ZAUM00**
1. Spark plug wrench
4. Remove the spark plug as shown,
with a spark plug wrench avail-
able at a Yamaha dealer.
To check the spark plug
1. Check that the porcelain insula-
tor around the center electrode
of the spark plug is a medium-to-
light tan (the ideal color when the
vehicle is ridden normally).
TIP
If the spark plug shows a distinctly
different color, the engine could be
operating improperly. Do not attempt
to diagnose such problems yourself.
Instead, have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.
2. Check the spark plug for elec-
trode erosion and excessive
carbon or other deposits, and re-
place it if necessary.
Specified spark plug:
CR7E (NGK)
To install the spark plug
1. Measure the spark plug gap with
a wire thickness gauge and, if
necessary, adjust the gap to
specification.
Spark plug gap:
0.7 - 0.8 mm (0.028 - 0.031 in)
2. Clean the surface of the spark
plug gasket and its mating sur-
face, and then wipe off any grime
from the spark plug threads.
3. Install the spark plug with the
spark plug wrench, and then tight-
en it to the specified torque.
Tightening torque:
Spark plug:
13 Nm (1.3 m·kgf, 9.4 ft·lbf)
TIP
If a torque wrench is not available
when installing a spark plug, a good
estimate of the correct torque is 1/4 -
1/2 turn past finger tight. However, the
spark plug should be tightened to the
specified torque as soon as possible.
4. Install the spark plug cap.
5. Install the partition and the panel.
