strong spark may
not be produced.
If necessary, clean the electrodes with a
fine wire brush and carefully scrape the
carbon off the insulator with a small file. The
spark plugs should be blown clean with
compressed air and the upper insulator
wiped clean. And adjust the spark plug gap.
Service interval
Change every 30,000 km

When replacing the spark plugs,
disconnect the negative terminal
of the battery and turn off all the
switches.

It is recommended that the engine
be cool or cold when changing the
spark plugs (you could burn your-
self).

Do not use non-recommended
spark plugs.
•

ter spark plug hole.
