"1" (ignition checker "2") as
shown.
• Ignition coil "3"
• Spark plug "4"
A. For USA and CDN
B. Except for USA and CDN
3. Kick the kickstarter crank.
4. Check the ignition spark gap.
5. Start engine, and increase spark
gap until misfire occurs. (for USA
and CDN only)
CHECKING THE COUPLERS,
LEADS AND IGNITION COIL
CONNECTION
1. Check:
• Couplers and leads connection
Rust/dust/looseness/short-cir-
cuit
→
Repair or replace.
CHECKING THE ENGINE STOP
SWITCH
1. Inspect:
• Engine stop switch conduction
Not conductive while it is pushed
→
Replace.
Conductive while it is freed
→
Re-
place.
Set the tester selection position to "
Ω
× 1".
CHECKING THE IGNITION COIL
1. Inspect:
• Primary coil resistance
Out of specification
→
Replace.
2. Inspect:
• Secondary coil resistance
Out of specification
→
Replace.
• Remove the spark plug cap by turn-
ing it counterclockwise and inspect.
• Install the spark plug cap by turning

CHECKING THE SPARK PLUG
CAP
1. Inspect:
• Spark plug cap
Loose connection
→
Tighten.
Deteriorated/damaged
→
Re-
place.
• Spark plug cap resistance
Out of specification
→
Replace.
Minimum spark gap:
6.0 mm (0.24 in)
