WARNING

EWB02531
Gasoline is poisonous and can cause injury or
death. Handle gasoline with care. Never siphon
gasoline by mouth. If you should swallow
some gasoline or inhale a lot of gasoline vapor,
or get some gasoline in your eyes, see your
doctor immediately. If gasoline spills on your
skin, wash with soap and water. If gasoline
spills on your clothing, change your clothes.
NOTICE

ECB00060
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use of leaded
gasoline will cause severe damage to internal
engine parts, such as the piston rings, as well
as to the exhaust system.
Your Yamaha engine has been designed to use
premium unleaded gasoline with a research oc-
tane number of 95 or higher. If knocking (or ping-
ing) occurs, use a gasoline of a different brand.
Use of unleaded fuel will extend spark plug life and
reduce maintenance costs.

Adjusting the engine idling speed
The engine idling speed must be checked and, if
necessary, adjusted as follows at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance and lubrica-tion chart.
TIP


A diagnostic tachometer is needed to make this
adjustment.

The carburetor synchronization and the throttle
cable free play must be checked, and adjusted if
necessary, before adjusting the engine idling
speed.
1. Start the engine and warm it up.
TIP

The engine is warm when it quickly responds to the
throttle.
2. Attach the tachometer to the spark plug lead.
3. Turn in both pilot air screws until they lightly
seat.
4. Turn out both pilot air screws to specification.
(See the “Changing the carburetor settings”
section on the page 8-23.)
