Fuses
This engine has three (3) blade type automotive fuses.
Replacement fuses must have the same rating as the
blown fuse. Use the fuse chart below to determine the
correct fuse.
Wire Color Fuse Rating
2 Purple Wires 30-amp Fuse
1 Red Wire with Black Stripe
1 Red Wire with White Stripe
10-amp Fuse
2 Red Wires 10-amp Fuse
To Replace a Fuse:
1. Shut engine off and remove key.
2. Locate the fuse holders.
3. Remove the fuse cover and pull out fuse.
4. Inspect the fuse for a solid fusible link or a
broken fusible link. Replace the fuse if the fusible
link is broken. If you are not sure if the fusible
link is broken, replace the fuse.
5. Insert the fuse into the fuse holder until it is
seated properly. Install the fuse cover.
Electric Starting Motors
These engines use solenoid shi starters.
Starting Motor Precautions
NOTE: Do not crank the engine continuously for
more than 10 seconds at a time. If the engine
does not start, allow a 60-second cool-down
period between starting a empts. Failure
to follow these guidelines can burn out the
starter motor.
NOTE: If the starter cranks the engine but does not
start the engine, the engine rotation must be
allowed to come to a complete stop before
a empting to restart the engine again. If
the starter is engaged while the fl ywheel is
rotating, the starter pinion and fl ywheel ring
gear may clash, resulting in damage to the
starter.
NOTE: If the starter does not crank the engine, shut
off the starter immediately. Do not make
further a empts to start the engine until the
condition is corrected.
NOTE: Do not drop the starter or strike the starter
frame. Doing so can damage the starter.
Starter Removal and Installation
Refer to the Disassembly and Reassembly Sections
for starter removal and installation procedures.
Battery
Continuously
Charges at
High Rate
1. Perform same test as step 1
above.
1. If the voltage is 14.7 volts or less the charging
system is OK. The ba ery is unable to hold a
charge. Service ba ery or replace as necessary.
If voltage is more than 14.7 volts, the rectifi er-
regulator is faulty. Replace rectifi er-regulator.
