Spark plug (Fig. 13)
The spark plug condition is in uenced by:
An incorrect carburetor setting
Wrong fuel mixture (too much oil in the gasoline)
A dirty airlter
Hard running conditions (such as cold weather)
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug electrodes, which
may result
in malfunction and starting di culties. If the engine
is low on power, di cult to start or runs poorly at idling speed,
always check the spark plugrst. If the spark plug is dirty, clean it
and check the electrode gap. Re-adjust if necessary. The correct
gap is
0.6 mm. The spark plug should be replaced after about 100
operation hours or earlier if the electrodes are badly eroded.
0.6 mm
