MEASURING THE COMPRESSION
PRESSURE
TIP
Insufficient compression pressure will result in
a loss of performance.
1. Measure:
• valve clearance
Out of specification
→
Adjust.
Refer to “ADJUSTING THE VALVE
CLEARANCE”.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several min-
utes, and then turn it off.
3. Disconnect:
• spark plug cap
4. Remove:
• spark plug
NOTICE
Before removing a spark plug, use com-
pressed air to blow away any dirt accumu-
lated in the spark plug well to prevent it
from falling into the cylinder.
5. Attach:
•
compression gauge
6. Measure:
• compression pressure
Out of specification
→
Refer to steps (c)
and (d).
