Removal Note
Fuel hose
Warning
a) Cover the hose with a rag because fuel will
spray out when disconnecting.
b) Keep sparks and open flame away from the
fuel area.
Plug the disconnected hoses to avoid fuel leakage.

TUNE-UP PROCEDURE 1 B
76G01A-102
TUNE-UP PROCEDURE
Tune the engine according to the procedures
described below.
Battery
1. Check for corrosion on the terminals, or loose ca-
ble connections.
If necessary, clean the clamps and tighten firmly.
2. Check that the electrolyte level is between the UP-
PER and LOWER marks.
Add distilled water if necessary.
3. Check the specific gravity by using a hydrometer.
If the specific gravity reading is 1.200 or less,
recharge the battery. (Refer to Section 5.)
76G01A-103
Air Cleaner Element
Visually check the air cleaner element for excessive
dirt, damage, or oil. Clean or replace if necessary.
Caution
When cleaning the air cleaner element, blow
dust off from the inside completely first, then
blow from the outside.
76G01B-005
Engine Oil
Check the engine oil level and condition with the oil
level gauge.
Add oil, or change it, if necessary.

1 B ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
76G01B-017
86U01X-020
76G01B-018
Possible Cause
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
If the engine exhibits low power, poor fuel economy,
or poor idle, check the following points.
1. Ignition system (Refer to Section 5)
2. Compression
3. Fuel system (Refer to Section 4C)
COMPRESSION
1. Check that the battery is fully charged. Recharge
if necessary.
2. Warm up the engine to the normal operating tem-
perature.
3. Turn it off for about 10 minutes to allow the exhaust
manifold to cool.
4. Remove all spark plugs.
5. Disconnect the primary wire connector from the
ignition coil.
6. Connect a compression gauge to No.1 spark plug
hole.
7. Fully depress the accelerator pedal and crank the
engine.
8. Note the maximum gauge reading.
9. Check each cylinder.
Standard compression:
1,422 kPa (14.5 kg/cm2, 206 psi)—290 rpm
Leaded fuel
1,373 kPa (14.0 kg/cm2,199 psi)—310 rpm
... Unleaded fuel
Compression limit:
996 kPa (10.2 kg/cm2, 144 psi)—290 rpm
Leaded fuel
961 kPa (9.8 kg/cm2, 139 psi)—310 rpm
... Unleaded fuel
If compression is low, pour heavy oil into the cylinder and turn the crankshaft several times Check compression once more
»
Is compression increased? Yes 1. Worn piston or piston rings
2. Worn cylinder wall
No
1. Worn piston or piston rings
2. Worn cylinder wall
No 1. Defective cylinder head gasket 2. Distorted cylinder head
Is compression in adjacent cylinder low? Yes
1. Defective cylinder head gasket 2. Distorted cylinder head
Is compression in adjacent cylinder low?
No 1. Improper valve seating
2. Valve sticking in guide
3. Defective cylinder head gasket
