12. TROUBLESHOOTING

To assure maximum service life from your carrier, don't disassemble it
unnecessarily. If the following basic troubleshooting does not get you
and your carrier back to work, it is time to consult your authorized
Honda dealer.

Check the following points if the engine does not start.

1.Is there sufficient fuel?
2.Is the fuel valve on?
3.Is gasoline reaching the carburetor?
To check, loosen the drain knob with the fuel valve on. Fuel should
flow out freely. Retighten drain knob.

Gasoline is flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Do not
smoke or allow flames or sparks near the equipment while draining
fuel.
4.Is the engine switch on?
5.Is the spark plug in good condition?
Remove and inspect the spark plug. Clean, readjust gap and dry the
spark plug. Replace it if necessary.
6.Have you followed the starting method as described on page 19?
• If the engine still does not start, take the carrier to an authorized
Honda dealer.
Check the following if the engine runs but the carrier does not operate
properly:
• Is the drive clutch cable adjusted (page 41)?
• Are the side clutch cables adjusted (page 44)?
• Is the brake cable properly adjusted (page 42)?
• Are the tracks adjusted to proper tautness (page 40)?
