1C ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
If the engine exhibits low power, poor fuel economy,
or poor idle, check the following:
1. Compression
2. Fuel system (Refer to Section 4D)
COMPRESSION
1. Check that the battery is fully charged, Recharge
it if necessary.
76G01C-016
76G01C-017
2. Warm up the engine to the normal operating tem-
perature.
3. Turn it off for about 10 minutes to allow the exhaust
manifold to cool.
4. Remove all the fuel injection pipes, nozzles, wash-
ers, and corrugate washers.
5. Disconnect the fuel cut valve connector.
Caution
If this is not done, fuel will be injected from
the injection pump while cranking.
6. Connect a suitable cap to the fuel return pipe on
the injection pump.
7. Connect a compression gauge with SST to injec-
tion nozzle hole.
8. Fully depress the accelerator pedal and crank the
engine.
9. Note the maximum gauge reading.
10. Check each cylinder.
