1-28)
The ignition system adopts CDI unit and the ignition timing cannot be adjusted.
If the timing is incorrect, inspect the CDI unit and A.C. generator and replace any faulty parts.
Inspect the CDI unit with a CDI tester
Loose connector and poor wire connection are the main causes of faulty ignition system. Check
each connector before operation.
Use of spark plug with improper heat range is the main cause of poor engine performance.
The inspections in this section are focused on maximum voltage. The inspection of ignition coil
resistance is also described in this section.
Inspect the ignition switch according to the continuity table specified in page
19-3.
Inspect the spark plug referring to Section 3.
Remove the A.C. generator and pulser coil referring to Section 10.
