Do not use steel or brass brushes for cleaning & never sandblast plugs.
Clean with plastic brush in a solvent.
Check electrode gap & if necessary, adjust to the gap given in Section 3.4 by carefully bending
the electrode.
CAUTION
DO NOT reduce the electrode gap by tapping the plug against a hard object
– damage to the
insulator can result.
Recommended Plugs: NGK D9EA. Note that spark plug terminal nuts must be used (Figure
35)
Use suitable anti-seize on thread and install to the torque setting given in Table 10. Note that
engine must be cold to accurately set plug torque.
When using CHT sensors equipped with a ring terminal under the spark plug ensure the ring
terminals are centred over the plug.
CAUTION
Off-centre terminals will give a false, high CHT reading.
