As part of maintenance, it is no longer necessary to adjust the idle speed, ignition timing and CO content, since the values of these parameters are constantly adjusted by the electronic system.
If the actual values of the operating parameters differ from the prescribed values, the cause is defective units that must be replaced. A professional check of the engine management system is only possible using special diagnostic devices.
