The perfect efficiency of the spark plugs is essential for ensuring a good cold start of the engine and for guaranteeing excellent combustion within the cylinders, benefiting performance and fuel consumption. Therefore, replacing them periodically is crucial.

Wait until the engine has completely cooled before starting. Remove the air filter housing located at the top of the engine, and you will see the four leads for the spark plugs on the rocker cover.

Remove the lead, unscrew and take out the old spark plug, then insert the new one without exceeding the torque specification. Repeat the same process for the other three.
