    • Some aftermarket spark plugs that fit the Sportster use a slightly larger 18mm spark plug socket.

    • Remove the spark plug from the cylinder.

    • Always inspect your new spark plugs before installing. Check the gap on your replacement spark plugs with a feeler gauge. It should be set to .040 inches (1.016mm).

    • If they are not pre-installed, make sure that the crush washer and terminal nut are installed.

    • Using your fingers, install the new spark plug into the socket, and hand tighten until firm.

    • Using a torque wrench, tighten the spark plug to the proper specification.

    • When installing spark plugs, proper torque can be important. To loose and they could rattle out or leak; too tight and you can strip your cylinder head. The correct torque for this plug is between 90 and 120 inch lbs.

    • Reinstall your spark plug wire by pushing it firmly onto the new plug.

    • Make sure that it seats properly. You can usually feel a definitive click when it is installed correctly.

Just for information, particularly in the UK, you may be able to purchase sparking plugs cheaper at a Chandlers, as there are quite a few 4-stroke outboard engines use these plugs.
