The engine idling speed must be
checked and, if necessary, adjusted as
follows at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
TIP
A diagnostic tachometer is needed to
make this adjustment.
1. Attach the tachometer to the
spark plug lead.
2. Start the engine and warm it up for
several minutes at 1000–2000
r/min while occasionally revving it
to 4000–5000 r/min.
TIP
The engine is warm when it quickly re-
sponds to the throttle.
3. Check the engine idling speed
and, if necessary, adjust it to
specification by turning the throt-
tle stop screw. To increase the en-
gine idling speed, turn the screw in
direction (a). To decrease the en-
gine idling speed, turn the screw in
direction (b).
TIP
If the specified idling speed cannot be
obtained as described above, have a
Yamaha dealer make the adjustment.
