22. Locate the new pink/black wire lead set (Part
Number: 6J8-82531-00-00), and connect one
end of its pink lead to the connector that goes
to the pink thermoswitch wire at the back of
the motor.* There is a pink "T" lead remain-
ing to be connected near the CDI box.
Connect the pink wire leading from the CDI
box* and the pink lead that goes to the oil
level gauge (tank switch) and oil warning
light* to the pink "T" leads. Connect the sin-
gle black (ground) male butt connector lead
to the black thermoswitch wire. Install one of
the black leads with the ring terminal under
the appropriate cylinder head bolt*, and tight-
en the bolt to specification (1st torque -
1.5kg-cm [11 ft-lb.]); 2nd torque - 2.8kg-m
[20 ft-lb.]), Install the other ring-terminal
black lead under the head of the "ground"
bolt that is located behind the terminal cover.
*The same color wire lead in the harness you
