To keep spark plugs in optimal condition:

Regular Inspections: Periodically inspect spark plugs for signs of wear, fouling, o r corrosion. A mechanic can check the gap and condition of the plugs during routine maintenance.
Clean and Gap Spark Plugs: If the spark plugs are not too worn, they can be cleaned using a wire brush o r spark plug cleaner and gapped to the manufacturer’s specifications.
Replace When Necessary: If the spark plugs show signs of wear o r fouling, replace them immediately to avoid engine damage.
Fuel System Maintenance: Regularly clean the fuel system to prevent carbon buildup and ensure proper combustion.
