If the engine is down on power, difficult
to start or runs poorly at idling speed,
first check the spark plug.
Install a new spark plug after approx.
100 operating hours or earlier if the
electrodes are badly eroded/corroded.
The 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 degrade performance.
Removing the spark plug
N Remove the shroud – see "Shroud"
N Pull off the spark plug boot
N Unscrew spark plug
Checking the spark plug
N Clean the spark plug if it is dirty
N Check the electrode gap (A) and
readjust if necessary – see
"Specifications"
N Use only resistor type spark plugs of
the approved range
Correct the problems that have caused
fouling of the spark plug:
– too much oil in fuel mix,
– dirty air filter,
– unfavorable running conditions, e.g.
operating at part throttle.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury,
use only spark plugs authorized by
STIHL. Always press the spark plug
boot (1) snugly onto the spark plug
terminal (2).
Do not use a spark plug with a
detachable SAE adapter terminal (3).
Arcing may occur that could ignite
combustible fumes and cause a fire.
This can result in serious injuries or
damage to property.
N Only use resistor type spark plugs
with solid, non-threaded terminals
