Engine News, SEBD9564, 03 November 2008, "An Improved Spark Plug Extension is Used". Disregard the article, refer to the following article.

Description of Change: An improved spark plug extension is used. The new extension increases the dielectric strength in order to help prevent damage due to arcing. The new extension prevents the steel rod from moving inside the extension. This ensures good contact between the spark plug and the extension. Another feature of this new extension is an O-ring seal at the connection for the transformer. This O-ring seal helps to prevent arcing between the extension and the transformer.

Adaptable To: The 283-5269 Transformer Gp is canceled and replaced by the 310-3180 Transformer Gp. Refer to Table 1.

Table 1
Former Parts and New Parts    
Former     New    
283-5269 Transformer Gp     310-3180 Transformer Gp    
283-5270 Transformer    
283-5271 Extension As     308-1380 Extension As    
The 308-1380 Extension As replaces the following extenders for the spark plug:

The new spark plug extension is adaptable to the gas engines that are listed above.

Note: When a new 308-1380 Extension As is installed on an old transformer, ensure that the extender fully seats against the transformer and that no gaps are present. It may be necessary to remove a set screw from the transformer if the extender does not seat fully against the transformer.
