Title: 2012 S8 150--Accessing the spark plug
Post by: FLRider on July 24, 2018, 01:31:46 AM

I'm seeking to change my spark plug.  Months back I looked online, and local parts stores carry the plugs.  I have 8500 miles on it, and I got it at around 3500 miles.  But I've not paid $35 for a shop manual online, and I'm wondering if just a socket wrench and an extension will handle it.

Where is the plug, and how do I safely get to it without damaging the plastic covers?

Thank you for the help!

Most often...
Stock tool kits with scooters have sparkplug removal tools in the kit. And owner's manuals show where the plug is located.
You have neither, I  guess.
Hopefully someone will be along soon to help you with this.
