Installation Guidelines

1. Remove the Old Plug: Use a spark plug socket and ratchet to unscrew the existing plug. Inspect for damage or excessive wear.
2. Check the Gap: Measure the electrode gap with a feeler gauge; adjust if necessary using a spark plug gapping tool.
3. Insert the New Plug: Hand‑tighten first, then use a torque wrench to achieve the manufacturer’s recommended torque (typically 30–40 Nm for most engines).
4. Reconnect Wiring: Attach the spark plug wire or coil pack, ensuring a secure connection.
5. Test Engine Performance: Start the engine and verify smooth idle, correct timing, and absence of misfires.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect plugs every 10,000–15,000 km or as recommended by your vehicle’s service schedule.
• Avoid using a damaged or cracked plug; replace immediately to prevent engine damage.
• Keep the spark plug area clean from oil and coolant leaks that could compromise performance.
