Servicing the Spark Plug

Service Interval: Every 100 hours—Check the spark plugs.
Ensure that the air gap between the center and side electrodes
is correct before installing the spark plug. Use a spark plug
wrench for removing and installing the spark plug and a
gapping tool/feeler gauge to check and adjust the air gap.
Install a new spark plug if necessary.
Type: BPR6ES (NKG) or equivalent
Air Gap: 0.70 to 0.80 mm (0.28 to 0.031 inch)
