choke rod from carburettor, and remove carburet-
tor from the unit.
3. To seal intake port, install Pressure rubber plug
897826-16131 (A) between intake bellows and
carburettor, using carburettor screws (C). Install
Pressure plate 897827-16131 (B) between carbu-
rettor and screw heads as spacer. Tighten screws
C
(C).
4. Loosen 4 muffler bolts. To seal exhaust port,
insert Pressure rubber plug 91041 (D) between

7. Connect Pressure / vacuum tester 91139 (J) to
pulse line using provided pipe joint (K).
8. Apply pressure approx. 50 kPa (0.5 bar) (7.1
psi) by the tester (J).
9. If the pressure drops, leakage may occur.
10. Leakage may occur from crankcase seam,
cylinder base, oil seal and spark plug. Use soapy
water to locate leakage.
J 11. Apply negative pressure approx. 30 kPa (0.3
bar) (4.3 psi) by the tester (J).
12. If the pressure decreases, leakage may occur
from oil seal. Inspect oil seal for damage or wear.
13. Remove pressure / vacuum tester (J), pipe
joint (K) from pulse pipe. Remove pressure rubber
