STARTING SYSTEM
The troubles of starting system may be divided into
“Starting motor does not turn”, “Starting motor
turns but engine does not start” and “It takes some
time before engine starts”. When there is something
wrong with starting system, therefore, it is important
to determine which part of starting system is defec-
tive with starting motor attached to engine.
Set ignition switch to “ST”. Does
switch make operating sound?’

Generally, starting difficulty, aside from inoperative
starting -motor, is often attributable to defective
ignition system, fuel system, battery, electrical
wiring, etc. If makeshift corrective steps are taken
without locating the cause, same trouble will develop
again.
