Installation Instructions 

Prepare the engine for installation 

Before beginning installation it’s a good idea to plan location of the various components 

of the engine. Many of the following steps may need to be completed in a different order 

than listed. 

1. Check to see that all screws and bolts are tight. Check carefully for any cracks, broken, 

or missing parts. Tighten or replace any damaged or missing parts before proceeding. 

 

2. Install the silicone wire cover over the pick up lead coming from  the engine (cut the 

excess silicon wire cover) and connect the lead  to the pick–up lead from the Electronic 

Ignition Module. Secure  the  connection with the included three pin connector securing 

clip.
