Does anybody know how to change a lawn mower spark plug?

Hey Hoov..... Come here... Hold this wire... Hang on just a sec... * Runs to find keys *
Hey now TIME OUT! The 3800 throws a slightly heftier spark than a lawn mower engine Im sure....now if this was a Honda forum, Id be all over it.

the best way to check for spark is to ground it to the metal of the head and look if there is a spark, if you dont like to be shocked
