SERVICING YOUR OUTBOARD MOTOR

A loose spark plug can overheat
and damage the engine.
Overtightening the spark plug can
damage the threads in the cylinder
head.

Install and lock the engine cover.

If reinstalling the used spark plug,
tighten 1/8

1/4 turn after the

spark plug seats.

Attach the spark plug cap.

Install the spark plug carefully, by
hand, to avoid cross-threading.

After the spark plug seats, tighten
with a spark plug wrench supplied
in the tool kit to compress the
sealing washer.

If installing new spark plug,
tighten 1/2 turn after the spark
plug seats.
