INSPECT SPARK PLUG AND SPARK PLUG CABLE
1. Remove the spark plug cable(A).
NOTE: When removing the sparkplug cable, pull Off the spark plug cable boot (not the cable), as it may be damaged.
2. Using a spark plug socket, remove the spark plug(B).
CAUTION: Be careful that no contaminates enter through the spark plug holes.
3. Inspect the electrodes(A) and ceramic insulator(B).
4. Check the electrode gap(A).
Standard (New) : 1.0-1.1 mm (0.039-0.043 in.)
5. Carefully remove the spark plug cable by pulling on the rubber boots(A). Check the condition of the spark plug cable terminals(B), It any terminal is corroded, clean it, and it it's broken or distorted, replace the spark plug cable.
6. Connect the ohmmeter probes and measure resistance.
RESISTANCE: 5.6 K ohms +/- 20%
7. Resistance should not be higher than 2.6 K ohms per meter of cable. If resistance is higher, replace the cable.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
