1. Disconnect and ground the spark plug wire.
2. Remove the spark plug using a 13/16” or 21mm wrench. A flexible coupling or “wobbly” extension may help. See Figure 7.15.
3. Gap a new spark plug to 0.026” - 0.030” (0.65 - 0.75 mm).
4. Install the new spark plug and tighten to a torque of 15 - 18 ft - lbs (20 - 25 Nm).
Okay, hopefully, it works for you.
