3. DISCONNECTION OF FUEL HIGH PRESSURE HOSE
Caution
Cover the hose connection with rags to prevent splash
of fuel that could be caused by some residual pressure
in the fuel pipe line.
For information concerning the bleeding of the residual
pressure, refer to GROUP
13-On-Vehicle Inspection of
MFI
Components.
5. REMOVAL OF RADIATOR UPPER HOSE Make mating marks on the radiator hose and hose clamp,
and then disconnect the radiator hose.
28. REMOVAL OF ENGINE MOUNTING BRACKET
Jack up the vehicle after placing a wooden block between the jack and the engine’s oil pan.
Caution
Jack up carefully, so as not to apply an excessive
load to the various parts.
Remove the engine mount bracket.
32. REMOVAL OF CAMSHAFT SPROCKET
(1) Rotate the crankshaft and align the timing mark.
(2) Remove the camshaft sprocket (with the timing belt attached), and place on the timing belt front lower cover.
Caution
After removing the camshaft sprocket, be sure not
to rotate the crankshaft.

shown in two or three steps.
5. INSTALLATION OF RADIATOR UPPER HOSE
Align the mating marks (of the radiator hose and hoseclamp), and then, while applying force in the direction of
the arrow in the illustration, seat the hose clamp to the
trace marks (on the hose) remaining from the prior connection.
Caution Be sure to install the hose clamp at the trace marks (on
the hose) remaining from the prior connection.
3. CONNECTION OF FUEL HIGH PRESSURE HOSE
When connecting the high-pressure fuel hose to the fuel rail, apply a coating of engine oil to the hose union, and in-
sert so that the O-ring is not damaged.

(11)Check that there is continuity between the closed throttle
position switch terminal and body.
NOTE
When there is continuity, a clearance will be created between the throttle lever and dash pot rod when the dash
pot rod is pressed lightly.
(12) When there is no continuity, lower the engine speed when the dash pot begins operation to within the standard value
tolerance. Make sure to create continuity between the
closed throttle position switch terminal and body.
COMPRESSION PRESSURE CHECK Ml 1 FFAL
(1) Before inspection, verify that the engine oil, starter motor
and battery are normal. Then, perform the following.
lEngine coolant temperature: 80- 95°C
(1 76- 205’F)
l Lights, electnc
cooling fan and accessories: OFF
0 Transaxle: P range 0 Steering wheel: Neutral position
(2) Disconnect the spark plug cable.
(3) Remove all the spark plugs.
(4) Disconnect the connector of the crankshaft position sensor.
NOTE
This will prevent the engine control module from controll- ing the ignition and fuel injection.
(5) Cover the spark plug holes with a cloth, etc., and crank the engine. Then verify that no foreign material sticks to the
cloth, etc.
Caution
1.During cranking, be especially careful of the spark plug
installing hole.
2. Very hot water, oil, fuel, etc., which may have entered
the cylinder somehow, will violently spout through the
spark plug hole if the compression is measured in the
entrapped state. This is
vex/ dangerous.
(6) Set up the compression gauge in the spark plug mounting
hole.
(7) Fully open the throttle valve, and cranking the engine.

(9) If a cylinder’s compression pressure or pressure differenceis outside the limit, fill a small amount of engine oil through
the spark plug hole and repeat Items (7) and (8) above.
@ If the compression is increased when the oil is filled, the piston
and/or cylinder wall may be worn or
damaged.
@ If the compression is not Increased even though the oil is filled, the valve may be thermally seized, the valve
contact may be improper or pressure may leak at the
gasket. (10)Connect the connector of the crankshaft position sensor.
(1l)lnstall
the spark plug and spark plug cable.
(12)Erase the diagnostic trouble code with the scan tool or re-
connect the battery (-)
cable 10 seconds or more after it
was disconnected.
NOTE
This will erase the memory of the diagnostic trouble code which resulted from disconnection of the crankshaft posi-
tion sensor connector.
MANIFOLD VACUUM INSPECTION MllFNAD
(1) Before inspection and adjustment, put the vehicle into the following state.
l Engine coolant temperature:
85-95°C (185-205°F)
l Lights, motor cooling fan, and accessories: OFF
l Transaxle:
N (Neutral)
l Steering wheel: Neutral
(2) Check that the idling revolution speed is normal.
(3) Remove the PCV hose from the PCV valve and attach a
vacuum gauge.
(4) Check that the negative pressure at the intake manifold
during idle revolution is normal.
Standard value: Approx. 500 mmHg
(20 in.Hg)
(5) If outside the standard value, isolate the cause by referring to the following table and repair the fault.
