PRECAUTION
1. Do not stop the engine immediately after pulling a trailer
or after high speed or uphill driving. Idle the engine for
20±120 seconds, depending on how hard the vehicle has
been driven.
2. Avoid sudden acceleration or racing immediately after
starting a cold engine.
3. Do not run the engine with air cleaner removed, as this
may cause foreign material to enter and damage the
impeller wheel operating at high speed.
4. If a turbocharger is found to be defective and must be
replaced, check for the cause, and repair or replace the
following items as necessary:
wEngine oil level and quality
wConditions under which the turbocharger was used
wOil lines leading to the turbocharger
5. Use caution when removing and reinstalling the
turbocharger assembly. Do not drop it or knock it against
anything or grasp it by easily±deformed parts, such as
the actuator or rod, when moving it.
6. Use caution when removing and reinstalling the exhaust
gas control valve assembly. Do not drop it or knock it
against anything or grasp it by easily±deformed parts,
such as the actuator or rod, when moving it. The control
valve is ceramic.
7. Before removing the turbocharger, plug the intake and
exhaust ports and oil inlet to prevent entry of dirt or other
foreign material.
8. If replacing the turbocharger, check for accumulation of
sludge particles in the oil pipes, and if necessary,
replace the oil pipes.
9. Completely remove the gasket adhered to the lubrication
oil pipe flange and turbocharger oil flange.
10. Whe n re pla c ing bolt or nuts , us e only authorize d
replacement parts to prevent breakage or deformation.
11. If replacing the turbocharger, pour approx. 20 cm
3 (1.2 cu
in.) of fresh oil into the turbocharger oil inlet and turn the
impeller wheel by hand to spread oil to the bearing.
12. If overhauling or replacing the engine, cut the fuel supply
after reassembly and crank the engine for 30 seconds to
distribute oil throughout the engine. Then allow the
engine to idle for 60 seconds.

wRemove the turbine elbow from the turbochar-
ger and check for excessive carbon deposits on
the turbine wheel. Excessive carbon deposits in-
dicate a faulty turbocharger.

wCheck for axial and radial play of turbine shaft
and replace the turbocharger if necessary.
(See page EG±158)
Maximum axial play : 0.110 mm (0.0045 in.)

PCV is normal.
Do not mistake it for an oil leak from the
turbocharger.

INSPECTION
Turbochargers
1. INSPECT TURBINE SHAFT ROTATION
Grasp the edge of the turbine wheel and turn it. Check that
the impeller wheel turns smoothly.
If the impeller wheel does not turn or if it turns with a drag, re-
place the turbocharger assembly.
2. INSPECT AXIAL PLAY OF TURBINE SHAFT
(a) Using a dial indicator, insert the needle of the dial indicator
into the air tube side.
(b) Move the turbine shaft in an axial direction, measure the axial
play of the turbine shaft.
Maximum axial play:
0.110 mm (0.0045 in.)
If the axial play is greater than maximum, replace the turbo-
charger assembly.
3. INSPECT RADIAL PLAY OF TURBINE SHAFT
(a) Using a dial indicator, insert the needle of the dial indicator
into the oil outlet hole and set it in the center of the turbine
shaft.
(b) Move the turbine shaft in a radial direction, measure the
radial play of the turbine shaft.
Maximum radial play:
0.162 mm (0.0064 in.)
If the axial play is greater than maximum, replace the turbo-
charger assembly.
4. INSPECT WASTE GATE VALVE OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the actuator air hose from the housing, and plug
the hose end.
(b) Using SST, apply approx. 120 kPa (1.22 kgf/cm
2, 17.4 psi) of
pressure to the actuator.
SST 09992±00241
(c) Move the actuator push rod, and check that the waste gate
valve is open.
If operation is not as specified, replace the No.1 turbocharger
assembly.
NOTICE: Never apply more than 187 kPa (1.91 kgf/cm2, 27.2
psi) of pressure to the actuator.
(d) Reconnect the actuator air hose to the housing. EG±158

BASIC INSPECTION
In many cases, by carrying out the basic engine check shown in the following flow chart, the location causing
the problem can be found quickly and efficiently. Therefore, use of this check is essential in engine troubleshoot-
ing.
If there is a problem, and a normal code is displayed, proceed to the matrix chart of problem symptoms on page
EG±514. Make sure that every likely cause of the problem is checked.
Is battery positive voltage 11 V or more when engine is stopped?
Is engine cranked?
Does engine start?
Check air filter.
Charge or replace battery.
Proceed to matrix chart of problem symptom
on page EG±514.
Repair or replace.
Remove air filter.
Visually check that the air filter is not excessively
dirty or oily.
If necessary, clean the air filter with compressed
air. First blow from inside thoroughly, then blow
from outside of the air filter.
Charge or replace battery.
Is battery positive voltage 11 V or more when engine is stopped?

Check idle speed.
Proceed to matrix chart of problem symp-
toms on page EG±514.
(1) Shift transmission into ªNº position.
(2) Warm up engine to normal operating tempera±
ture.
(3) Switch OFF all accessories.
(4) Switch OFF air conditioning.
(5) Connect tachometer test probe to terminal
IG of data link connector 1.
Check Idle speed.
Idle speed: 650 50 rpm
Never allow tachometer test probe to touch
ground as it could result in damage to igniter
and/or ignition coil.
As some tachometers are not compatible
with this ignition system, we recommended
that you confirm the compatibility of your
unit before use.
Check ignition timing.
(1) Shift transmission into ªNº position.
(2) Warm up engine to normal operating tempera±
ture.
(3) Keep the engine speed at idle.
(4) Using SST, connect terminals TE1 and E1 of
data link connector 1.
SST 09843±18020
(5) Connect a timing light clip to the check wire.
(See page EG±20)
Check ignition timing.

(2) Turn ignition switch ON.
(3) Using SST, connect terminals FP and +B of
data link connector 1.
SST 09843±18020
Check that there is pressure in the hose from the fuel
filter.
If there is fuel pressure, you will hear the sound of fuel
flowing.
Never make a mistake with the terminal con-
nection position as this will cause a malfunc-
tion.
Check for spark.
Proceed to page IG±21 and continue to trou-
bleshoot.
Proceed to matrix chart of problem symptoms
on page EG±514.
(1) Remove ignition coil (See page IG±26)
(2) Remove spark plug.
(3) Install the spark plug to the ignition coil, and connect
the ignition coil connector.
(4) Ground the spark plug.
Check if spark occurs while engine is being cranked.
To prevent excess fuel being injected from the injectors
during this test, don't crank the engine for more than 1
Ð 2 seconds at a time.
