Do not strike or drop the ignition
coil, or it may be damaged and
require replacement.
Inspect the spark plugs. Replace
them if the electrodes are worn, or
if the insulators are cracked or
chipped.
Measure the spark plug electrode
gap with a wire-type feeler gauge.
The gap should be 0.039 0.051
inches (1.0 1.3 mm). If the gap
is out of the specification, replace
the plug with a new one. Never try
to readjust the gap.
Remove the spark plugs with a
spark plug wrench and 19 mm eye
wrench.
Disconnect the wire connector
from the ignition coil by pushing
on the lock tab and pulling on the
connector. Pull on the plastic
connector, not the wires.
Use a 6 mm hex. wrench to
remove the bolt holding the
ignition coil. Remove the ignition
coil by pulling it up slightly.
