Troubleshooting TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE When troubles occur, be sure to check simple causes which, at fi rst, may seem too obvious to be considered. For example, a starting problem could be caused by an empty fuel tank. Some general common causes of engine troubles are listed below and vary by engine specifi cation. Use these to locate causing factors.

Troubleshooting COMPRESSION TEST For Command Twins: A compression test is best performed on a warm engine. Clean any dirt or debris away from base of spark plug(s) before removing them. Be sure choke is off, and throttle is wide open during test. Compression should be at least 160 psi and should not vary more than 15% between cylinders.
