COOLANT
INSPECTION
1. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL AT RADIATOR RESERVOIR
The engine coolant level should be between the ”LOW” and ”FULL” lines, when engine is cold.
If low, check for leaks and add engine coolant up to the ”FULL” line.
2. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT QUALITY
(a) Remove the radiator cap.
CAUTION:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the radiator cap while the engine and radiator
are still hot, as fluid and steam can be blown out under pressure.
(b) There should not be any excessive deposits of rust or scale around the radiator cap or radiator filler
hole, and the coolant should be free from oil.
If excessively dirty, replace the coolant.
(c) Reinstall the radiator cap.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check spark plug and spark of misfiring cylinder.
PREPARATION:
(a) Disconnect the high−tension cord from spark plug.
(b) Remove spark plug.
CHECK:
(a) Check the carbon deposits on electrode.
(b) Check electrode gap.
OK:
(1) No large carbon deposit present.
Not wet with gasoline or oil.
(2) Electrode gap: 1.1 − 1.3 mm (0.043 − 0.051 in.)
PREPARATION:
(a) Install the spark plug to the high − tension cord.
(b) Disconnect injector connector.
