SHIFT LINKAGE INSPECTION
NOTE:
Shift rod is preset at time of manufacture.
Shift Linkage Rod
1. Inspect shift linkage tie rod ends, clevis pins, and
pivot bushings and replace if worn or damaged.
Lubricate the tie rod ends with a light aerosol
lubricant or grease.
2. Note orientation of tie rod end studs with the ends
that are up down (vertical). Remove both rod end
bolts from transmission bell crank.

VENT LINES
Check fuel tank, oil tank, carburetor, battery and
transmission vent lines for signs of wear,
deterioration, damage or leakage. Replace every two
years.
Be sure vent lines are routed properly and secured
with cable ties.
CAUTION:
Make sure lines are not
kinked or pinched.
FUEL FILTER
The fuel filter should be replaced in accordance with
the Periodic Maintenance Chart.
1. Relieve the pressure on the fuel rail. (See Ch. 4)
2. Remove line clamps at both ends of the filter.
3. Remove fuel lines from filter.
4. Install new filter with arrow pointed in direction of
fuel flow.
5. Install clamps on fuel line.
6. Start engine and inspect for leaks.
COMPRESSION TEST
NOTE:
This engine does NOT have decompression
components. Compression readings will vary in
proportion to cranking speed during the test. Average
compression (measured) is about
150-200 psi
during
a compression test.
A smooth idle generally indicates good compression.
Low engine compression is rarely a factor in running
condition problems above idle speed. Abnormally
high compression can be caused by carbon deposits
in the combustion chamber or worn, damaged
exhaust cam lobes.
Inspect camshaft and
combustion chamber if compression is abnormally
high.
