Use a wire gauge or thickness gauge.
Out of specification ® Regap.
4. Clean the plug with a spark plug cleaner
if necessary.
Spark plug gap:
0.6 ~ 0.7 mm (0.02 ~ 0.03 in)
Standard spark plug:

CARBURETOR
HANDLING NOTE
At high altitudes, the atmospheric pressure is
lower. This can make the fuel mixture too rich,
leading to such problems as fouled.
Spark plugs and slow response at high engine
speeds. A special part, High Altitude Main Jet
1
#102.5 (620-1423A-71-A0) is available to
correct this.
