5. Measure:
• Compression pressure
Out of specification → Refer to steps (b)
and (c).
Minimum compression pressure
(reference data):
1,150 kPa
(11.5 kgf/cm
Measurement steps:
a. With the throttle wide open, crank the
engine until the reading on the compres-
sion gauge stabilizes.
NOTE:
The difference in compression pressure
between cylinders should not exceed 100
2
kPa (1 kgf/cm
b. If the compression pressure is extremely
high, check the cylinder head, valve sur-
faces and piston crown for carbon depos-
its.
Carbon deposits → Eliminate.
c. If the compression pressure is below the
minimum specification, squirt a few drops
of oil into the cylinder and measure
again.
Refer to the following table.
Compression pressure
(with oil applied into the cylinder)

without oil
Same as without
