SPARK PLUG INSPECTION
The spark plug is important engine
components, which should be checked
periodically.

(2). Insert the tool (4) through the hole
from the outside of the cover.
2. Insert the handlebar (3) in to the tool (4)
and turn it counterclockwise to remove
the spark plug.
3. Check for discoloration and remove any
carbon deposits. The porcelain insulator
around the center electrode of spark plug
should be a medium to light tan color.
4. Check the spark plug type and gap.
Standard spark plug: E6TC/E6RTC
BP6HS / BPR6HS (NGK) L87YC /R
L87YC (CHAMPION) W16FP / W16FPR
(DENSO) W6BC / WR6BC (BOSCH) If
needing EMC Certification, engine must
use E6RTC spark plug Gap: 0.6-0.7mm
(0.024-0.028in)
5. Install the spark plug. (Torque: 20.0 N.m)
TIP:
If a torque wrench is not available
when installing a spark plug, a good
estimate of the correct torque is 1/4-1/2
turn past finger tight. However, the spark
plug should be tightened to the specified
torque as soon as possible.
6. Install the spark plug cap and spark
plug cover.
