Work on the transistorized ignition system must be carried out at a workshop to ensure that sensitive and expensive parts are not damaged, short-circuited or otherwise disabled. The ignition system generates a high voltage that is dangerous to life, which is reminded by the corresponding stickers with warning inscriptions, and which we must remind you again. Based on this, it is necessary to familiarize yourself with the following safety rules before starting work on the ignition system.
Persons with heart disease are not allowed to work.
Do not remove the ignition wires while the engine is running. The same applies to the rotation of the engine with a starter.
Work on the ignition system, such as disconnecting or connecting wires, may only be carried out with the engine switched off and the ignition switched off.
Connection and disconnection of measuring devices is carried out only with the engine switched off and the ignition switched off.
When checking the compression in the cylinders, switch off the ignition and disconnect the plug of the control device (green wire). The same safety rules apply to valve adjustment, the motor shaft can only be turned by hand.
To check the ignition timing, use only a flash lamp of a compatible design.
To avoid damage to the ignition system, the following safety rules must be observed:
To terminal "1" ignition coil do not connect an interference suppression capacitor.
Terminals "1" And "15" Ignition coils must not be grounded as required by some anti-theft installation instructions.
Use only original parts in the ignition system.
Do not check the ignition system with the engine running. To check the ignition system for radio interference, it is unacceptable to remove the central wire of the ignition distributor and check for a spark, bringing it closer to ground. Do not remove the wires from the spark plugs while the engine is running.
