Checking the Spark Plug
1. Look at the center of the spark plug ( Figure 16 ). If you
see light brown or gray on the insulator, the engine is
operating properly. A black coating on the insulator
usually means that the air cleaner is dirty.
Important:
Never Clean the spark plug. Always
replace the spark plug when it has a black coating,
worn electrodes, an oily film, or cracks.
