IGNITION SYSTEM CHECK
1. Remove the spark plugs and
reattach them to the spark
plug caps.
2. Put the engine stop switch in
the “” position and the igni-
tion switch in the “ON” posi-
tion. While holding the spark
plug with its base firmly
against the engine, push the
electric starter switch. If the
ignition system is operating
properly, a blue spark should
jump across the spark plug
gap. If there is no spark, take
your machine to your autho-
rized Suzuki dealer or a quali-
fied mechanic.
COMPLAINT: Engine stalls.
1. Make sure there is enough fuel
in the fuel tank.
2. If the fuel injection indicator
displays “FI”, showing signs of
trouble in the fuel injection sys-
tem, take your machine to an
authorized Suzuki dealer.
Refer to the “INSTRUMENT
PANEL” section for an explana-
tion of the fuel injection system
indicator.
3. Check the ignition system for
intermittent spark.
4. Check the idle speed. If neces-
sary, adjust it using a tachom-
eter. The correct idle speed is
1000 – 1200 r/min.

Do not perform this check if

hole during this test. Do not

maker.
