Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery. To avoid mixing up the wires, disconnect only the first spark plug.

Using a 10mm socket, unscrew the sealing nut of the first spark plug and pull the connector upwards. The first spark plug is located at the bottom of the well.

Before proceeding with the removal, clean the wells thoroughly with compressed air to eliminate any dirt that could fall into the combustion chamber. Using the appropriate spark plug socket, which has a rubber gripping device, gently insert it onto the spark plug head and unscrew it. Be careful not to drop any foreign objects into the well.

Replace the spark plug with one of the same model, carefully inserting it into the well, always using the appropriate socket and turning it gently while ensuring it screws in properly.
