Sparking Plug Replacement
3. Clean around the base of the plug
to be removed, and install the plug
socket ensuring that the ceramic
insulator does not become dam-
aged. Turn the socket counterclock-
wise to remove the plug.
This operation should only be per-
formed when the engine is cold.
1.
Remove the centre cover (2.0) from
the engine rocker cover.
2
. Remove plug lead from the spark-
ing plug to be replaced, pulling the
lead by the rubber cap. (Pulling the
lead may damage the carbon con-
ductor.)
!
CAUTION:
Sparking plugs must only be
cleaned using purpose designed
equipment. Wire brushing may
damage the centre electrode insu-
lator causing misfiring to occur.
Only the correct grade of sparking
plug should be used. Use of an
incorrect grade may result in seri-
ous engine damage.
G060C02JM
Prior to installing a sparking plug, the
gap between the centre and outer
electrodes must be checked and ad-
justed as necessary.
Adjustment is facilitated by bending
the outer electrode towards or away
from the centre electrode. Under no
circumstances should attempts be
made to adjust the position of the
centre electrode.
