Re: spark plugs

goodluck, why do you need to get the cap off
Don't think there is a way to get that gas cap off without a key bud, thats what the lock is for

Re: spark plugs

the plugs gap is set already when you purchase them


And I'm not sure if its like a honda, but on honda plugs they SPECIFICALLY say you should never re-gap them

SPARK PLUG GAP
• Measure the spark plug gap with a thickness gauge.
• Adjust the spark plug gap if necessary.
Spark plug gap:

Standard: 0.7 – 0.8 mm (0.028 – 0.031 in)

Re: spark plugs

if that key doesnt work, let me look at my gas cap.i did a write up on how to rekey them. since the tank is off, you MAY be able to wiggle the cap out with some finesse, or try pushing the angled part with a screwdriver from the bottom after you take all of the screws out of the top.. if so, i can prolly get you fixed where you just need to stick a key in to turn it.

if you have aim, hit me up on there: jebova2301

i can prolly explain it better there
