II. Preparation before the use of the timing light
2-1 Before any test, check carefully and eliminate all mechanical trouble. Loose connection
or damage of the pipe, wire, and connector will result in abnormal operation of the engine.
2-2 Follow the repair manual, check whether the vacuum pipeline, wire, and wire bunch
connector are correctly connected, then check the following parts:
all liquid level
spark plug and high voltage wire of the spark plug
air filter
vacuum pipeline
belt
circuit
circuit connector
2-3 Check the preparation of the ignition timing engine:
2-3-1 Before checking the ignition timing, make preparations of the engine, check the
discharge control plate of this vehicle or the test procedure and technical requirement for
the ignition timing in the repair manual. The discharge control plate of the vehicle is inside
the engine chamber, the usual position is: the back of the engine hood, the engine bulk-
head, the top of the valve chamber cover or near the engine hood lock.
2-3-2 Make the following preparations at least:
Find the timing scale and the position of the indicator. The timing scale and the indicator
are usually at the crank pulley, crankshaft vibration damper (at the front of the engine) or
the flywheel (between the engine and the transmission), etc. (see Fig. 2)
