Thanks! You saved me some time for the first time doing this. Some little extras that would really take this over the top... include size of bolts holding cover, type of plug, and gap you set at. All these things still have to be looked up or fiddled with after watching the vid. Maybe just include them in the description. Thanks again!
Thank you! Been looking for a how to video on this and finally found one. Hadn't changed the spark plug yet and didn't know if I was supposed to take those bolts out or not. Great video!
Directly from the owners manual: 76 mm (0.030 in.) I don’t always use a torque wrench for changing the plugs but I did this time so I didn’t have to listen to all the nasty comments about how I should have done it this way or used this tool blah blah blah. You can definitely use a regular wrench to get the job done. Thanks for watching.
@@funbro1 thank you! Any ideas on how to get the steering a little loosened? It feels like I'm having to exert more force than necessary when trying to turn.
@@funbro1 Id say it’s actually a good design, have had our Cub Cadet for three years and now just replacing the spark plug. No misfires or anything just doing a tuneup that’s it overdue for. Actually think their 18 Horse engine is one the most reliable ones I’ve owned. Nice video

+Christian Reynolds I guess it would even be better if I could just come over and do it. LOL
funbro1 no but you could include the spark plugs gap. That's the whole point of the video.
@@funbro1 When will you be over?

Awesome, hopefully it will run smoother with more power and more fuel efficient. Glad you watched my video and it helped. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much I just inherited one of these and could not find a single reference to where the spark plug was located
Glad to help, Thanks for watching.
What's the correct gap specification? And is it a must to use a torque wrench or could I get away with just tightening it with a regular wrench?

Thanks for your help.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
what size are the bolts
9/16"
What an awkward place for a plug leave it to koehler
Agreed, not sure if that was the bad design of Koehler or Cub Cadet? Thanks for the view.
