Pulstar™ Pulse Plug Installation Guide
1) DO NOT DROP! Installing a pulse plug that has been accidentally dropped could result in poor driving performance and engine damage.
2) GAP. Follow our recommended gap settings given to you when you select the year, make and model for your particular vehicle.
3) Prior to attaching the wires or coil, apply dielectric grease around the ceramic insulator at the terminal end of the plug to promote a quality electrical connection.
4) Tighten BE-1 and DG-1 plugs to 20 Ft-Lbs. Tighten AD-1, CB-1 and EF-1 plugs to 11 Ft-Lbs. (In the absence of a torque wrench, a general rule of thumb is to torque tapered seat plugs (AD-1, CB-1 and EF-1) 1/8th turn past hand tight and torque flat seat plugs (BE-1 and DG-1) 1/4th turn past hand tight.
5) On most computer controlled vehicles allow at least one tank of gas for the computer to learn the characteristics of the new pulse plugs. You can speed up the learning process by disconnecting the negative battery terminal during install. Remember to reconnect the terminal before attempting to start the engine.
6) If you have an onboard fuel economy computer, you may want to reset it during installation of your pulse plugs. Give the computer several tanks to settle into an average fuel economy reading.
