4) If any abnormality is found, adjust air gap, clean with spark
plug cleaner or replace them with specified new plugs.
For iridium/platinum spark plugs, replace them with new
plugs.
Spark plug air gap “a”
1.0 – 1.1 mm (0.040 – 0.043 in.)
Spark plug type
NGK : BKR6E-11, IFR5E11
DENSO : K20PR-U11, SK16PR-A11
5) Install spark plugs and torque them to specification.
Tightening torque
Spark plug : 25 N·m (2.5 kg-m, 18.0 lb-ft)
6) Install ignition coil assemblies referring to “Ignition Coil
Assembly” in this section.
7) Install high-tension cords securely by gripping their caps.
Ignition Coil Assembly (Including Ignitor)
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
2) Remove cylinder head upper cover.
3) Disconnect ignition coil connector.
4) Disconnect high-tension cord (3) from ignition coil assembly
(2).
5) Remove ignition coil bolts (1) and then pull out ignition coil
assembly. NOTE:
NGK IFR5E11 or DENSO SK16PR-A11 is highly recom-
mended for better engine starting performance under –
25°C (– 13°F).
CAUTION:
When servicing the iridium/platinum spark plugs (slender
center electrode type plugs), do not touch the center
electrode to avoid damage to it. The electrode is not
strong enough against mechanical force as it is slender
and its material is not mechanically tough.
