3. Replace the plug at the specified interval or if the
center electrode (A) is rounded, or if the spark plug
gap (B) is out of specification. Use only the listed
spark plugs.
NOTE: Do not adjust the gap of iridium tip plugs.
4. Apply a small amount of anti-seize compound to the plug threads, and screw the plugs into the
cylinder head, finger-tight. Torque them to 18 N·m
(1.8 kgf·m, 13 lbf·ft).

2. Raise the vehicle on the lift, and position theengine/transmission under the vehicle. Lower the
vehicle, and install the universal lifting eyelet
(07AAK-SNAA120). Attach a chain hoist to the
universal eyelet and the transmission hook, then lift
the engine into position in the vehicle.
NOTE: Reinstall the mounting bolts/support nuts in
the sequence given in the following steps. Failure
to follow this sequence may cause excessive noise
and vibration, and reduce engine mount life.
