Repair Procedure B
REPAIR PROCEDURE "B" - COMBUSTION CHAMBER CLEANING & SPARK PLUG REPLACEMENTCAUTION:
The following steps will force un-burnt fuel from the combustion chambers through the spark plug holes. Use caution not to create sparks or other sources of ignition during these steps.
Perform this procedure in a well ventilated area.
1. Remove all 4 spark plugs from the engine.
2. Disconnect eccentric shaft position sensor (ESPS) B1-27.
NOTE:
This will cut fuel injection & spark while performing the procedure.
3. Place cloth near spark plug holes to absorb fuel residue.
4. Crank the engine until all fuel is purged from spark plug holes. (Do not crank engine longer than 10 seconds. If more than 10 seconds is required, wait 5 seconds in between cranking.) Perform this procedure in a well ventilated area.
5. Connect ESPS connector B1-27.
6. Install new spark plugs.
7. Attempt to start engine without depressing accelerator pedal.
^ If engine starts, proceed to STEP 5 of REPAIR PROCEDURE "A" - DECHOKE / ENGINE STARTING.
^ If engine fails to start, perform REPAIR PROCEDURE "C" - RESTORE ENGINE COMPRESSION.
NOTE:
If engine fails to start using the procedure above, the engine compression may be lower than specification due to fuel flooding. Perform REPAIR PROCEDURE "C" - RESTORE ENGINE COMPRESSION.
