The numbers of the list show the priorities of inspections from the most possible to that with the lowest
possibility.
These were determined on the following basis:
Ease of inspection Most possible system Most possible point in system
TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE:
1st Check the following items:
Electrical system
1) Battery condition
2) Fuses
Ignition system
1) Spark plugs
2) Ignition timing
Fuel system
1) Fuel level
2) Fuel leakage
3) Fuel filter
4) Idle speed
Intake air system
1) Vacuum or air leakage
