MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Carburetor/Engine Idle RPM Adjustment
The idle speed adjustment should be performed as outlined in the
Periodic Maintenance Schedule, or whenever the idle speed is changed.
Recommended engine idle RPM is 1200 +/- 200. If the engine idle
speed is not satisfactory, and all other conditions are favorable, the
carburetor can be adjusted with the following procedure.
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Place the gear shift lever in the neutral
position.
3. Warm up the engine by running the vehicle
approximately five minutes.
4. Remove the the seat and locate the idle
screw (1).
5. Place the transmission in gear (with the
parking brake applied.)
6. Adjust the carburetor idle screw in or out
until the desired idle RPM is reached.
Turn the screw in (clockwise) to raise
RPM. Turn the screw out
(counterclockwise) to lower RPM.
Cylinder Head/Cylinder Base Fastener Torque
Have your dealer check the RANGER cylinder head and cylinder base
fasteners for proper torque at the first service or after 25 hours.
