NOTE:

• Because of the plastic body shell on your vehicle,

ignition cables should be replaced with the specially
designed RFI cables available at your dealer.

• The ignition timing cannot be set on this engine.

Crankcase Emission Control System

Proper operation of this system depends on freedom
from plugging due to deposits. As vehicle mileage builds
up, the Crankcase Ventilation Valve orifice may accumu-
late deposits. If a valve is not working properly, it should
be replaced with a new orifice. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
CLEAN THE OLD ORIFICE!

Check the ventilation hose for indication of damage or
plugging deposits and replace if necessary. See your
authorized dealer for service.

Maintenance-Free Battery

The top of the MAINTENANCE-FREE battery is perma-
nently sealed. You will never have to add water, nor is
periodic maintenance required.

The battery is located underneath an access panel inside
the rear compartment on the left side of the vehicle. A
remote battery terminal is located in the engine compart-
ment for jump-starting.

To gain access to the battery, remove the floor portion of
the rear compartment carpet.
