12 ADJUSTMENT-ENGINE SPARK PLUGS Correct ignition timing is achieved by first obtaining Neglecting the spark plug eventually leads to difficult starting and poor performance. If the spark plug is used for a long period, the electrodes gradually burn away and carbon builds up along the insulator.
ADJUSTMENT-ENGINE 13 Point Gap Adjustment (using a thickness gauge): .Remove the contact breaker cover and gasket. .Clean the points with a piece of clean paper or cloth, using an oil-free solvent. A business card soaked in trichloroethylene can be used to remove traces of oil.
14 ADJUSTMENT-ENGINE @Turn the crankshaft so that the "1 4" F mark on the timing advancer is aligned with the timing mark as shown. A. Right Contact Breaker B.
ADJUSTMENT-ENGINE 15 .Turn on the ignition switch and engine stop switch. Start the engine and warm it up thoroughly. Then, direct the strobe light at the timing mark. .At idle, the "1 4" F mark must be aligned with the timing mark for correct low rpm ignition timing.

154 MAINTENANCE-ENGINE AIR CLEANER A properly maintained air cleaner ensures that only clean, filtered air is supplied through the carburetor to the engine. If the air is supplied directly without filter- ing, dirt and dust from the air will clog carburetor passages causing the engine to run poorly.
MAINTENANCE-ENGINE 155 FUEL TANK, FUEL TAP The fuel tank capacity is 15.0 liter,, 1.5 liters of which forms the reserve supply. A cap is attached to the top of the tank, and a fuel tap to the bottom. An air vent is provided in the cap to prevent an air lock, which would hinder fuel flow to the carburetol-s.
156 MAINTENANCE-ENGINE Clean the air and fuel passages by lightly applying compressed air to the passage openings. Do not use wire for cleaning as this could damage the check valve, 0 ring seat, and diaphragm mating surfaces.
MAINTENANCE-ENGINE 157 The following explanation of the functioning and maintenance of the carburetors covers the four main systems for fuel regulation and supply.
158 MAINTENANCE-ENGINE Fast Idle Mechanism When choke lever is pushed down. pilot jet, main jets, pilot air jet, and main jet bleed pipe will cause insufficient atomization, thus impairing starter efficiency.
