How to Check the Spark Plug
Spark Plug Model: Torch K7RTC
CAUTION
Only use the recommended spark plug or a spark plug with
the same temperature range. Using an improper spark plug,
an incorrect spark plug gap, or a dirty/fouled spark plug can
reduce engine performance and cause damage.
1. Stop engine and allow it to cool.
2. Remove spark plug wire from spark plug.
3. Remove the spark plug with a size 16mm (5/8 inch) deep
well socket.
4. Visually inspect the spark plug for cracks or damage.
If cracked, replace spark plug.
5. Clean carbon deposits. If excessive carbon build up,
replace spark plug.
6. Check that the gap of the spark plug is 0.024 - 0.031 in.
(0.6 - 0.8mm). (Figure 15)
7. Re-insert the spark plug and tighten to 12 foot-pounds
(16 Nm).
8. Reattach spark plug wire to spark plug.
