Troubleshooting - Yamaha XS850G Owner's Manual

Troubleshooting

Although Yamaha motorcycles are given a
rigid inspection before shipment from the
factory, trouble may occur during operation.
If this happens, check the motorcycle in
accordance with the procedures given in the
following chart. If repair is necessary, ask a
qualified mechanic such as your Yamaha de-
aler for assistance. The skilled technicians at
your Yamaha dealer are trained and equip-
ped to perform the necessary maintenance
and repair work. For replacement parts,
Yamaha recommends you use Genuine
Yamaha Parts, or parts you know are equiva-
lent in quality.
Any problem in the fuel, compression or igni-
tion system can cause poor starting, exces-
sive emissions, engine damage, or loss of
power while riding. The troubleshooting
chart describes a quick and easy series of
system checks to locate the problem.
