I ordered a kit to replace the plugs, air filter, fuel filter, and oil filter.
When removing the plugs, the right cyl plug is behind it and impossible to see. You have to feel to find it and put spark plug socket on. You have to use a universal on the socket with at least a 6” extension.
Now you will find the angle is so tight the universal will bind. What I did was drill a hole on the side case to provide a better angle. When done I used metal tape to seal the inside and out. Now changing the plug is much easier.
Looking at the plug I bet it was never changed.
The first picture you can barely see the end of the socket behind the pipe.
