spark plugs replace HONDA INTEGRA 1998 4.G Workshop Manual

lgnition System
1. Inspect the electrodes and ceramic insulator for:
Spark Plug lnspection
. lmproper gap. Oil-fouling. Carbon deposits. Cracked centerelectrode insulatorDamagedgaskei
Burned or worn electrodes may be caused by:
. Advanced ignition timing. Loose spark plug
. Plug heat range too low. Insufficient cooling
Fouled plugs may be caused bY:. Retarded ignition liming. Oil in combustion chamber. Incorrect spark plug gap
. Plug heat range too high. Excessive rdling'low speed running
. Clogged air cleaner element. Deteriorated ignition coil or ignition wires
81881, 818C5 engine:
. Adjust the gap wjth a suitable gapping tool, and
replace the plug if the center electrode is rounded
as shown below.
Electrode Gap:
Standard 'l .1 ; r mm {0.043 ; ooa in)

a Do not adjust the gap ol a platinum tip plug;
replace the spark plug it the center electrode is
rounded or if the gap is not within the specifi-
cattons.
Electrode Gap:

Apply a small quantity ot anti-seize compound to the
plug threads belore installing the plugs.
Screw the plugs into the cylinder head tinger tight,
then torque them to 18 N.m (1 .8 kgf.m, 13lbf.ft).
