B: INSTALLATION
To install the front bumper, reverse the above removal pro-
cedures.
CAUTION:

Be extremely careful to prevent scratches on
bumper face as it is made of resin.

Be careful not to scratch the body when removing or
installing the bumper.

When installing canister, insert air vent hose of can-
ister into the hole on body.

A: REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
All spark plugs installed on an engine, must be of the
same heat range.
Spark plug:
CHAMPION: RC10YC4
(Alternate)
NGK: BKR6E-11
NIPPONDENSO: K20PR-U11
1) Remove spark plug cords by pulling boot, not cord itself.
2) Remove spark plugs.
3) When installing spark plugs on cylinder head, use spark
plug wrench.
Tightening torque (Spark plug):
20.6±2.9 N⋅m (2.10±0.30 kg-m, 15.19±2.14 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
The above torque should be only applied to new spark
plugs without oil on their threads.
In case their threads are lubricated, the torque should
be reduced by approximately 1/3 of the specified
torque in order to avoid their over-stressing.
4) Connect spark plug cords.
G6M0086
B: INSPECTION
Check electrodes and inner and outer porcelain of plugs,
noting the type of deposits and the degree of electrode
erosion.
G6M0087
1) Normal
Brown to grayish-tan deposits and slight electrode wear
indicate correct spark plug heat range.

2) Carbon fouled
Dry fluffy carbon deposits on insulator and electrode are
mostly caused by slow speed driving in city, weak ignition,
too rich fuel mixture, dirty air cleaner, etc.
It is advisable to replace with plugs having hotter heat
range.
G6M0089
3) Oil fouled
Wet black deposits show excessive oil entrance into com-
bustion chamber through worn rings and pistons or exces-
sive clearance between valve guides and stems. If same
condition remains after repair, use a hotter plug.
G6M0090
4) Overheating
White or light gray insulator with black or gray brown spots
and bluish burnt electrodes indicate engine overheating.
Moreover, the appearance results from incorrect ignition
timing, loose spark plugs, wrong selection of fuel, hotter
range plug, etc. It is advisable to replace with plugs having
colder heat range.
G6M0091
C: CLEANING AND REGAPPING
Clean spark plugs in a sand blast type cleaner.
Avoid excessive blasting. Clean and remove carbon or
oxide deposits, but do not wear away porcelain.
If deposits are too stubborn, discard plugs.
After cleaning spark plugs, recondition firing surface of
electrodes with file. Then correct the spark plug gap using
a gap gauge.
Spark plug gap: L
1.0—1.1 mm (0.039—0.043 in)

4. Ignition Coil
A: REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1) Disconnect battery ground cable.
2) Disconnect connector from ignition coil.
3) Remove ignition coil.
4) Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Be sure to connect wires to their proper positions.
Failure to do so will damage unit.

2. Generator
Turn ignition switch ON
(engine OFF).
Check if charge bulb
comes on.
YES
NO
Disconnect generator
body harness
connector.
Turn ignition switch to
“START.”(engine starts.)Check if charge bulb
comes on when terminal
(L) of body harness
connector is grounded.
YES
NO
Replace charge bulb.
Check IC regulator.
Check positive terminal
of diode.
Check if charge bulb is
OFF while engine idles.
NO
YES (Remains ON or blinks.)
Check or replace fan belt.
Check generator.
Check S or BAT terminal for improper
contact.
Measure VB* of battery
while running engine at
1,500 rpm.15.5 V is less than VB.
Replace IC regulator
assembly.
VB is less
than 12.5 V.12.5 V is less than or equal to VB, and
VB is less than or equal to 15.5 V.
Check IC regulator as a
single unit.
Turn light switch ON
while engine idles.Check if charge bulb
comes on.
YES
NO
No problems

temperature, dirt and oil on the bulb surface decreases
the bulb’s useful life. When replacing the bulb, hold the
flange portion and do not touch the glass portion.
