Spark Plug Maintenance

  How to correctly install spark plugs

You must take great care when installing spark plugs. In particular, you have to watch the torque. If you use too much or too little
torque when installing spark plugs you can cause damage to the spark plugs and the engine, so be sure you abide by the following.

Be sure to use the correct spark plug wrench.                              Standard Torque              Tightening torque
                                                                                                    35~40N・m(3.5~4.0kgm)
Some engines have narrow spark plug holes thereby preventing the                  Plug thread size  25~30N・m(2.5~3.0kgm)
spark plugs from being tightened correctly with a plug wrench that                    φ18mm         15~20N・m(1.5~2.0kgm)
does not perfectly fit the hexagonal portion of the plug. So, please use              φ14mm         10~12N・m(1.0~1.2kgm)
the appropriate spark plug wrench for your engine.                                    φ12mm
                                                                                      φ10mm           8~10N・m(0.8~1.0kgm)
Be sure to tighten the spark plug to the correct torque.                               φ8mm

Screw in the spark plug and then use a torque wrench to tighten the        Conical seat type (without gasket)
spark plug to the standard torque noted in the chart on the right. If you
do not have access to a torque wrench screw in the plug with your               Tightening torque   10~20N・m(1.0~2.0kgm)
fingertips and then tighten to the rotation angle noted below
(corresponds to the tightening torque in the chart on the right) using a
spark plug wrench once the spark plug comes in contact with the
spark plug tube gasket mount.

CAUTION       If any lubricants, such as grease, or seizure prevention agents are used on the threads there is a danger of over tightening
              the spark plug past the standard torque. Therefore, do not use lubricants or seizure prevention agents on these parts.
