1. Inspect the electrodes and ceramic insulator for:
Spark Plug lnspection
. lmproper gap. Oil-fouling. Carbon deposits. Cracked centerelectrode insulatorDamagedgaskei
Burned or worn electrodes may be caused by:
. Advanced ignition timing. Loose spark plug
. Plug heat range too low. Insufficient cooling
Fouled plugs may be caused bY:. Retarded ignition liming. Oil in combustion chamber. Incorrect spark plug gap
. Plug heat range too high. Excessive rdling'low speed running
. Clogged air cleaner element. Deteriorated ignition coil or ignition wires

Check for continuity between the positive terminal
and the engine (ground) with the ignition switch OFF.
a lf there is continuity, go to step 3.
a lf there is no continuity, replace the switch.
Check lor continuity again, this time with the engine
running.
a lf there is continuity, go to step 4.
a lf there is no continuity, the switch is OK.
Make sure engine oil level is OK, then check engine
oil pressure (see section 8).
a lf engine oil pressure is OK, replace the switch.
a lf engine oil pressure is low, check the engine oil
pump (see section 8) and, iI necessary, replace it.

Engine Oil Pressure
Indicator System
Description
NOTE: Refer to page 23-152 for the circuit diagram ofthe engine oil pressure indicator flasher. and to page 23
156 for the input test of the flasher circuit.
The low engine oil pressure indicator light works in twoways. lt will flash continuously following a momentaryloss ol oil pressure, or it will go on and stay on wath a
complete loss of oil pressure.
When the engine first starts, before oil pressure rises
above 29.4 kPa (O.3 kgf/cmr, 4.3 psi), current flows
through the low engine oil pressure indicator light andthe oil pressure switch to ground. This tests the circuit.
With the engine running, voltage is applied to the Ilash-er circuit of the integrated control unit. With normal oilpressure, the oil pressure switch is open and the low en-gine oil pressure indicator light does not operate. lf the
oil pressure switch closes momentarily (more than O.5
seconds). but then opens again, terminal "YEL/RED" will
sense ground through the switch- The integrated con-trol unit will then provide and remove ground tor the low
engine oil pressure indicator light through terminal"YEL/RED". The light will flash on and off untilthe igni
tion switch is turned to "OFF".
lf engine oil pressure talls below 29.4 kPa (O.3 kgf/cmr,
4.3 psi) and does not increase, the oil pressure switchwill stay closed. The low engine oil pressure indicator light
will go on and stay on.
NOTE: Refer to page 23-130 for the engine oil pressure
switch test.
