EWA12940
To prevent sparking, ground all spark plug
leads before cranking the engine.
The difference in compression pressure be-
tween cylinders should not exceed 100 kPa (1
kg/cm², 14 psi).
c. If the compression pressure is above the
maximum specification, check the cylinder
head, valve surfaces and piston crown for
carbon deposits.
Carbon deposits → Eliminate.
d. If the compression pressure is below the min-
imum specification, pour a teaspoonful of en-
gine oil into the spark plug bore and measure
again.

ADJUSTING THE EXHAUST GAS VOLUME
• Be sure to set the CO density level to standard,
and then adjust the exhaust gas volume.
• To adjust the exhaust gas volume, use the CO
adjustment mode of the Yamaha diagnostic
tool. For more information, refer to the opera-
tion manual of the Yamaha diagnostic tool.
1. Connect the Yamaha diagnostic tool to the
coupler. For information about connecting the
Yamaha diagnostic tool, refer to “YAMAHA
DIAGNOSTIC TOOL” on page 8-36.
