FITTING THE SPARK PLUGS
This document describes the basic procedure for fitting spark plugs and connectors in conformity with the
criteria established by Kohler .
1.
To prevent the formation of corrosion or sulphation, apply silicone grease onto the connectors and terminals,
which prevents moisture from getting in. Such types of grease include: Dow Corning DC-4, G.E. G-623 or GC
Electronics Z5. Also apply a small amount of grease onto the wire connector and coil.
2.
You can measure and adjust the spark plug gap of some of the Kohler -referenced spark plugs.
Check the spark gap for each spark plug reference.
-
Measure the spark plug gap using thickness gauges.

In the case of four-electrode spark plugs, a special spark gap setting tool as shown in figure 3 ref. 19.75.016 is
used.
