The condition of the spark plug can indicate the condition of the engine. Check the coloration on the white porcelain insulator around the center electrode. The ideal coloration at this point is a medium to a light tan color for a snowmobile that is being ridden normally. If a spark plug shows a distinctly different color, there could be something wrong with the engine. For example, a very white center electrode porcelain color could indicate an intake track air leak or carburetion problem for that cylinder. Do not attempt to diagnose such problems yourself. Instead, take the snowmobile to a Yamaha dealer for inspection and possible repairs. You should periodically remove and inspect the spark plug because heat and deposits will cause a spark plug to slowly break down and erode. Consult a Yamaha dealer before changing to a different type of spark plug. Specified spark plug: Manufacturer: NGK Model: CR9EKB 1. Slot 1. Projection 2. Holder 1. Grommet 2. Close the shroud. 52
