3. Remove the spark plug.
4. Inspect the new spark plug. The spark plug must
be properly gapped and free of deposits in order to

necessary, carefully bend the ground (top) electrode.
To lessen gap, gently tap ground electrode on a hard
surface.
5. Hand thread the new spark plug into the cylinder , turn-
ing it clockwise.
6. Tighten with a socket. (torque to 216 in.lb. [24.40 Nm]
minimum, 264 in.lb. [29.82 Nm] maximum.) Do not
over-tighten.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to cross-thread the spark plug.
Cross-threading will seriously damage the
product.

High Altitude Engine Operation:

Your engine is configured for operation below 2000 feet
altitude at the factory. Your engine must be re-configured
for operation above 2000 feet altitude. Operating the engine
with the wrong engine configuration at a given altitude may
increase its emissions, decrease fuel efficiency, degrade
performance and cause irreversible damage. Engines
configured for high altitude operation cannot be operated
in standard altitude conditions. A qualified service center
should ensure that your engine is properly configured for
your location.
