Wrong fuel mix (too much engine oil in
the gasoline), a dirty air filter and
unfavorable running conditions (mostly
at part throttle etc.) affect the condition of
the spark plug. These factors cause
deposits to form on the insulator nose
which may result in trouble in operation.
If engine is down on power, difficult to
start or runs poorly at idling speed, first
check the spark plug.
: Remove spark plug as described
in chapter "Starting / Stopping the
Engine".
: Clean dirty spark plug.
: Check the electrode gap (A) and
readjust if necessary – see

e.g. operating at part load.
