Connect the hose on the front of the tank (Fig. 54).
Changing the Spark Plugs
Change the spark plugs after every 200 operating hours.
Make sure the air gap between the center and side
electrodes is correct before installing the spark plugs. Use a
spark plug wrench for removing and installing the spark
plugs and a gapping tool/feeler gauge to check and adjust
the air gap.
Type:
Champion RC-12YC (or equivalent)
Air Gap:
0.030 inch (0.76 mm)
Removing the Spark Plug
1.
Set the parking brake, stop the pump, stop the engine,
and remove the ignition key.
2.
Release the latch on the back of the seat and lift the seat
forward.
3.
Pull the wires off the spark plugs (Fig. 57).
4.
Clean around the spark plugs to prevent dirt from
falling into the engine and potentially causing damage.

Checking the Spark Plugs
1.
Look at the center of the spark plugs (Fig. 58).
If you see a light brown or gray coating on the insulator,
the engine is operating properly. A black coating on the
insulator usually means the air cleaner is dirty.
Important
Do not clean the spark plugs. Always
replace a spark plug when it has a black coating, worn
electrodes, an oily film, or cracks.
2.
Check the gap between the center and side electrodes
(Fig. 58) and bend the side electrode, if the gap is not
correct.
