E: INSPECTION
Check electrodes and inner and outer porcelain of
plugs, noting the type of deposits and the degree
of electrode erosion.
G6M0086
1) Normal
Brown to grayish-tan deposits and slight electrode
wear indicate correct spark plug heat range.
G6M0087
2) Carbon fouled
Dry fluffy carbon deposits on insulator and elec-
trode are mostly caused by slow speed driving in
city, weak ignition, too rich fuel mixture, dirty air
cleaner, etc.
It is advisable to replace with plugs having hotter
heat range.
G6M0088
3) Oil fouled
Wet black deposits show excessive oil entrance
into combustion chamber through worn rings and
pistons or excessive clearance between valve
guides and stems. If same condition remains after
repair, use a hotter plug.
G6M0089
4) Overheating
White or light gray insulator with black or gray
brown spots and bluish burnt electrodes indicate
engine overheating. Moreover, the appearance
results from incorrect ignition timing, loose spark
plugs, wrong selection of fuel, hotter range plug,
etc. It is advisable to replace with plugs having
colder heat range.

ing screws.
CAUTION:
Before checking the headlight aiming, be sure
of the following:
ITurn off the light before adjusting headlight
aiming. If the light is necessary to check
aiming, do not turn on for more than two min-
utes.
IThe area around the headlight has not sus-
tained any accident, damage or other type of
deformation.
IVehicle is parked on level ground.
IThe inflation pressure of tires is correct.
IVehicle's gas tank is fully charged.
IBounce the vehicle several times to normal-
ize the suspension.
IMake certain that someone is seated in the
driver's seat.
NOTE:
Adjust vertical aim first, then horizontal aim.
