C: CAUTION S161001A03
쐌Wear working clothing, including a cap, protec-
tive goggles, and protective shoes during opera-
tion.
쐌Remove contamination including dirt and corro-
sion before removal, installation or disassembly.
쐌Keep the disassembled parts in order and pro-
tect them from dust or dirt.
쐌Before removal, installation or disassembly, be
sure to clarify the failure. Avoid unnecessary
removal, installation, disassembly, and replace-
ment.
쐌Be careful not to burn your hands, because each
part on the vehicle is hot after running.
쐌Be sure to tighten fasteners including bolts and
nuts to the specified torque.
쐌Place shop jacks or safety stands at the speci-
fied points.
쐌Before disconnecting electrical connectors of
sensors or units, be sure to disconnect negative

B: INSTALLATION S161003A11
1. RH SIDE S161003A1105
Install in the reverse order of removal.
Tightening torque (Spark plug):
21 N·m (2.1 kgf-m, 15 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
The above torque should be only applied to
new spark plugs without oil on their threads.
In case their threads are lubricated, the torque
should be reduced by approximately 1/3 of the
specified torque in order to avoid over-stress-
ing.
Tightening torque (Resonator chamber):
32 N·m (3.3 kgf-m, 24 ft-lb)
2. LH SIDE S161003A1106
Install in the reverse order of removal.
Tightening torque (Spark plug):
21 N·m (2.1 kgf-m, 15 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
The above torque should be only applied to
new spark plugs without oil on their threads.
In case their threads are lubricated, the torque
should be reduced by approximately 1/3 of the
specified torque in order to avoid over-stress-
ing.

C: INSPECTION S161003A10
Check electrodes and inner and outer porcelain of
plugs, noting the type of deposits and the degree
of electrode erosion.
S6M0420A
(A) Electrode gap
(B) Carbon accumulation or wear
(C) Cracks
(D) Damage
(E) Damaged gasket
1) Normal
Brown to grayish-tan deposits and slight electrode
wear indicate correct spark plug heat range.
G6M0087
2) Carbon fouled
Dry fluffy carbon deposits on insulator and elec-
trode are mostly caused by slow speed driving in
city, weak ignition, too rich fuel mixture, dirty air
cleaner, etc.
It is advisable to replace with plugs having hotter
heat range.
G6M0088
3) Oil fouled
Wet black deposits show excessive oil entrance
into combustion chamber through worn rings and
pistons or excessive clearance between valve
guides and stems. If same condition remains after
repair, use a hotter plug.
G6M0089
4) Overheating
White or light gray insulator with black or gray
brown spots and bluish burnt electrodes indicate
engine overheating. Moreover, the appearance
results from incorrect ignition timing, loose spark
plugs, wrong selection of fuel, hotter range plug,
etc. It is advisable to replace with plugs having
colder heat range.
G6M0090
D: CLEANING S161003E56
Clean spark plugs in a sand blast type cleaner.
Avoid excessive blasting. Clean and remove car-
bon or oxide deposits, but do not wear away por-
celain.
If deposits are too stubborn, replace plugs.

E: ADJUSTMENT S161003A01
Correct it if the spark plug gap is measured with a
gap gauge, and it is necessary.
Spark plug gap: L
With catalyst:
1.0 —1.1 mm (0.039 —0.043 in)
Without catalyst:
0.7 —0.8 mm (0.028 —0.031 in)
S6M0412A
NOTE:
Replace with new spark plug if this area is worn to
“ball”shape.
