Spark Plugs: Installation

CAUTION: DO NOT coat spark plug threads with anti-seize compound. If anti-seize compound is used and spark plugs are over-torqued, damage to the cylinder head threads may result.

Gap the spark plugs to .040" (1.1 mm). Install the spark plugs. Tighten the spark plugs to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Apply dielectric compound to spark plug boots and make sure no corrosion is present. Install ignition coil housing. See IGNITION COIL HOUSING .
