GENERAL PROCEDURES
- turn spark plug cap (3) complete with coil through 90° and lift it to remove it;
then remove spark plug.
Carefully change the spark plug, if necessary, using one having the
same rating.
Before refitting the plug, thoroughly clean the electrodes and the
insulator using a metal brush. Apply graphitised grease on spark
plug thread, screw it by hand all the way down, then tighten it to
the torque of 10 ÷ 12 Nm (7.38 ÷ 8.85 ft-Ib). Loosen spark plug and
tighten it again to 10÷12 Nm (7.38 ÷ 8.85 ft-Ib).
Spark plugs which have cracked insulators or corroded electrodes
should be replaced.
