SPARK PLUG TESTM1163001500143
1. Remove the spark plug and connect to the ignition coil.
2. Ground the spark plug outer electrode (body), and crank the
engine.
Check that there is an electrical discharge between the
electrodes at this time.
SPARK PLUG CHECK AND CLEANING M1163004300397
Do not attempt to adjust the gap of the iridium plug.
Cleaning of the iridium plug may result in damage to
the iridium tips. Therefore, if carbon deposits must be
removed, use a plug cleaner and complete cleaning
within 20 seconds to protect the electrode. Do not use a
wire brush.
Check the plug gap and replace if the limit is exceeded.
