COOLANT
INSPECTION
Coolant Level (Engine cold)
1. Check that the coolant level is near the radiator inlet
port.
2. Check that the coolant level in the coolant reser-
voir is between the FULL and LOW marks.
Add coolant if necessary.
Warning
a) Never remove the radiator cap while the en-
gine is hot.
b)Wrap a thick cloth around the cap when
removing it.
Coolant Quality
1. Check that there is no build-up of rust or scales
around the radiator cap or radiator filler neck.
2. Check that coolant is free from oil.
3. Replace the coolant, if necessary.
Coolant Leakage
1. Connect a tester and SST to the radiator inlet port.
2. Apply 103 kPa (1.05 kg/cm2, 15 psi) pressure
to the system.
3. Check that the pressure is held.
If not, check for coolant leakage.
Warning
When removing either the radiator cap or the
tester, loosen it slowly until the pressure in
the radiator is released, and then remove it.
86U03X-005
REPLACEMENT
1. Remove the radiator cap and loosen the drain plug.
2. Drain the coolant into a suitable container.
Warning
a) Never open the radiator cap while the en-
gine is hot.
b)Wrap a thick cloth around the cap when
loosening.
c) Use caution when draining hot coolant.

gauge unit connector.
3. Disconnect the fuel main and return hoses.
4. Raise the vehicle and support it with safety stands.
5. Remove the fuel level gauge unit assembly.
Warning
a) When repairing the fuel tank, clean it
thoroughly with steam to remove all explo-
sive gasoline and fumes.
b) Use of fire is strictly prohibited while work-
ing on the fuel tank.
6. Drain the fuel.
7. Disconnect the remaining hoses.
8. Remove the fuel tank.
Inspection
1. Check the fuel tank for cracks and corrosion.

EGR SYSTEM 4A
TROUBLESHOOTING
Note
Make the system inspection first. If no problem is found, continue with the next inspec-
tion of the Troubleshooting Guide. (Refer to pages 4A—22.)

76G04A-123
76G04A-124
76G04A-125
System Inspection
1. Start the engine.
2. Accelerate the engine while it is still cold and check
that the diaphragm of the EGR control valve does
not move.
3. Warm up the engine to normal operating temper-
ature and run it at idle.
Warning
Be careful when checking the EGR control
valve, the surrounding area is very hot.
4. Accelerate the engine and check that the di-
aphragm of the EGR control valve moves.
EGR Control Valve (ATX)
(No. 1)
1. Manually actuate the valves by pushing on the di-
aphragm with finger.
2. Check that the spring resistance is present and the
diaphragm moves freely with no sticking or
binding.
3. Warm up the engine and run it at idle.
4. Connect a vacuum pump to the valve and apply
vacuum.
5. Check that the engine runs roughly or stalls at more
than the specified vacuum.
Specification:
70—90 mmHg (2.8—3.5 inHg)
6. If not correct, replace the EGR control valve.

How to Connect Multi-Pressure Tester
Warning
Before connecting the SST, release the fuel
pressure from the fuel system to reduce the
possibility of injury or fire. (Refer to page
4B—45.)
1. Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
2. Disconnect the fuel main hose from the fuel filter.
3. Connect the SST between the fuel main hose and
fuel pump with the adapter.
Caution
Do not reverse the adapter connection.
4. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the pressure
regulator control solenoid valve. Connect the SST
vacuum hose with a three-way joint.
5. Connect the negative battery terminal.
6. Connect the SST to the battery.

Caution
After checking for fuel leakage, turn the igni-
tion switch OFF and disconnect the jumper
wire from the test connector.

FUEL SYSTEM 4B
INJECTOR
On-vehicle Inspection
If engine runs
1. Warm up the engine and run it at idle.
2. Listen for operational sound of the injector with a
screwdriver or a sound scope.
3. If no operational sound is heard, check the main
relay and injector resistance.
76G04B-066
4. Disconnect the connector from each injector
respectively.
5. Check that the engine speed decreases about
100—200 rpm each time.
6. If not correct, check the injector resistance and in-
jection volume of the injector.
76G04B-067
Inspection
There are 3 inspections which must be performed for
the injectors.
Resistance
1. Remove the injectors from the engine. (Refer to
page 4B—58.)
2. Check the resistance of each injector with an
ohmmeter.
3. If not correct, replace the injector.
Resistance: 12—16 ft

76G04B-069
Fuel leakage test and volume test
1. Lift the dynamic chamber upward.
2. Remove the injectors and delivery pipe. (Refer to
pages 4B—58 and 59.)
3. Affix the injectors, pressure regulator, and pulsa-
tion damper to the delivery pipe with wire.
Caution
Affix the injectors firmly to the delivery pipe
so that no movement of the injectors is
possible.
Warning
Be extremely careful when working with fuel.
Always work away from sparks or open
flames.
