Cleaning and renewing the spark plugs
(fig. 72)
Spark plugs are an important part of the engine and should
be checked at regular intervals.
The condition of the spark plugs provides a good indication of
how well the engine is running.
Have the spark plugs inspected or replaced at a Ducati Dealer
or Authorized Workshop. Firstly, they will check the colour of
the ceramic insulator of the central electrode: an even brown
colour is a sign that the engine is in good running order.
Notes
Secondly, they will check the central electrode for
wear and measure electrode gap. Electrode gap should be:
2-0.8 to 0.1 mm.
Important
A gap outside the specified limits will adversely affect
engine performance and may lead to difficult starting or
erratic idling.
