REPLACING SPARK PLUGS
(except supercharger)
Platinum-tipped spark plugs
It is not necessary to replace platinum-
tipped spark plugs as frequently as conven-
tional type spark plugs because they last
much longer. Follow the maintenance
schedule, but do not reuse the spark plugs
by cleaning or regapping.
OAlways replace spark plugs with rec-
commended or equivalent ones.1. Disconnect the spark plug cables.When disconnecting, always hold the
boots Ð not the cables. Mark all cables
to identify their original location.
2. Remove the spark plugs with a spark
plug socket.
3. Fit the new spark plugs, one at a time,
into the spark plug socket and install
them.Use only the specified spark
plugs.Turn each plug several full turns
by hand, then tighten with the spark plug
socket to the correct torque. Do not over-
tighten.
