Remove the ignition coils and the spark plugs.
Inspect the electrodes and the ceramic insulator:
Burned or worn electrodes may be caused by these conditions:
Advanced ignition timing
Loose spark plug
Plug heat range too hot
Insufficient cooling
Fouled plugs may be caused by these conditions:
Retarded ignition timing
Oil in combustion chamber
Incorrect spark plug gap
Plug heat range too cold
Excessive idling/low speed running
Clogged air cleaner element
Deteriorated ignition coils
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, or if the spark plug electrode is dirty or contaminated. Use only the spark plugs listed.
