Accessing the Spark Plug

  • The Spark Plug tool that comes with the generator is a generic tool which does fit over the spark plug but there is no way to turn it using the bar handle that is provided. See Video

Using a Rachet, Universal and Socket

  • Because the OEM tool does not work to loosen or tighten the Spark Plug, you will have to use a traditional 13/16th spark plug socket and a Universal Joint attached to a 6in. extension to reach the spark plug and loosen or tighten it. The OEM tool may be used to spin the spark plug either out or in with your fingers once loose.
