CHECKING THE COOLANT CIRCULATORY
SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
1. Check:
• Coolant level
2. Install:
• Radiator cap tester “1”
• Adapter “2”
3. Activate the tester to apply the test pressure.
ECA@
NOTICE
• Do not apply such a high pressure as ex-
ceeds the test pressure.
• Make sure that a checkup after the cylin-
der head gasket is replaced is made after 2
to 3 minutes of warm-up.
• Make sure that coolant is filled up to the
upper level beforehand.
4. Check:
• Pressure value
No stay for 5 to 10 seconds at the test pres-
sure value  Correct.
• Radiator
• Radiator hose connections
Coolant leaks  Correct or replace.
• Radiator hoses
Bulges  ReplaceEWA@
WARNING
When the radiator cap tester is removed,
coolant will spout; therefore, cover it with a
cloth beforehand.

WARNING
When the engine is started with the check

ways loosen it before the checkup.
Start the engine and keep it idling until oil
starts to seep from the oil pressure check
bolt.
EWA
WARNING
Always keep the engine idling speed during
the checkup without increasing the engine
speed.
ECA
NOTICE
If no engine oil seeps out after one minute,
immediately turn the engine off so it will not
seize.
b. If no engine oil seeps out, check the engine
oil for leaks, and the engine oil passage and
the oil pump for damage.
c. Check the oil pressure again.

EAS1SL1087ADJUSTING THE ENGINE IDLING SPEED
TIP
• Because the air pressure is lower at high alti-
tudes, the air-fuel mixture will become richer.
If the idling speed is low, turn the starter knob/
idle screw a few clicks counterclockwise to in
-
crease the speed before the adjustment.
• Before adjusting the engine idling speed,
make sure that the air filter element is not
clogged, the engine compression is proper,
and the throttle grip free play is proper.
• Adjust the engine idling speed with the starter
knob/idle screw pushed in completely.
1. Start the engine, and warm this up until the
oil has reached the specified temperature.
2. Attach the pocket tester with temperature
probe “1” to the oil drain bolt.
