4. VISUALLY INSPECT SPARK PLUGSCheck the spark plug for thread damage and insulator dam-
age.
If abnormal, replace the spark plug.
Recommended spark plug: ND PK20R11
NGK BKR6EP11
5. INSPECT ELECTRODE GAP
Maximum electrode gap: 1.3 mm (0.051 in.)
If the gap is greater than maximum, replace the spark plug.
Correct electrode gap of new spark plug:1.1 mm (0.043 in.)
NOTICE: If adjusting the gap of a new spark plug, bent
only the base of the ground electrode. Do not touch the
tip. Never attempt to adjust the gap on the used plug.
6. CLEAN SPARK PLUGS If the electrode has traces of wet carbon, allow it to dry and
then clean with a spark plug cleaner.
Air pressure: Below 588 kPa (6 kgf/cm2, 85 psi)
Duration: 20 seconds or less
HINT: If there are traces of oil, remove it with gasoline before
using the spark plug cleaner.
7. REINSTALL SPARK PLUGS Using a 16 mm plug wrench, install the spark plug.

IGNITION SYSTEM On±Vehicle Inspection
WhereEverybodyKnowsYourName

A pressure feeding lubrication system has been adopted to supply oil to \
the moving parts of this engine. The
lubrication system consists of an oil pan, oil pump, oil filter and other external p\
arts which supply oil to the moving
parts in the engine block. The oil circuit is shown in the illustration at th\
e top of the previous page. Oil from the
oil pan is pumped up by the oil pump. After it passes through the oil fi\
lter, it is fed through the various oil holes
in the crankshaft and cylinder block. After passing through the cylinder b\
lock and performing its lubricating func-
tion, the oil is returned by gravity to the oil pan. A dipstick on the center\
left side of the cylinder block is provided
to check the oil level.
OIL PUMP The oil pump pumps up oil from the oil pan and sends it under pressure to t\
he various parts of the engine.
An oil strainer is mounted in front of the inlet to the oil pump. The oil \
pump itself is a trochoid type pump, inside
of which there is a drive rotor and a driven rotor. When the drive rotor rotates, the driven rotor rotates in the same
direction, and since the axis of the driven rotor shaft is different from the center of the driven rotor, the space
between the two rotors is changed as they rotate. Oil is drawn in when the space\
is wide and is discharged when
the space in narrow.
OIL PRESSURE REGULATOR At high engine speeds, the engine oil supplied by the oil pump exceeds the\
capacity of the engine to utilize
it. For that reason, the oil pressure regulator works to prevent an over\
supply of oil. During normal oil supply, a
coil spring and valve keep the bypass closed, but when too much oil is being \
fed, the pressure become extremely
high, overpowering the force of the spring and opening the valves. This allow\
s the excess oil to flow through
the valve and return to the oil pump inlet.
OIL FILTER The oil filter is a full flow type filter with a built±in paper filter e\
lement. Particles of metal from wear, airborne
dirt, carbon and other impurities can get into the oil during use and co\
uld cause accelerated wear or seizing if
allowed to circulate through the engine. The oil filter, integrated into the oil line, removes these impurities as the
oil passes through it. The filter is mounted outside the engine to simplify\
replacement of the filter element. A relief
valve is also included ahead of the filter element to relieve the high oil pr\
essure in case the filter element be-
comes clogged with impurities. The relief valve opens when the oil pressure o\
verpowers the force of the spring.
Oil passing through the relief valve by±passes the oil filter and flo\
ws directly into the main oil hole in the engine.

OIL PRESSURE CHECK
1. CHECK ENGINE OIL QUALITYCheck the oil for deterioration, entry of water, discoloring or
thinning.
If the quality is poor, replace the oil.
Oil grade: API grade SG, Energy±Conserving II multi- grade. Recommended viscosity is as shown,
with SAE 5W±30 being the preferred engine

2. CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL The oil level should be between the ºLº and ºFº marks on the
dipstick.
If low, check for the leakage and add oil up to ºFº mark.
3. REMOVE ENGINE UNDER COVER
4. REMOVE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH, AND INSTALL OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
5. WARM UP ENGINE
Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating tempera-
ture.
6. CHECK OIL PRESSURE
Oil pressure:
At idling 29 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm
2, 4.3 psi)
or more
At 3,000 rpm 294±588 kPa (3.0±6.0 kg/cm

7. REMOVE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE AND REINSTALL OILPRESSURE SWITCH
Apply adhesive to two or three threads of the oil pressure
switch.

CHECK AND REPLACEMENT OF
ENGINE COOLANT
1. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL AT RESERVE TANKThe coolant level should be above the ºCOLD LEVELº at nor-
mal temperature (20 5C (68 5F)).
If low, check for leaks and add coolant up to the ºCOLD LEV-
ELº.
2. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT QUALITY There should not be any excessive deposits of rust or scales
around the radiator cap or reservoir tank filler hole, and the
coolant should be free from oil.
If excessively dirty, clean the coolant passages and replace
the coolant.
3. REPLACE ENGINE COOLANT (a) Remove the radiator cap from the reservoir tank.
CAUTION: To avoid the danger of being burned, do not
remove the cap while the engine and radiator are still hot,
as fluid and steam can be blown out under pressure.
(b) Remove the filler plug from the water inlet housing.
(c) Loosen the three drain plugs on the radiator and
cylinder block, drain the coolant from the radiator and
engine.
(d) Clean the coolant passages.
(e) Close the three drain plugs.
