NSPECTION OF BATTERY
1.
CHECK BATTERY SPECIFIC GRAVITY
(a)
Check the specific gravity of each cell.
Standard specific gravity
When fully charged at 20°C (68°F): 1 .25 — 1.27
If not within specification, charge the battery.
(b)
Check the electrolyte quantity of each cell.
If insufficient, refill with distilled (or purified) water.
2.
CHECK BATTERY TERMINALS, FUSIBLE LINKS
AND FUSES
(a)
Check that the battery terminals are not loose or
corroded.
(b)
Check the fusible links and fuses for continuity.

NSPECTION OF HIGH
-
TENSION CORDS
1.
CAREFULLY REMOVE HIGH-TENSION CORDS BY
THEIR RUBBER BOOTS FROM SPARK PLUGS
NOTICE: Pulling on or bending the cords may damage
the conductor inside.
2.
INSPECT HIGH-TENSION CORD RESISTANCE
Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance without dis-
connecting the distributor cap.
Maximum resistance: 25 kQ per cord
If resistance is greater than maximum, check the termi-
nals. If necessary, replace the high-tension cord and/or
distributor cap.
