is factory preset.
•
The
Ignition control
module
oeM)
may
be
damaged
if
dropped. Also,
if
the connector is
disconnected
when current is
flowing,
the
excessive voltage may
damage the
module.
•
A faulty ignition
system is often related
to poor
connections.
Check connections before

a spark plug of the correct
heat range.
Using a spark plug with an
