1. Remove:

bottom cowlings

side cowlings
Refer to “COWLINGS”.

Refer to “SEATS”.
2. Remove:

coolant reservoir tank

coolant reservoir hose
3. Disconnect:

coolant reservoir cap
1
4. Drain:

coolant
(from the coolant reservoir tank)
5. Remove:

radiator cap
1
A hot radiator is under pressure. Therefore,
do not remove the radiator cap when the en-
gine is hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam may
be blown out, which could cause serious in-
jury. When the engine has cooled, open the
radiator cap as follows:
Place a thick rag or a towel over the radiator
cap and slowly turn the radiator cap coun-
terclockwise toward the detent to allow any
residual pressure to escape. When the his-
sing sound has stopped, press down on the
radiator cap and turn it counterclockwise to
remove.
The following procedure applies to all of the
coolant drain bolts and copper washers.
6. Remove:

coolant drain bolts

CAUTION:
CONNECTING RODS AND PISTONSENG
NOTE:
NOTE:
Do not interchange the big end bearings and
connecting rods. To obtain the correct
crankshaft-pin-to-big-end-bearing clear-
ance and prevent engine damage, the big
end bearings must be installed in their origi-
nal positions.
a. Clean the big end bearings, crankshaft pins,
and the inside of the connecting rods halves.
b. Install the big end upper bearing into the con-
necting rod and the big end lower bearing
into the connecting rod cap.
Align the projections
a on the big end bearings
with the notches
b in the connecting rod and
connecting rod cap.
c. Put a piece of Plastigauge
 1 on the crank-
shaft pin.
d. Assemble the connecting rod halves.

Do not move the connecting rod or crankshaft
until the clearance measurement has been
completed.

Lubricate the bolt threads with molybdenum
disulfide grease.

Make sure that the “Y” mark
c on the connect-
ing rod faces towards the left side of the crank-
shaft.

Make sure that the characters
d on both the
connecting rod and connecting rod cap are
aligned.

FUEL INJECTION SYSTEMFI
SUBSTITUTE CHARACTERISTICS OPERATION CONTROL (FAIL-SAFE ACTION)
If the ECU detects an abnormal signal from a sensor while the vehicle is being driven, the ECU illumi-
nates the engine trouble warning light and provides the engine with alternate operating instructions
that are appropriate for the type of malfunction.
When an abnormal signal is received from a sensor, the ECU processes the specified values that are
programmed for each sensor in order to provide the engine with alternate operating instructions that
enable the engine to continue to operate or stop operating, depending on the conditions.
The ECU takes fail-safe actions in two ways: one in which the sensor output is set to a prescribed value,
and the other in which the ECU directly operates an actuator. Details on the fail-safe actions are given
in the table below.
