Changing the Spark Plugs

pull straight up on the insulated
connector, not the cable. Pulling
on the cable may damage the car-
bon core conductor.
4. When preparing to remove the old
spark plug, guide the socket down
over the spark plug, being careful
not to damage the ceramic insula-
tor.
5.
To remove the old spark plug, turn
the wrench handle in a counter-

the ceramic insulator.

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.

!
WARNING:
1.
Remove the center cover (2.0L) on
the engine rocker cover.
It is recommended that the engine
be cool or cold when changing the
spark plugs. If the engine is hot,
you could burn yourself on the
insulated connector, the spark plug
or the engine itself.
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.
