PRECAUTIONS
1. Do not leave the ignition switch on for more than 10minutes if the engine will not start.
2. With a tachometer connected to the system, connect the tester probe of the tachometer to terminal IG
of the
check (ºDIAGNOSISº) connector.
HINT:
wAllow the engine to warm up to normal operation
temperature.
w Set the tachometer to the 4±cylinder range.
3. As some tachometers are not compatible with this ignition system, we recommend that you confirm the
compatibility of your unit before use.
4. Never allow the tachometer terminal to touch ground as this could damage the igniter and/or ignition coil.
5. Do not disconnect the battery when the engine is running.
6. Check that the igniter is properly grounded to the body.
