CHECK
I - PREPARATION OPERATION FOR CHECK
aRemove:
-the coils (see 17A, Ignition, Coils: Removal - Re-
fitting, page 17A-1) ,
-the spark plugs (see 17A, Ignition, Plugs: Re-
moval - Refitting, page 17A-12) .
aDisconnect the injector wiring connector (1) .aConnect a petrol compression gauge (2) .
aPut the vehicle under the starting conditions by posi-
tioning the gear lever in neutral.
II - TEST OPERATION
aActivate the starter until the needle of the petrol
compression gauge stabilises.
aMeasure the cylinder compressions, cylinder by cyl-
inder.
aFully depress the accelerator pedal in order to open
the throttle valve during the compression measure-
ments.
III - FINAL OPERATION
aDisconnect the petrol compression gauge.
aConnect the injector wiring connector.
aRefit:
-the spark plugs (see 17A, Ignition, Plugs: Re-
moval - Refitting, page 17A-12) ,
-the coils (see 17A, Ignition, Coils: Removal - Re-
fitting, page 17A-1) . Equipment required

Note:
It is necessar y to wait for at least 10 seconds
before starting the engine each time (the starter
will not run due to its ther mal protection).
