| SPARK PLUG CHECK AND CLEANING <4G63-SOHC, 4G64-SOHC> CAUTION When pulling off the spark plug cable from the plug always hold the cable cap, not the cable. Remove the spark plug cables and the ignition coils. Remove the spark plugs. Check for burned out electrode or damaged insulator. Check for even burning. Remove carbon deposits with wire brush or plug cleaner. Remove sand from plug screw with compressed air.
| Use a plug gap gauge to check that the plug gap is within the standard value range. Standard value: 1.0 - 1.1 mm <4G63-SOHC> 0.7 - 0.8 mm <4G64-SOHC> If the plug gap is not within the standard value range, adjust by bending the earth electrode. CAUTION Be careful not to allow foreign matter in cylinders. Clean the engine plug holes. Install the spark plugs and the ignition coils.
