contact a professional to assist you.
m CAUTION!
Always switch off the engine and disconnect the ignition cable before starting any inspection or adjustment work.
m CAUTION!
If, after making an adjustment or repair to the engine, you let it run for a few minutes, remember that the exhaust pipe and
other parts will become hot. Thus, do not touch the parts that emanate heat, as these may burn you.
