EMISSION CONTROL INFORMATION

To protect the environment in which we all live, Kawasaki has incorporated crankcase emission (1) and exhaust emission (2) control systems (EM) in compliance with applicable regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board. 1. Crankcase Emission Control System A sealed-type crankcase emission control system is used to eliminate blow-by gases. The blow-by gases are led to the breather chamber through the crankcase. Then, it is led to the air cleaner. Oil is separated from the gases while passing through the inside of the breather chamber from the crankcase, and then returned back to the bottom of crankcase. 2. Exhaust Emission Control System The exhaust emission control system applied to this engine consists of a carburetor and an ignition system having optimum ignition timing characteristics. The carburetor has been calibrated to provide lean air/fuel mixture characteristics and optimum fuel economy with a suitable air cleaner and exhaust system.
TAMPERING WITH EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM PROHIBITED

Federal law and California State law prohibits the following acts or the causing thereof: (1) the removal or rendering inoperative by any person other than for purposes of maintenance, repair, or replacement, of any device or element of design incorporated into any new engine for the purpose of emission control prior to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use, or (2) the use of the engine after such device or element of design has been removed or rendered inoperative by any person. Among those acts presumed to constitute tampering are the acts listed below: Do not tamper with the original emission related part: and internal parts Carburetor plug Spark Magneto electronic ignition system Fuel filteror element Air cleaner elements Crankcase Cylinder head Breather chamber and internal parts Intake pipe and tube
Foreword

1-2 GENERAL INFORMATION

Before Servicing
Before starting to service the engine, carefully read the applicable section to eliminate unnecessary work. Photographs, diagrams, notes, cautions, warnings, and detailed descriptions have been included wherever necessary. Nevertheless, even a detailed account has limitations, a certain amount of basic knowledge is required for successful work.
Especially note the following:

(1) Dirt Before removal and disassembly, clean the engine. Any dirt entering the engine, carburetor, or other parts, will work as an abrasive and shorten the life of engine. For the same reason, before installing a new part, clean off any dust or metal filings. (2) Tightening Sequence Generally, when installing a part with several bolts, nuts, or screws, start them all in their holes and tighten them to a snug fit. Then tighten them evenly, in a staggered sequence. This is to avoid distortion of the part and/or causing gas or oil leakage. Conversely when loosening the bolts, nuts, or screws, first loosen all of them by about a quarter of a turn and then remove them. Where there is a tightening sequence indication in this Service Manual, the bolts, nuts, or screws must be tightened in the order and method indicated. (3) Torque When torque values are given in this Service Manual, use them. Either too little or too much torque may lead to serious damage. Use a good quality, reliable torque wrench. (4) Force Common sense should dictate how much force is necessary in assembly and disassembly. If a part seems especially difficult to remove or install, stop and examine what may be causing the problem. Whenever tapping is necessary, tap lightly using a wooden or plastic-faced mallet. Use an impact driver for screws (particularly for the removal of screws held by a locking agent) in order to avoid damaging the heads. (5) Edges Watch for sharp edges, especially during major engine disassembly and assembly. Protect your hands with gloves or a piece of thick cloth when lifting the engine or turning it over. (6) High-Flash Point Solvent A high-flash point solvent is recommended to reduce fire danger. A commercial solvent commonly available in North America is Standard solvent (generic name). Always follow manufacturer and container directions regarding the use of any solvent. (7) Gasket, O-Ring Do not reuse a gasket or O-ring once it has been in service. The mating surfaces around the gasket should be free of foreign matter and perfectly smooth to avoid oil or compression leaks. (8) Press A part installed using a press or driver, such as a journal, should first be coated with oil on its outer or inner circumference so that it will go into place smoothly. (9) Oil Seal and Grease Seal Replace any oil or grease seals that were removed with new ones, as removal generally damages seals. When pressing in a seal which has manufacturers marks, press it in with the marks facing out. Seals should be pressed into place using a suitable driver, which contacts evenly with the side of seal, until the face of the seal is even with the end of the hole. (10)Seal Guide A seal guide is required for certain oil or grease seals during installation to avoid damage to the seal lips. Before a shaft passes through a seal, apply a little oil, preferably high temperature grease on the lips to reduce rubber to metal friction. (11)Lubrication Engine wear is generally at its maximum while the engine is warming up and before all the rubbing surfaces have an adequate lubricative film. During assembly, oil or grease (whichever is more suitable) should be applied to any rubbing surface which has lost its lubricative film. Old

Before Servicing
grease and dirty oil should be cleaned off. Deteriorated grease has lost its lubricative quality and may contain abrasive foreign particles. Dont use just any oil or grease. Some oils and greases in particular should be used only in certain applications and may be harmful if used in an application for which they are not intended. This manual makes reference to molybdenum disulfide grease (MoS2) in the assembly of certain engine parts. Always check manufacturer recommendations before using such special lubricants. (12)Electrical Wires All the electrical wires are either single-color or two-color and, with only a few exceptions, must be connected to wires of the same color. On any of the two-color wires there is a greater amount of one color and a lesser amount of a second color, so a two-color wire is identified by first the primary color and then the secondary color. For example, a yellow wire with thin red stripes is referred to as a "yellow/red" wire; it would be a "red/yellow" wire if the colors were reversed to make red the main color.
(13)Replacement Parts When there is a replacement instruction, replace these parts with new ones every time they are removed. There replacement parts will be damaged or lose their original function once removed. (14)Inspection When parts have been disassembled, visually inspect these parts for the following conditions or other damage. If there is any doubt as to the condition of them, replace them with new ones. Abrasion Crack Hardening Warp Bent Dent Scratch Wear Color change Deterioration Seizure (15)Specifications Specification terms are defined as follows: "Standards" show dimensions or performances which brand-new parts or systems have. "Service Limits" indicate the usable limits. If the measurement shows excessive wear or deteriorated performance, replace the damaged parts.

If the manufacturers instructions are not available, use the following procedure. Seat Cutter Operating Cares: 1. This valve seat cutter is designed only for valve seat repair. Therefore the cutter must not be used for other purposes. 2. Do not drop or hit the valve seat cutter, or the diamond particles may fall off. 3. Do not fail to apply engine oil to the valve seat cutter before grinding the seat surface. Also wash off ground particles sticking to the cutter with washing oil.
NOTE
Do not use a wire brush to remove the metal particles from the cutter. It will take off the diamond particles. 4. Setting the valve seat cutter holder [A] in position, operate the cutter [B] with one hand [C]. Do not apply too much force to the diamond portion.
NOTE
Prior to grinding, apply oil to the cutter, and during the operation wash off any ground particles sticking to the cutter with washing oil. 5. After use wash the cutter with washing oil and apply a thin layer of engine oil before storing.

Marks Stamped on the Cutter: The marks stamped on the back of the cutter represent the following.

Operating Procedures: Clean the seat area carefully. Recondition the valve seats with the valve seat cutters (45 , 32 ) and lap the valves. Check the seats for good contact all the way around with machinists dye. Measure the seat width [A]. If it is more than the STD width, the seating surface should be refaced. If the valve seating pattern is not correct, repair the seat.
the seat with machinists dye. Coat Fit a 45 seat cutter [A] to the holder and slide it into the valve guide.
Resurface the valve seat with a 45 cutter, removing only enough material to produce a smooth and concentric seat.
CAUTION
Do not grind the seat too much. Overgrinding will reduce valve clearance by sinking the valve into the head. If the valve sinks too far into the head, it will be impossible to adjust the clearance, and the cylinder head must be replaced. Do not turn the cutter counterclockwise or drop it against the seat, or it will be dulled.

CAUTION
The 32 cutter removes material very quickly. Check the seat width frequently to prevent over grinding.
NOTE
Keep the seat width as close as possible to the STD width. Make a light pass with the 45 cutter to remove any pos sible burrs at the edge of the seat. After the seat, inspect for even valve seating. Applyresurfacing a machinists dye to the valve face, insert the valve, and snap it closed against the seat several times. The valve surface should show good contact all the way around. Be sure the valve seat is centered on the valve face. The position of the valve in the seat is evident after lapping the valve. If the seat does not make proper contact, lap the valve into seat with a vacuum cap tool. the face of valve sparingly with a fine lapping com Coat pound. the vacuum cup tool [A], to grip top of the valve [B].

Carburetor
Fuel and Air Flow
The main system of the carburetor consists of the main jet [A], main nozzle [B], and the main air passage [C] (main air jet [D]). The main system meters fuel to the engine during moderate to high load conditions. Fuel flows through the main jet and into the main nozzle, where it is joined by air from the main air passage (main air jet). The resulting mixture flows out the end of the main nozzle into the carburetor bore, where it is atomized by the high speed air flow, and carried into the engine.
The pilot system includes the pilot jet [E], pilot screw [F] (Idle mixture screw), pilot air jet [G], pilot outlet [H], and the bypass holes [I]. The pilot system meters the fuel/air mixture while the engine is idling and running under a light load. Under these conditions there is very little air flow through the carburetor bore, so little that it is not enough to draw fuel through the main system of the carburetor and atomize it. Instead, the fuel is drawn through the pilot system, since the nearly closed throttle valve [J] causes high speed air flow past the pilot outlet and bypass holes (even at low engine speed). Fuel flow in the pilot system is metered by the pilot jet. Air for better atomization is admitted via the pilot air jet in the mouth of the carburetor. The fuel/air mixture passes into the bore of the carburetor side stream of the throttle valve through the bypass holes and pilot outlet. While the throttle valve is almost closed, it covers the small bypass holes opening into the bore from the pilot system. As the throttle valve begins to open, it uncovers the bypass holes, allowing more fuel/air mixture to flow. The extra flow is needed because the engine starts to run faster as the throttle is opened. The pilot screw controls the amount of fuel/air mixture allowed through the pilot outlet, but does not meter the bypass holes. A moderate amount of air comes in around the throttle valve at idle, so adjusting the pilot screw changes the fuel/air ratio. Turning the pilot screw (Idle mixture screw) out (Counterclockwise) enriches the mixture; turning it in (clockwise) leans the mixture. Main Fuel Flow Pilot Fuel Flow

High Idle Speed Adjustment
Refer to High Idle Speed Adjustment in the Periodic Maintenance Chapter (2nd chapter).
High Altitude Operation

At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be excessively rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase. High altitude performance can be improved by installing a smaller diameter main jet in the carburetor and correct high idle speed.
NOTE
The main jet high altitude kits are available if the equipment is to be used in the high altitudes. The main jet numbers are stamped on ends of the main jets.

To avoid fire, do not ground the spark plug in proximity to the plug hole. Keep the plug as far away as possible from the plug hole. the throttle fully open, turn engine over with the recoil With starter knob several times until the compression gauge stops rising, the compression is the highest reading obtainable.
Cylinder Compression (MIN)196 kPa (28.4 psi)
If the compression is higher than the specified value, the piston rings, cylinder and valves are probably in good condition. If the compression is too high, check the following: 1. Carbon build-up on the piston crown and cylinder head - clean off any carbon on the piston crown and cylinder head. 2. Cylinder head gasket - use only the proper gasket. The use of a gasket of incorrect thickness will change the compression. 3. Valve guides and piston rings - rapid carbon accumulation in the combustion chamber may be caused by worn valve guides or worn piston oil ring. This may be indicated by white exhaust smoke. If cylinder compression is lower than the (MIN), check the following: 1. Gas leakage around the cylinder head - replace the damaged gasket and check and check the cylinder head warp. 2. Condition of the valve seating. 3. Valve clearance. 4. Piston/cylinder wear, piston seizure. 5. Piston ring, piston ring groove.

Breather
The function of the breather is to create a negative pressure in the crankcase which prevents oil from being forced out of the engine through the piston rings, oil seals or gaskets. Valve controls direction of air flow caused by piston movement so that air flow from inside to outside can pass reed valve but not from outside to inside. Blow-by gas in crankcase passes through valve and expands in valve chamber. The air passes through expands in breather chamber. Then air passes through maze in breather chamber and is vented to intake pipe, through breather pipe.

Precautions
There are a number of important precautions that must be taken when servicing electrical systems. Learn and observe all the rules below. The electrical parts should never be struck sharply, as with a hammer, or allowed to fall on a hard surface. Such a shock to the parts can damage them. Troubles may involve one or in some cases all items. Never replace a defective part without determining what CAUSED the failure. If the failure was brought on by some other item or items, they too must be repaired or replaced, or the replacement part will soon fail again. Make sure all connectors in the circuit are clean and tight, and examine wires for signs of burning, fraying, etc. Poor wires and bad connections will affect electrical system operation. Measure coil and winding resistance when the part is cold (at room temperature). Electrical Connectors: Female Connector [A] Male Connector [B]

Circuit Composition
Co: Ignition Coil Core C: Condenser D1: Diode D2: Diode D3: Diode
E: Exciter Coil L1: Primary Coil L2: Secondary Coil SCR: Thyristor SP: Spark Plug
Action Principle
(1) Fundamental action 1. Genarated positive direction voltage by rotor rotated in the exciter coil (E) flow the electrical current through the diode (D1), and discharged to the condenser (C). 2. Generated opposite direction current flow to the thyristor (SCR) because of voltage had generated in the exciter coil (E) also at the opposite direction. 3. If the voltage of opposite direction reaches to the trigger voltage of the thyristor (SCR), the thyristor (SCR) will be ON state, and voltage is charged by the condenser (C) discharge rapidly to the primary coil (L1). 4. The primary voltage of several hundreds volt generate because of large electrical current flows rapidly to the primary coil (L1), the primary voltage are pressure risen by the secondary coil (L2), and turn into the secondary voltage of several thousands volt, and spark generate to the spark plug (SP) of output side. (2) Spark advance characteristic 1. If the revolutions number rises, the opposite direction voltage of exciter coil (E) which the trigger position of the thyristor (SCR) changes and spark advance because of voltage wave form will change. 2. Spark advance is controlled by spark advance characteristic control circuit in the figure. (3) Spark delay characteristic 1. The trigger position of the thyristor (SCR) changes and spark delay by decreasing the voltage wave form applied to the thyristor (SCR) in the revolutions number set up in the spark delay characteristic control circuit in the figure. 2. The start revolutions number of spark delay is controlled by spark delay characteristic control circuit in the figure.

Cautions of handling and maintenance
(1) Do not near the magnet by the heat of fire. (2) Ignition timing is no adjustment because of it is fixed. (3) When carry out the spark test, pull the recoil starter knob with strong force. If the flywheel does not turned more than the ignition revolutions, spark does not ignite.
