  • Page 13 Electrical system The engine is equipped with an electronic ignition system completely without moving parts. Consequently, a faulty component cannot be repaired, but must be replaced by a new component. The spark in an electronic ignition system has a very short burn time and can therefore be interpreted as weak and can be diffi cult to see while troubleshooting.

Replace the switch if necessary. If the plug now sparks, the fault is either in the stop switch or the short-circuit cable.

    Cylinder and piston The cylinder and the piston are two of the components exposed to most strain in the engine. They must withstand, for example, high speeds, large temperature swings and high pressure. Moreover, they must be resistant to wear. Despite these tough working conditions, major piston and cylinder failure is relatively uncommon.

  • Page 54 Cylinder and piston Piston scoring caused by heavy carbon deposits Too heavy carbon depositing can cause damage similar to that caused by insuffi cient lubrication. However, the piston skirt has a darker colour caused by the hot combustion gases that are blown past the piston. This type of piston damage starts at the exhaust port where carbon deposits can be- come loose and get trapped between the piston and the cylinder wall.

    Crankshaft and crankcase The task of the crankshaft is to transform the reciprocating motion of the piston to rotation. This requires a stable design withstanding immense pressure and rotational and bending strain, as well as high rotational speed. In addition the connecting rod is exposed to large acceleration and retardation forces as it moves bet- ween the top and bottom dead centres.
