Spark Plug
Servicing Your Honda
An improperly tightened spark plug can damage the engine. If a plug is
too loose, a piston may be damaged. If a plug is too tight, the threads
may be damaged.
With the plug washer attached, thread the spark plug in by hand to
prevent cross-threading.
Tighten the spark plug:
If the old plug is good:
1/8 turn after it seats.
If installing a new plug, tighten it twice to prevent loosening:
First, tighten the plug:
NGK:
turn after it seats.
DENSO:
turn after it seats.
Then loosen the plug.
Next, tighten the plug again:
1/8 turn after it seats.
Connect the spark plug cap. Take care to avoid pinching any cables or
wires.
Install the remaining parts in the reverse order of removal.
