AND IGNITION COIL ASSEMBLY REPAIR (Cont)
CAUTIO N
Do not exceed 18 volts direct current on air pump. Excessive voltage will overspeed air
pump and damage pump vanes.
NOT E
Install vanes, plate, and screws in air pump before testing.
Use fabricated test lead (16) to reduce a 24 Vdc power source to 18 Vdc. Connect lead
in series with positive terminal of power source.
(a) Connect an 18 V dc power source to air pump (4). Connect positive lead to terminal (17)
marked (+) and negative lead to unmarked terminal (18).
NOT E
Use digital multimeter to measure amperage.
Adapt pump outlet to fit a tire pressure gage or other suitable measuring device to
measure air output pressure.
(b) Measure air pressure and amperage. Air pressure at outlet port elbow (11) must be a
minimum of 10 PSI at 18 V dc. Pump must draw a maximum of 25 amperes.
(c) Remove power source from terminals (17 and 18).
