SECTION 4
NORMAL PROCEDURES
10 Throttle lever Set to just above idle
NOTE: RPM drop must not exceed 300 RPM for either ‘’magneto’’ and the
difference in drop should not exceed 150 RPM If there is doubt concerning
operation of the ignition system, RPM checks at higher engine speeds will
usually confirm whether a deficiency exists. An absence of RPM drop may in-
dicate faulty grounding of one side of the ignition system or magneto timing
set in advance of the specified setting.
