Check the plug and clean it if it is dirty.

The plug should last for nearly as many hours as the plug in your bush shredder or leaf blower....

Typical spark plugs can last 100 hours if treated correctly. And you will have to do minor tuning in PA, since the weather changes drastically. Every few months maybe!!

Yeah, you will have to tune it occasionally as the seasons change and temperature changes drastically... Remember, colder temps = colder air = denser air, richen the needles. Warmer temps = Warmer air = less dense air, lean the needles.
