1.Check that the porcelain insula-
tor around the center electrode
of the spark plug is a medium-to-
light tan (the ideal color when the
scooter is ridden normally).
NOTE:
If the spark plug shows a distinctly
different color, the engine could be
defective. Do not attempt to diagnose
such problems yourself. Instead,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
scooter.2.Check the spark plug for elec-
trode erosion and excessive car-

NOTE:
If a torque wrench is not available
when installing a spark plug, a good
estimate of the correct torque is
1/4Ð1/2 turn past finger tight.
However, the spark plug should be
tightened to the specified torque as
soon as possible.4.Install the spark plug cap.
5.Install the cowling. Tightening torque:

Engine oilThe engine oil level should be
checked before each ride. In addition,
the oil must be changed at the inter-

the oil change indicator light comes
on.To check the engine oil level
1.Place the scooter on the center-
stand.
NOTE:
Make sure that the scooter is posi-
tioned straight up when checking the
oil level. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.2.Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
