to prevent corrosion.
22. After installation, checkthatall tubes, hosesand
connectors are installed correctly.
23. Inspectforfuel leaks. Turn the ignition switch ON
{ll) {do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump
runs for about 2 seconds and pressurizes the fuel
line. Repeat thls operation two or three times, then
check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.
24. Refillthe radiator with engine coolant, and bleed
air from the cooling system with the heater valve
open (see page 10-6).
25. Inspect the idle speed (see page 11-'138).
26. Inspect the ignition timing (see page 4-17).
Gylinder Head Cover lnstallation
1. Thoroughly clean the head cover gasket and the
groove.
2. Installthe head cover gasket (A) in the groove of
the cylinder head cover (B).
Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry.
Apply liquid gasket. P/N 08718-0009, on the chain
case and the No.5 rocker shaft holder mating areas.
NOTE: Do not install the parts if 5 minutes or more
have elapsed since applying liquid gasket. Instead,
reapply liquid gasket after removing old residue.
