GENERAL DESCRIPTION
3. ENGINE
In the gasoline engine. the
fuel and air is mix in the proper ratio
and this mixture is taken into the cyli
nder in a vapor condition where i t is
compressed and ignited, the r esulting
combustion forces the piston down.
ward, and tl1e com bustion pressure is
transformed to the rota r y motion of
the crankshaft by means of the conne·
c ling rod.
T he opera t ion of the eng ine
is quit e sim ilar to the pedaling o f a
bicycle, with power produced by ped.
aling considered as the combus tion
pressure of an air. fuel mixture, the
foot acting the role of the piston, the
pedal the connecting rod. and the spr.
ocket simulating the crankshaft
i l Spark p lug
2 Valve '3' Cyl inder
·~ Piston t!?) Connectingrod ~ Crankshaft
The gasoline engine produces power at the crankshaft by the following four sequence of events, or strokes.
Intake -+ @:; Compression -+ @
Power ---+ @ Exhaust
The term "cycle" is applied to one complete sequence of these four strokes. When the entire cycle of
events in the cylinder reQuires four strok es ( two crankshaft revolu tion), t he engine is referred to as a fou r -c ycle
engine. An engine which accomplishes the en t ire cycl e of events in two strokes (one cranksha f t revolut ion), is
referred to as a two - cycle engine. P-50 is equipped w ith a f our.cyc:e engine. (Fig. 3- 3-6)

Operation of the Four-cycle Engine
The four-cycle engine requires two reciprocating sequence of the piston
( two crankshaft revolutions)
to
complete the intake, compression, power and exhaust strokes.
INTAKE
(Intake of the fuel-air mixture)
Air Cleaner
If the air that is used to mix with the fuel is dirty, a great amount of dust and grit enters the carburetor
to cause troubles and they eventually pass into the cylinder to cause rapid wear to the cylinder.
The air cleaner serves to clean the air entering the carburetor.
The air cleane r removes the dust from the air and permits only the clean air to enter the carburetor
through the air cleaner connecting tube. (Fig. 3-7)

Air blown through t he pipe A increases in veloc ity
as the air leaves the narrow outlet, causing a decr ease
in pressure. The decr eased pressur e draws the water
out of the st and pipe 8 which becomes atom ized as i t

The carburetor performs the same funct ion, it dra ws

The fuel which is delivered from the tank first
enters the float chambe r of the carbure tor. Fuel in the
float chamber is always main tained at a constant level
by the action of the float which regulates the v alve. If
there we r e no means to maintain the fuel level constant ,
'(2)
'
the fuel will overflow out of the float chamber or else
there will be insufficient f low of fuel int o the carbure tor.
During the intake strok e of the engine, the inle t

pressure in t he cyl inder. The air r ush es in from the
carburetor.
As air f lows through the venturi, the velocity of the
air increases as i t mOVtlS through the narrow throat and
causes a decrease in pressur e. causing t he gasoline t o
be drawn out o f the nozzle as a sprav and mixes with
the passing air stream. The volume of air-fuel m ixt ure
that enter s the cy linder is regulated by the amount of
opening or closing of the throttle valve. (Fig. 3 - 10 )
The choke valve is used to permit the carburetor
to supply the engine with the rich mixture required for
star t ing during cold weather.
The choke button is
located at the handle mounting. (Fig. 3 - 12)

1.
Air System
The carburetor use d is a down draft type which
draws the air into the carburetor from the top.
As shown in the figure 15, the air from t he air
cleaner en ters the inlet opening @, passes by the
th rottle v alv e ® and is drawn into the engine artor
passing through the venturi @.
The engine power output is determined by the
volume of air flow which is controlled by the movement of th e throttle valve ® to va r y the opening of
the venturi.
®
2.
Fuel System
The air f low passing through t he venturi ® pro.
duces negative pressure at the restriction under the
throttle valve ®. where the fuel nozzle is located.
Ther e are two sys t em s, the main and the slow system,
in the fuel system.
a.
Fig. 3-16
M ain system
The fuel enters the main jet '.i), and in the
main jet. it mixes wi th the air f rom the air bleed
17
:§) after the air have been metered by the air jet ®. The fuel and air mix ture passes through the opening
between the needle jet '!) and jet needle ® to be discharged as a spray at the throttle valve @. The fuel
spray mixes with the main incoming air and becomes atomized before being taken into the engine.
b.
3.
Slow system
The air which enters from the inlet opening 1; passes around the outside of the air screw ® where it
is metered and then enters the bleed hole @ of the slow jet ~- On the other hand. the fuel from the
float chamber after being metered by the pilot @ and metered again at the jet area @ of the slow jet
iii. mixes with the air from the bleed hole ® within the slow jet and is discharged at the bottom of the
throttle valve '-~ from the pilot outlet @, to mix w i th the main flow of air from the carburetor air inlet
II' and is taken into the engine.
Float Chamber
It is necessary for the carburetor t o supply the proper fue l mixtur e to the engine under all di fferent throttle opening and engine speed: in order to do this. the fuel level mus t be maintained at a const ant level. It is
the function or the float chamber to perform this task.
The fuel from the tank flows through the passage@, passes between the valve seat @ and the float va lve
@, and then enters the float chamber @. As the fuel level in the fl oa t chamber r ises. the float @ becomes
buoyant, float arm @ applies pressure against the float valve forcing it against the valve seat to shut off the
flow of the fuel. When the fuel in the float chamber is consumed, the fuel level drops wi th the consequent
lowering of the flo:st , this causes the float valve to unseat and permi t s the f uel to enter the float chamber.
This cycle is repeated to maintain a constant fuel level @ in the floa t chamber.
4. Overflow Pipe
When dirt becomes clogged in the float valve. fue l overflows from the needle jet and the slow jet. overflowing
into the cylinder to dilute the lubricating oil. Therefore. to prevent a condition where the fuel rises above a
certain level. an overflow pipe ® is inserted in the float chamber to drain any excess fuel. The location of the
overflow pipe is such that only the fuel rising above the overflow opening is drained out.
5. Choke
During cold weather starting, it may be necessary
to init ially use a rich fuel mixture. For this purpose.
a choke valve ~ is incorporated.
When the choke button is pulled the choke valve
is closed. however, there is a relief valve @ installed
on the choke valve and is kept closed by a relief
spring @. When the throttle valve ® is opened ap.
proximately 1/ 4. and the engine pedalled, the cylinder
suction pressure causes the relief va lve to open and
permitting the air to en ter the ca r buretor. As this
air passes the throttle va lve, a nega ti ve pre ssure is
created which dr aws the fuel out of the pilot outet
@ and the needle jet (i) ; mixing wi th t he air to
form a rich fuel air mixtur e ideal f or st arting. This
mixture is taken into the cyl inder for combustion.
After the engine has started, the suction pressure
of the intake air increases, resulting in a corresponding wider opening of the relief valve to maintain the
same rich fuel air mixture.
The opening of the relief valve @ changes according to the opening of throttle valve ~The choke valve @ can be kept completely closed
during warm-up driving and fully opened after warmup. (Fig. 3 17)

Jet Needle
The jet needle. in conjuction wi th the needle jet
described earlier. regulates the fuel mixture at the
int ermediate throttle opening (principdlly between
1 / 4 to 3/ 4 throttle opening ). The long t apered jet
needle is located within the center hole of the throt.

ing to afford a correct fuel mixture ratio.
There are five clip grooves ( which are counted
from the top) on the head of the jet needle to regulate
the richness of the fuel mixture.
The fuel mixture becomes richer as the clip is
moved progressi vely from the No. 1 g roove to the
No. 5 groove. (Fig. 3 19)

ing the fuel air mixtu re.
The throttle valve has a cut -away on the air inlet
side.
19
Changing the size of the cut-away ( designated by
cut-away No.) . the pressure actuating the needle valve
can be altered to change the amount of fuel flow and
causes a change to the fuel mixture. The va lve with
a larger cut-away number will produce a leaner fuel
mixture. However, the range of its effectiveness is
mainly at low speed. from idling speed to approxi mately 1/4 throt tle opening and has no effect above
1/2 throttle opening.
A throttle stop screw sets the thrott le va lve in
the idle position. Screwing in on the stop screw
will cause the throttle valv e to rise. and backing off
will lower the throttle valve.
6.
Slow Jet
1 he slow jet regulates the fuel flow during idling
and small thrott le opening, and perm its t he air to
en ter throu gh the air bleed to m ix with the fuel for
atomization. The slow jet is similar to the main jet
in that the lar ger t he jet size number, the great er
will be the luel flow and consequent ly a richer fuel
air m ixtur e. ( Fi g. 3-20)
7.
Air Scre w
The air screw regulates the amount of air m1x1ng
with the fuel in the slow speed system by controlling
the amount of pilot air bleeding with the fuel entering throu gh the slow jet. In this way, the proper
fue l air mixture is maintained. Screwing in the air
screw w ill produce a rich fuel-a ir mixture by restrict·
ing the air bleed hole and backing off on the screw

COMPRESSION (Compress the fuel air
mixture in the cylinder)
Piston
The piston plays an important role by performing
the intake, compression, power and exhaust funct ions.
It is alternately cooled by the intake fue l-air mixture
or exposed to the ho t gases resulting f rom the combus tion. If the piston is close ly fi tted agains t the cyl inder wa ll w i thou t clea ranc e as shown in the ri g. 3 2 1,
it would not operate smoothly and may result in seizure.
On the other hand, excessive c learance between the
pis ton and cylinder wall will result in insu fficient intake
of ruel -air mi xture, causing low compression, oil pumping (oil enters the combustion c11amber ) , etc .. and
conseQuence poor engine performance. Therefore, a
good seal must be maintained between the pis ton and
cylinder wall. For this purpose, piston rings are installed to provide the necessary seal.
The piston is made of aluminum die cast ing equivalen t to SAE 8630. This ma teria l is light and has good
heat conducting proper t y so th at tile heat f rom the
combust ion can be dissipate rapidl y. Fur the rmor e, t his
mater ial has a small coeffic ient of expansion, thus
minimiling the expansion o f the piston at elevated
temperature and permits a small piston to cylinder
clearnace design.

Piston Offset
As shown in the figure 3- 22, the piston pin is offset
slightly from tile piston centerline.
This is to reduce
the side load against the cylinder wall and by so doing
pr event piston sl ap. (Fig. 3 - 22)
Piston Shape
The shape of the piston is an ellipt ical taper. This
is because the head of the piston, compared to the
sk irt, is expose d to much higher temperature and since

are assembled int o an integral unit by press fitting. It
is supported at the both ends wi th 6202 ball bearings.
The right and left crankshafts, are proportional ly

Tappet Clearanc e
The clearance betwe~n the va lve and rocker arm
is referred to as the tappet c learance. Proper clea.
ranee is required for the valve to fully close. If the
clearance is too small. it will keeps the valve from
completely closing, produc ing a low compression ; on
th e o ther hand, if the clearance is too lar ge, tappet
noise resul t s.
The tappet clearance w ill greatl y affects the en.
gine output, revolution and noise. Standard tappet
clearance measured cold is 0.05 mm ( 0.002 in) for
both the inlet ;mrl P.Xhaust va lves. ( Fig. 3- 53)

The valve spring applies force on the valve to keep
it closed. T he spring force should neither be too strong nor too weak. If the spring force is too weak.
the valve will not close fully , resulting in Joss of com.
pression, exhaust leak, etc; on the other hand, i f the
spring force is too strong, it requires unnecessary
force to oper ate the valves and also cause rapid wear

Valve Timing
It may seem to be correct to have the inlet and exhaust valves opening and closing at top-dead-center
and bottom-dead-center.
However, as can be seen from Fig. 3 55, the valves are not timed in this manner. If
the inlet va lve starts to open at top-dead-center , the piston will travel some d istance before the valve becomes
fully opened to take t he air -fuel mixture into the cyl inder. Consequently, sufficient air-fuel m ix ture is no t obtained during the inlet stroke.
dead-center of the inlet stroke.
Therefore, the inlet valve is timed to start opening several degrees before top.
In addition, the inertia will keep the air-fuel mixture flowing into the cylinder
for several degrees beyond the the bottom-dead-center of the inlet stroke.
To take full advantage of the
intake fuel enertia to obtain greater power output from th e eugine, the inlet valve is kept open several degrees
beyond bottom-dead-center.
In a similar manner, the exhaust valve opens several degrees before bottom -dead-center of t he power
stroke in order to utilize difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the cylinder for greater scavengtng of the exh aust gas from the cylinder . 1he valve closes severi:ll degrees past top-dead -center beyond
the exhaust stroke in order to utilize the exhaust gas inertia to completel y r id the cylind er of the exhaust gas.
During the period of several degrees before and after top-dead-center of the exhaust stroke, both the
inlet and exhaust valves are opened; this period is called ·• valve overlap", and it serves to prev ent the resi dual exhaus t gases from blocking the entry of the air-fuel mixture. ( Fig. 3 - 55)

By u tilizing centrifugal force, the c lutch engages and disengages the power au tomatically in accordance
wi th the engine RPM.
The dr ive pla te and clutch we ights are f ixed on the cr ankshaf t . while t he primary dri ve
sprocket rotates freely around the crankshaft.
At low speed. the clutch weights are not actuated so that the
crankshaft rotation is not transmitted to the primary drive sprocket.
As the speed increases. centrifugal force
causes the weights to move outward. overcoming the clutch spring force. to make contact with the primary
drive sprocket so that the power may be transmit ted to the secondary driven gear. (Fig.
In P- 50 the engine is started by pedaling.

Therefore, If the clutch fails to transmit the force produced
by pe daling to t he c r anksha f t . the engine will not start.
When t he pedal is depressed. t he pr imary drive sprocket starts rotating and causes the t hree steel balls
incorporated t herein to apply force against the friction plate which in turn makes contac t with the drive plate
{ the friction plate is restric t ed in the direction of rotation by the clu tch weights) so that the power is trans.

lubrication System
Cylinder Head
Oil from t he earn chain tension er rol ler and the cam chain is carrie d along the c rankcase r ibs to drop in to
the oil guide. from where it is fed to the cylinder head through the oil guide.
Oil enters the camshaft center pin and by centrifugal force is drawn into the spiral groove in the cen t er
pin to lubricate the cam surface as well as the rocker arm slipper surface.
After lubricating t he camshaft, oil passes through the cam cha1n chamber and flows back t o the crankcase.

Crankcase
Part of oil splashed by the oil splasher on t he connect ing rod large end reaches the cylinder and lubr ica tes
the piston and the piston pin; while the rest passes t hrough t he cored hole in the right crankcase to the right
crankcase cover, routed along the crankcase ribs into the rear wheel axle hole and lubricates the secondary
drive gear and the final driven gear.
The final drive shaft is lubricated by splashed oil coming through oil holes in the right crankcase and right
crankcase cover.
Even when the <Jmount of oil decreases and conseQuently the oil level in the crankcase drops, the oil
which comes through the cored hole in the right crankcase is picked up by the cam chain tensioner roller and
the cam chain and collected in the oil t ray so t hat t he oil level in t he oil tray is maintained the same to perform the proper lubrication.

Breather
The interior of the crankcase is continually under
var ying pressure, built up by the reciprocating piston.
in addition, the crankcase is filled with gases from the
blowby of t he piston and the gases produced by the
heat of the crankcase. For this reason, the decomposi t ion of the oil is hastened. Further it also increases t he possibility of oil leaks at the case par t ing
surfaces.
The breather is designed and incorporated in the
case to exhaus t the crankcase gases to the outside
and also to maintain a constan t pressure within the
crankcase. To comple te ly relieve the pressure from
the oil. it is dissipated through the labyrinth. (Fig. 3 - 70)

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT II
In order to maintain t he vehic le in safe and be st opera ting cond it ion, inspect ions and adjustments should
be properly performed.
There are two t ypes of inspect ion. namely. the daily inspection which is perform€.d by the owner before
starting the engine and the periodic inspection which is performed by the dealer in accordance wi th the estab·
lished schedule.
1.
DAILY INSPECTION
In performing the daily inspection, ask yourself t h e following questions and then check those specific items
to assure that the conditions are satisfactory.
( 1 ) Is the engine oil level correct? Check with the dipstick. Specified volume 0.7 C
( 2 ) Is there sufficient fuel for the trip ? Tank capacity 2 .5 C
( 3 ) Is the play of the f ront br al--e lever norrnal? It should be 10~ 1 5 mm ( 3/8~5/8 in) at t he end of
the lever.
( 4 ) Is the play of the rea r brake lever normal? It sl1ould be 10- 15 mm (3/ 8-5/ 8 in) at the end of
the lever.
( 5) Are all the main components properly fastened ? ( See page 57)
(6
Do t he head, tail and stop lights operate?
( 7 ' Does the horn have the proper loudness ?
( 8 ) Is the rear view mirror positioned correctly ?
( 9 ) Is th e front t ire air pressure normal ? 1.3 kg/ em·• (18.5 lbs /in~ ) standard
(10) Is the rear tire air pressure normal? 1.7kgj cm? ( 24 lbs, in~) standard
2.

Lubrication
lubricant i s r eQuired on the rotating or sliding sur-
faces of the moving par ts to prevent wear and possible
seizure due to t he heat produced by the f ric t ion. The
funct ion of the lubr icant is to provide a thin film o f oil
between the sur faces so t hat there ar e no direct sur face to sur face contac t.
This w ill pr event wear and
fr iction, th us, minimi zing the possibility of heat gener ation.
Insufficien t lubr icat ing oil or prolonged use of
dirty oil wil l not only r educe t he service life of the
mechanical components but also adversely affect the

Tappet Clearance Adjustment
Th'! tappet clearance will have a great deal of ef
feet on the valve timing. Further. if t11e c learance is
too small, it may prevent the v alve

pressure leak at the valve.
On the other
hand. an excessive tappet c learance will produce tappet
noise. causing noisy engine operation. The tappet clea·
ranee will also have a varying deg ree of e ffec t on the
engine power output and engine operation.

Ignit ion Timing Adjustment
An improper ignition timing, regardless or the ac -
curacy of the valve liming or the proper compression
pressure. will not produce a satisfactory engine per·
lormance.
Ignition timing out of adjustm ent will seri·
ously aflect engine power output as well as resulting
1n engine overheating and causing backfires.
Check the ignit ion timing in the follow ing monner.

Carbure tor Fu el Level Adjustment
It is difficult to direct ly measure the fuel level,
therefore, the fuel level is determined indirect ly by
measur ing the height ( H) of the f loa t.
1. Place the carbure tor in inver ted position
2. In this position. measure H (Old type 3 .5 mm: New
type 5.0mm) with a g auge. T he to lerance of the
float position is ± O.l mm ( 0.0040 in) . If the float
height is beyond the specified tolerance. make the
adjustment by bending the float arm.

Inspec tio n a nd Repair
If the cy linder head is not properly torQued. t he
head will warp or distort due to the high temperature and pressure to which it is exposed.
This
will result in improper sealing of the cylinder head
and cause troubles due to gas leak . air suction
and low compressio:l. (Fig. 2 l 0 )

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
:1
In order for a gasoline engine to operatt!, fuel
mi x ture must be ignited by one of several methods so
that the fuel mixture can be burned to produce useful
work.
The P 50 uti lizes A. C. ignit ion sys tem. employing
an A. C. generator and ignition c oil. In t his sys tem, the
A. C. current produced by the A. C. generator is inter·
rup ted to supply the primary voltage to the primary
co il of the externally mounted ignit ion coil where the
hig h voltage is induced for the ignition.
Fig. 3-1
Thi s sys t em
differs from the conventional ignition system where the
I gnition co li
D. C. curren t is supplied to the ignition coil.
The chart on the following page lists the electrical
system troubles and guides to corrective action.

I nspection of Spark C ha racteristic
The use of the A. C. ignition system makes it im·
perative that the inspection of the ignition coi l be
made by using the A. C. generetor.
1.
First, check to see that the high vo l tage is being
delivered to the spark plug. Ground the spark plug
on the engine as shown in Fig. 3 - 4 and perform the
starting process. If bluish white spark is seen jumping across the plug points, it is an 1nchcat1on that

the spark plug. ignition coil, flywhee l, A. C. generator
No ise suppressor cap
are in good condition.
If there are no sparks: one or more of the
components are defect i ve.
2.
T he pr imary co il may be checked fo r condition by
t he use of a lamp.
Connect a 6 V- 3 W bulb across the black lead
from the generator and the ground and start the
engine.
If the bulb does not light up, there is an
opening in the black lead or else the coil is defective.
However, if the t he bulb continues to stay
lit, the ignition coi l or the breaker point is defect ive. (Fig. 3 - 5 )
