1. Remove the spark plug caps from the spark plugs.
2.
Remove the spark plug.If electrode erosion becomes excessive,or if carbon and other
deposits are excessive,you should replace the spark plug with another of the correct
type.
WARNING! When removing or installing a spark plug,be careful not to
damage the insulator.A damaged insulator could allow external sparks,which
could lead to explosion or fire.
Standard spark plug:
DPR6EB-9
3. Be sure to use the specified spark plug,otherwise the engine may not operate
properly.Before fitting the spark plug,measure the electrode gap with a wire thickness
gauge; replace it if out of specification.
1.Spark plug gap
2.Spark plug part number
3.Spark plug I.D. mark(NGK)
Spark plug gap:
0.8-0.9mm(0.031-0.035in)

.
When fitting the plug,wipe off any dirt from the threads,and then screw it in to the correct
torque.
Spark plug torque:
17Nm(1.73kgf-m,12.5ft-lb)
TIP:
If a torque-wrench is not available when you are reinstalling a spark plug,a good estimate of
the correct torque is 1/12 turn past fingertight . When you are installing a new spark plug, a
good estimate of the correct torque is 1/2 turn past finger-tight.
Checking fuel filter
Check the fuel filter periodically. If any water or
foreign matter is found in the filter, clean or replace
it. For cleaning or replacement of the fuel filter,
