PRECAUTIONS
. *
1. Do not leave the ignition switch on for more than 10
minutes if the engine does not start.

2. When a tachometer is connected to the system; con-

nect the tachometer test probe to the check connector
terminal IG 0 .
CHECK CONNECTOR LOCATION:
See pages FI-110, 111

3. As some tachometers are not compatible with this

ignition system, we recommended that you confirm
the compatibility of your unit before using.

4. NEVER allow the tachometer terminals to touch

ground as it could result in damage to the igniter and/
or ignition coil.

5. Do not disconnect the battery while the engine is run-

ning.

6. Make sure that the igniter is properly grounded to the

body.

ELECTRONIC SPARK ADVANCE (ESA)

The ECU is programmed with data for optimum ignitio
timing under any and all operating conditions. Using dat
provided by sensors which monitor various engine func
tions (rpm, intake air volume, eng. temperature, etc.) th
microcomputer (ECU) triggers the spark at precisely th
right instant.
