reinstall it in the outer cylinder location (closest

flange nuts tightened together, and turn the stud
in until tight. See Figure 10-57.

®
RC12YC or QC12YC (or
equivalent) spark plug.
2. Set the gap to 0.76 mm (0.030 in.).
3. Install the spark plug and torque it to 24-30 N·m

2. Make sure all the gasket surfaces are clean and
free of any nicks or damage.
3. Install a new intake gasket onto the carburetor
stud, then install the heat deflector. The curved
section should be down, toward the engine. If the
deflector contains a molded protruding point,
it should be towards the back inserted into the
intake port. Be sure the protruding point goes
through the large hole in the gasket, to keep it
aligned. See Figure 10-58.
