Spark Plug Maintenance
The spark plug is important for proper engine operation. A good spark plug should be
intact, t_ee of deposits, and properly gapped. To inspect you spark plug:
1. Pull on the spark plug cap to remove it.
2. Unscrew the spark plug from the generator using the spark plug wrench included
with this product (see figure 17).
3. Visually inspect the spark plug. If it is cracked or chipped, discard and replace
with a new spark plug. We recommend using a F6RTC spark plug such as NGK
BPR5ES.
4. Measure the plug gap with a gauge (see figure 18). The gap should be 0.7-0.8rain
(0.028 -0.031 in).
5. If you are re-using the spark plug, use a wire brush to clean any dirt t?om around
the spark plug base and then re-gap the spark plug..
6. Screw the spark plug back into its place on the generator using the spark plug
wrench. Replace the spark plug cap.
