MEASURING THE COMPRESSION PRES-
SURE
NOTE:
Insufficient compression pressure will result in
a loss of performance.
1. Measure:
8 valve clearance
Out of specification
Refer to "ADJUSTING THE VALVE
CLEARANCE".
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several min-
utes, and then turn it off.
3. Remove:
8 panel
Refer to"FOOTREST BOARD AND IN-
