If the plug is oily or has carbon built up on it, clean it. The plug may also be cleaned using a high flashpoint solvent and a nonmetal brush (nylon etc.). If the spark plug electrodes are corroded, or damaged, or if the insulator is cracked, replace the plug. The standard spark plug is shown in the table below.
