TESTING FOR SPARK
There are several types of spark testers. All will attach to the engine's spark cap and the spark plug terminal.
1. Remove the spark cap.
2. Attach tester's spark cap to the spark plug terminal.
3. Insert the other end of spark tester into the engine's spark cap.
4. Pull recoil starter one or more times and observe the spark tester to see if it indicates the spark plug
is working.
REPLACING A SPARK PLUG
NOTICE! Using an incorrect spark plug can cause engine damage.
NOTICE! Do not choke for spark with spark plug removed.
For the engine to perform well, the spark plug must be properly gapped
and free of deposits.
1. Remove any dirt from around the spark plug area.
2. Pull the Spark plug cap off of the spark plug (Fig. 10-1).
3. Remove the spark plug with a spark plug wrench.
4. Inspect the spark plug. Replace it if damaged, badly fouled, the
sealing washer is in poor condition, or the electrode is worn.
5. Check the gap (Fig. 10-2) with a spark plug gauge/gapper or
feeler gauge (Fig. 10-3). If necessary, reset the gap
(See Specifications).
6. Install the spark plug carefully by hand to avoid cross threading.
7. Tighten the spark plug.
a. When installing a new spark plug, tighten 1/2 turn after the
spark plug seats to compress the washer.
b. When reinstalling the original spark plug, tighten 1/8 to
1/4 turn after the spark plug seats to compress the washer.
8. Attach the spark plug cap to the spark plug.
IMPORTANT! In some areas, local law requires using a resistor spark plug to suppress ignition signals. If this
engine was originally equipped with a resistor spark plug, use the same type for replacement.
INSPECT THE MUFFLER
WARNING! Running engines produce heat. Engine parts, especially the
muffler, become extremely hot. Severe burns can occur on contact.
Combustible debris, such as leaves, grass, brush, etc. can catch fire.
1. Allow the muffler (Fig. 11-1), the engine cylinder and fins to cool
before touching.
2. Remove any accumulated debris from the muffler area and cylinder area.
3. Clean muffler cover of debris to allow air flow.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM INFORMATION

The combustion process produces carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen. Control of these
emissions is very important for personal and environmental health.
The following instructions must be followed in order to keep the emissions from your engine within Canadian
emission standards.
