5. Tighten:
Spark plug
NOTE:
Before installing the spark plug, clean the
gasket surface and spark plug surface. Also,
it is suggested to apply a thin film of anti-
seize compound to the spark plug threads to
prevent thread seizure.
If a torque wrench is not available, a good
estimate of the correct tightening torque for a
new spark plug is to finger tighten a
the
spark plug and then tighten it another 1/4 to
1/2 of a turnb
.

SERVICE POINTS
Compression pressure measurement
The following procedure applies to all of the
cylinders.
NOTE:
Insufficient compression pressure will result in
a loss of performance.
1. Measure:
Valve clearance
Out of specification →
Adjust.
Refer to “POWER UNIT” in Chapter 3.
2. Warm the engine up, and then put the
watercraft in a horizontal position.
3. Remove:
Ignition coils
Spark plugs
CAUTION:
Before removing the spark plugs, use com-
pressed air to blow away any dirt accumu-
lated in the spark plug wells to prevent it
from falling into the cylinders.
4. Install:
Compression gauge extension 1

Compression gauge 2

Compression gauge extension:
90890-06582

Engine unit removal
1. Remove:
Engine unit
Removal steps:
CAUTION:
Lift the engine unit carefully trying not to
hit it on the deck or letting it fall hard on
the hull.
Suspend the engine unit using all three
engine hangers, and then separate the
unit from the engine mount.
Shim removal
1. Remove:
Shims
NOTE:
To ease reassembly and coupling alignment,
remove the shims and organize them in their
respective groups (e.g., front right, rear left)
prior to removing the mounting bolts.
Engine mount inspection
1. Inspect:
Engine mounts
Cracks/damage →
Replace.
Refer to “ENGINE MOUNT” in Chapter
8.

Low resistance measurement
NOTE:
When measuring a resistance of 10 Ω
or less
using a digital tester, the correct measure-
ment cannot be obtained because of the
tester’s internal resistance.
To obtain the correct value, subtract the
internal resistance from the displayed mea-
surement.
The internal resistance of the tester can be
obtained by connecting both of its terminals.
Correct value =
Displayed measurement –
Internal resistance
Peak voltage measurement
NOTE:
When checking the condition of the ignition
system it is vital to know the peak voltage.
Cranking speed is dependant on many fac-
tors (e.g., fouled or weak spark plugs, a
weak battery). If one of these is defective,
the peak voltage will be lower than specifica-
tion.
If the peak voltage measurement is not
within specification the engine will not oper-
ate properly.
A low peak voltage will also cause compo-
nents to prematurely wear.
