BATTERY
INSPECTION
Terminal and Cable
1. Check the tightness of the terminals to ensure good
electrical connections. Clean the terminals and coat
them with grease after tightening the terminal.
2. Inspect for corroded or frayed battery cables.
3. Check the rubber protector on the positive termi-
nal for proper coverage.
4BG05X-006
Electrolyte Level
1. Check whether or not the electrolyte level lies be-
tween the "UPPER LEVEL" and the "LOWER
LEVEL" lines.
2. If low, add distilled water by the "UPPER LEVEL".
Do not overfill.
4BG05X-007
Specific Gravity
1. Measure the specific gravity by using a
hydrometer.
2. If the specific gravity reading is standard or less,
recharge the battery.
Standard gravity: 1.22
Fully charged gravity: 1.27—1.29
76G05X-004
RECHARGE
Quick Charge
1. Remove the battery from the vehicle.
2. Remove all the vent caps.
3. Perform a quick charge (6A or above, but max.
20 A).
4. Add distilled water if necessary while charging.
5. Cool the battery not to exceed the electrolyte tem-
perature over 55°C (131 °F) while charging.
6. Charge once more if the specific gravity is under
fully charged gravity.
4BG05X-009
5-8
Page 715 of 1865

SPARK PLUG 5
Slow Charge
1. Stop the engine
2. Turn all the accessories off.
3. Remove the negative battery cable.
4. Perform a slow charge (3.5A to 4.5A).
5. Add distilled water if necessary while charging.
6. Charge once more if the specific gravity is under
fully charged gravity.
4BG05X-010
SPARK PLUG
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Note the following points:
1. When the high-tension lead is to be pulled off, be
sure to pull the boot itself, and not the wire.
2. Tighten the spark plugs to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 15—23 N-m
(1.5—2.3 m-kg, 10.8—16.6 ft-lb)
76G05X-054
Wear and adhesion or cabon
INSPECTION
Check the following points. If a problem is found, re-
place the spark plug.
1. Damaged insulation
2. Worn electrodes
3. Carbon deposits
If cleaning is necessary, use a plug cleaner or a
wire brush. Clean the upper insulator also.
4. Damaged gasket
5. Burnt condition of spark insulator
6. If it is black with carbon deposits, either misfiring
due to improper proportions of gas and air or over-
heating of the plug may have occurred.

76G05X-018
IGNITER
INSPECTION
1. Disconnect the center high tension lead from the
distributor cap.
2. Hold it with insulated pliers approx. 5—10 mm
(0.20—0.39 in) from a ground.
3. Turn th ignition switch ON.
4. Remove the rubber seal from the igniter connector.
5. Apply battery voltage to terminal A (LR) with a jum-
per wire.
6. Check that a strong blue spark is visible when the
wire is disconnected.
76G05X-019
If no spark is seen, connect a voltmeter between
terminal B (B) and terminal C (YL), and check for
battery voltage.
76G-05X-020
8. Repeat steps 5 and check
that
the voltage changes
to 2—3V.
9.
If
the voltage is not as specified, replace the igniter.
10.
If
the voltage is as specified, check the ignition coil
and high tension lead.

76G05X-023
86U05X-008
Caution
a) Be sure the battery connections are not
reversed, because this will damage the rec-
tifier.
b) Do not use high-voltage testers such as a
megger, because they will damage the rec-
tifier.
c) Remember that battery voltage is always
applied to the alternator B terminal.
d) Do not ground the L terminal while the en-
gine is running.
e) Do not start the engine while the connec-
tor is disconnected from the L and S ter-
minals.
