CHECKING THE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
1. Remove:
•Coolant temperature sensor
Refer to "REMOVING THE CYL-
INDER HEAD" section in the
CHAPTER 4.
•Handle the coolant temperature
sensor with special care.
•Never subject the coolant tem-
perature sensor to strong
shocks. If the coolant tempera-
ture sensor is dropped, replace
it.
2. Check:
• Coolant temperature sensor re-
sistance
3. Connect:
•Tester
Tester (+) lead → Brown lead "1"
Tester (-) lead → Black/Blue lead
"2"
4. Immerse the coolant temperature
sensor in a container filled with
coolant.
Make sure the coolant temperature
sensor terminals do not get wet.
5. Place a thermometer "3" in the
coolant.
6. Slowly heat the coolant, and then
let it cool to the specified temper-
ature indicated in the table.Out of specification → Replace.
CHECKING THE INTAKE AIR
PRESSURE SENSOR
1. Check:
• Intake air pressure sensor output
voltage
2. Connect:
• Test harness S–pressure sensor
(3P) "1"
•Tester
Tester (+) lead → Pink/White lead
(wire harness color)
Tester (-) lead → Black/Blue lead
(wire harness color)
3. Connect the FI diagnostic tool
sub-wire harness to a battery, and
then set the switch on the harness
to "ON".
When checking the intake air pres-
sure sensor, do not start the en-
gine.
4. Measure the intake air pressure
sensor output voltage.
Out of specification → ReplaceCHECKING THE INTAKE AIR
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
1. Remove:
• Intake air temperature sensor
(from the air filter case.)
•Handle the intake air temperature
sensor with special care.
•Never subject the intake air tem-
perature sensor to strong
shocks. If the intake air tempera-
ture sensor is dropped, replace
it.
2. Check:
• Intake air temperature sensor re-
sistance
3. Connect:
•Tester
Tester (+) lead → Brown/White
lead "1"
Tester (-) lead →Black/Blue lead
(wire harness color) "2"
Out of specification → Replace.
CHECKING THE ATMOSPHERIC
PRESSURE SENSOR
1. Check:
• Atmospheric pressure sensor out-
put voltage
2. Connect:
• Test harness S- pressure sensor
(3P) "1"
•Tester
Tester (+) lead → Pink lead (wire
harness color)
Tester (-) lead → Black/Blue lead

CHASSIS
SETTING OF SPRING AFTER
REPLACEMENT
After replacement, be sure to adjust
the spring to the set length [sunken
length 90–100 mm (3.5–3.9 in)] and
set it.
1. Use of soft spring
• Set the soft spring for less re-
bound damping to compensate
for its less spring load. Run with
the rebound damping adjuster
one or two clicks on the softer
side and readjust it to suit your
preference.
2. Use of stiff spring
• Set the soft spring for more re-
bound damping to compensate
for its greater spring load. Run
with the rebound damping adjust-
er one or two clicks on the stiffer
side and readjust it to suit your
preference.
Adjusting the rebound damping will
be followed more or less by a change
in the compression damping. For cor-
rection, turn the low compression
damping adjuster on the softer side.
When using a rear shock absorber
other than currently installed, use
the one whose overall length "a"
does not exceed the standard as it
may result in faulty performance.
Never use one whose overall
length is greater than standard.
REAR SHOCK ABSORBER
SETTING PARTS
• Rear shock spring "1"
• The I.D. mark "a" is marked at the
end of the spring.
• Spring specification varies accord-
ing to the color and quantity of I.D.
marks.
• Extent of adjustment (spring pre-
load)
For the spring preload adjustment, re-
fer to "ADJUSTING THE REAR
SHOCK ABSORBER SPRING PRE-
LOAD" in the CHAPTER 3.
