Changing the Spark Plugs

Recommended spark plugs: E5RTC

In order to ensure that the engine operates normally, your spark plug needs a correct distance between

the center and side electrodes, and no carbon buildup. Follow these steps to ensure your spark plugs

are in good shape.

1. Remove the spark plug maintenance cover.

2. Take off the spark plug cap.

3. Remove the spark plug using a spark plug spanner.

4. Visually inspect the spark plug. If the insulator is cracked or chipped, replace it with a new one. If

there is buildup on the plug, clean it with a wire brush (if you are reusing it).

5. Measure the spark plug gap between the center and side electrodes using a feeler gauge. The

normal value should be 0.028-0.031” (0.7-0.8 mm).
