Note: Before securing the spark plug, hand-tighten it to ensure it's correctly aligned. Then, using a spark plug wrench, rotate the spark plug half a turn to the right for initial tightening. After this step, slightly loosen the plug before tightening it again to the right, this time by about 1/8 or 45°. This process is essential for properly positioning the spark plug gasket in the head, ensuring a snug and secure fit.
