HINT:
• If it is difficult to reproduce misfires for each cylinder, check
the Data List item called MISFIRE MARGIN. Try to find
vehicle driving conditions that lower the MISFIRE
MARGIN value. Values above 30% are considered normal.
• If the freeze frame data's record of the ECT is below 75
C
(167
F), the misfire may be detected only when the engine
is cold.
• If the freeze frame data's record of the ENG RUN TIME is
below 120 seconds, the misfire may be detected
immediately after the engine is started.

A
(a) Remove the ignition coil and the spark plug of the
misfiring cylinder.
(b) Measure the spark plug electrode gap.
Maximum gap:
1.3 mm (0.0512 in.)
(c) Check the electrode for carbon deposits.
Recommended spark plug:
NOTICE:
If the electrode gap is larger than standard, replace
the spark plug. Do not adjust the electrode gap.

(c) Install the spark plug onto the ignition coil.
(d) Attach the spark plug assembly to the cylinder head.
