SPARK PLUGS
Replacing the Spark Plugs
Changing the Spark Plugs
The spark plugs should be changed at the
intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance
schedule in Section 5 or whenever engine per-
formance indicates they should be changed.
Symptoms that suggest poor spark plug perfor-
mance include engine misfiring under load, loss
of fuel economy, poor acceleration, etc. When
spark plugs are replaced, always use spark
plugs recommended by Hyundai. The use of
other spark plugs can result in loss of perfor-
mance, radio interference or engine damage.

NOTE:
You will find it easier to change spark plugs if
the engine is cold. Always change one spark
plug at a time. This helps avoid getting the wires
mixed up.
Your engine was originally equipped with plati-
num-tipped spark plugs. (For 2.7L only).
Platinum-tipped spark plugs will last longer than
conventional type spark plugs and can be iden-
tified by blue lines on the ceramic shell.
When replacing the spark plugs, genuine
Hyundai replacement parts are recom-
mended.

2. Using a clean cloth, remove any dirt that has
accumulated around the base of the spark
plug so it cannot fall into the cylinder when
the spark plug is removed.
