SPARK PLUG MAINTENANCE

Inspect and clean the spark plug after every 100 hours of
use or six months. Replace the spark plug after 300 hours
of use or every year.
ALWAYS use the Westinghouse OEM or compatible
non-resistor-type spark plug. Use of resistor-type spark
plug can result in rough idling, misfire, or may prevent
the engine from starting.
1. Place the generator on a level surface and allow the
engine to cool.
2. Remove the spark plug boot by firmly pulling the spark
boot directly away from the engine.
3. Clean the area around the spark plug.
4. Remove the spark plug with the included spark plug
socket wrench.
NEVER apply any side load or move the spark plug
laterally when removing the spark plug.
5. Inspect the spark plug. Replace if electrodes are
pitted, burned, or the insulator is cracked. Only use a
recommended replacement plug.
6. Measure the spark plug electrode gap with a wire-type
feeler gauge. If necessary, correct the gap by carefully
bending the side electrode.
