Adjustment is required only when the ignition coil or the
flywheel has been removed.
1) Loosen the ignition coil bolts.
2)
Insert a long thickness guage or a piece of paper of the
proper thickness between the ignition coil and the fly-

d. INSPECTION
• IGNITION COIL
<Primary side>
Measure the resistance of the primary coil by attaching one
ohmmeter lead to the ignition coil's primary (black) lead
while touching the other test lead to the iron core.
Primary side resistance value 0.8 - 1.0 0
<Secondary Side>
Measure the resistance of the secondary side of the coil by
removing the spark plug cap and touching one test lead to
the spark plug lead wire while touching the other lead to the
coil's iron core.
Secondary side resistance value 5.9-7.1 kO
NOTE
• A false reading will result if the spark plug cap is not
removed.
