(m) Check that spark occurs at each spark plug while the engine is being cranked.

NOTICE:

  • Be sure to ground the spark plugs when checking them.
  • Do not crank the engine for more than 2 seconds.
  • If an ignition coil assembly or spark plug has been struck or dropped, replace it.

HINT:

  • If spark does not occur, perform the following procedure.
  • If spark does not occur for any cylinder, inspect the ignition circuit.

3. CHECK SPARK PLUG

NOTICE:

  • Do not damage the iridium tip and platinum tip.
  • Check the iridium tip visually since the iridium tip may be damaged.
  • Never attempt to adjust the electrode gap of a used spark plug.
  • Replace with new spark plugs if extremely dirty due to sludge, etc.
  • Replace with new spark plugs if damaged at all.
  • Replace with a new spark plug if it has been struck or dropped.
  • When replacing with a new spark plug, do not remove the cap for protecting the spark plug tip until it is installed to the engine.

HINT:

Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing a spark plug.

(a) Check the electrode.

(1) Using a megohmmeter, measure the insulation resistance.

Standard Insulation Resistance:

Tester Connection

Condition

Specified Condition

Spark plug (terminal part) - Body ground

Always

10 MΩ or higher

HINT:

  • If the result is not as specified, clean the spark plug with a spark plug cleaner and measure the resistance again.
  • If a megohmmeter is not available, perform the following simple inspection instead.

*a

Body Ground

(b) Alternative inspection method.

(1) Start the engine.

NOTICE:

Do not perform this step when any of the following DTCs are output: P030000, P030027, P030085, P030100, P030200, P030300, P030400 (Cylinder Misfire Detected).

(2) Quickly accelerate the engine to 4000 rpm 5 times.

NOTICE:

Do not perform this step when any of the following DTCs are output: P030000, P030027, P030085, P030100, P030200, P030300, P030400 (Cylinder Misfire Detected).

(3) Remove the spark plug.

(4) Visually check the spark plug.

HINT:

If the electrode is dry, the spark plug is functioning properly. If the electrode is damp, proceed to the next step.

(c) Check the spark plug for any damage to its threads and insulator.

If there is any damage, replace the spark plug.

Recommended Spark Plug:

Manufacturer

Spark Plug Type

DENSO

FC20HR-Q8

(d) Check the spark plug electrode gap.

Maximum Electrode Gap for Used Spark Plug:

1.2 mm (0.0472 in.)

NOTICE:

Never attempt to adjust the electrode gap of a used spark plug.

If the spark plug electrode gap is more than the maximum, replace the spark plug.

Standard Electrode Gap for New Spark Plug:

0.7 to 0.8 mm (0.0276 to 0.0315 in.)
