A. - Completely empty out the fuel from the tank, the fuel pipe and the carburettor
B. - Remove the spark plug and pour a few drops of engine oil in the cylinder. Turn the
motor several times by hand to distribute the oil over the inner surface of the cylinder.
C. - Clean the outer surface with a cloth soaked in oil, cover the unit and keep in a place
that is free of dust and damp.
Remove the cover from the spark plug and use a suitable plug spanner to extract the
spark plug.
Look at the spark plug to see if it needs replacing due to wear and tear or if the insulator
is split or cracked.
If the spark plug is correct, clean it with a wire brush.
Check that the gap is between 0.7 and 0.8 mm.
Check that the washer on the spark plug is in good condition and put the spark plug
back by hand so as not to distort the thread.
Then tighten up with the plug spanner to compress the washer.
When fitting a new spark plug, give it a 1/2 turn once it is in place. If the spark plug has
been used already, tighten with 1/8 to 1/4 of a turn after placing it in position.
PRECAUTION: the spark plug should be really tight, otherwise will heat up and may
damage the motor.
