z Remove spark plug cap, install a new spark plug
into cap and connect as illustrated on the right with
cylinder head as ground.
z Connect multimeter and peak voltage adaptor as
under:
+Probe: Green lead wire or Ground
-Probe: Black/Yellow lead wire
Note:
z Make sure battery voltage ≥12V, ignition coil lead
wire is connected.
z Refer to user’s manual when using multimeter and
peak voltage adaptor.
z Shift the gear to neutral position and turn the ignition
switch to the “ON” position;
z Press the starter button and crank the engine
several seconds, then measure the ignition coil
primary peak voltage;
