Spark Plug

If the engine is down on power, difficult
to start or runs poorly at idling speed,
first check the spark plug.
Install a new spark plug after approx.
100 operating hours or earlier if the
electrodes are badly eroded/corroded.
The wrong fuel mix (too much engine oil
in the gasoline), a dirty air filter and
unfavorable running conditions (mostly
at part throttle etc.) affect the condition
of the spark plug. These factors cause
deposits to form on the insulator nose
which may degrade performance.
Removing the Spark Plug
2
Pull off the spark plug boot (1).
N
Unscrew the spark plug (2).
N
Checking the Spark Plug

"Specifications."
Use only resistor type spark plugs of
N
the approved range.
Rectify problems which have caused
fouling of spark plug:
too much oil in fuel mix,
–
dirty air filter,
–
unfavorable running conditions, e.g.
–
operating at part load.
