GENERAL INFORMATION

Compression Gauge
A compression gauge
(Figure 33
) measures combustion chamber (cylinder) pressure, usually in
psi or kg/ cm
2
. The gauge adapter is either inserted or screwed into the spark plug hole to obtain the
reading. Disable the engine so it does not start and hold the throttle in the wide-open position when
performing a compression test An engine that does not have adequate compression cannot be
properly tuned. Refer to Chapter Three.
Multimeter
A multimeter
(Figure 34)
is an essential tool for
electrical system diagnosis. The voltage function
indicates the voltage applied or available to various
electrical components. The ohmmeter function tests
circuits for continuity, or lack of continuity, and
measures the resistance of a circuit.
Some manufacturer’s specifications for electrical
components are based on results using a specific test
meter. Results may vary if using a meter not
recommended by the manufacturer. Such
requirements are noted when applicable.
Ohmmeter (analog) calibration
Each time an analog ohmmeter is used or if the
scale is changed, the ohmmeter must be calibrated.
Digital ohmmeters do not require calibration.
1. Make sure the meter battery is in good condition.
2. Make sure the meter probes are in good condition.
3. Touch the two probes together and observe the
needle location on the ohms scale. The needle
must Align with the 0 mark to obtain accurate
measurements.
4. If necessary, rotate the meter ohms adjust knob until the needle and 0 mark align.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FUNDAMENTALS
A thorough study of the many types of electrical systems used in today’s motorcycles is beyond
the scope of this manual. However, a basic understanding of electrical basics is necessary to perform
simple diagnostic tests.
Refer to Electrical Testing in Chapter Two for typical test procedures and equipment. Refer to
Chapter Ten for specific system test procedures.
