NOTE:
Insufficient compression pressure will result in a loss of performance.
1. Measure:
Valve clearance Out of specification →Adjust.
Refer to "ADJUSTING THE VALVE CLEARANCE" on page 3-3.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it off.

5. Disconnect:

6. Remove:
| CAUTION: Before removing the spark plug, use compressed air to blow away any dirt accumulated in the spark plug well to prevent it from falling into the cylinder. |
7. Install:


8. Measure:

a. Set the main switch to "ON".
b. With the throttle wide open, crank the engine until the reading on the compression gauge stabilizes.
c. If the compression pressure is above the maximum specification, check the cylinder head, valve surfaces and piston crown for carbon deposits.
Carbon deposits Eliminate.
d. If the compression pressure is below the minimum specification, pour a teaspoonful of engine oil into the spark plug bore and measure again.
Refer to the following table.

Checking the valves and valve guides
The following procedure applies to all of the
valves and valve guides.
1. Measure:
Valve-stem-to-valve-guide clearance
Out of specification Replace the
valve
guide.
Valve-stem-to-valve-guide clearance =
Valve guide inside diameter "a" -
Valve stem diameter "b"
