(1O)Star-t engine and allow to idle for at least two minutes.
Then, with parking brake on, move selector
fever
momentarily to each position, ending in “N” Neutral
position.
(11)Add sufficient ATF to bring fluid level to lower mark.
Recheck fluid level after transaxle is at normal Operating
temperature. Fluid level should be between upper and lower marks of
“HOT” range, Insert dipstick fully to prevent dirt from
entering transaxle.

COOLANT (Change)MOOSEEAC
Check the cooling system parts, such as radiator, heater,
and oil cooler hoses, thermostat and connections for
leakage and damage.
CHANGE COOLANT
1. Remove the radiator cap.
2. Loosen the drain plug to drain the coolant.
3. Drain the coolant from the reserve tank.
4. After draining the coolant, tighten the drain plug securely.
5.Supply the coolant into the radiator until it is filled up to
its filler neck.
6. Supply the coolant into the reserve tank.
7. After warming the engine until the thermostat opens, remove the radiator cap and check the coolant level.
8.Supply the coolant into the radiator until it is filled up to
its filler neck, and install the radiator cap securely.
9.Fill the reserve tank with coolant up to the “FULL” line.

Check for fluid contamination and wear. Replace complete
set of pads if defective.
Caution
The pads for the right and left wheels should be
reDlaced at the same time. Never “split” or intermix
brkke pad sets.
All four pads must be replace as a complete set.
Thickness of lining (A)
Limit: 2.0 mm (.08 in.)
13.REAR DRUM BRAKE LININGS AND REAR
WHEEL CYLINDERS (Inspect for wear and
leaks)MOOSBGB
1. Remove the brake drum and check the thickness of brake shoe lining for wear. Check the automatic brake
adjusting system by hand to see if it operates smoothly.
Also see if the gears are in proper mesh with each
other. To assure smooth functioning, apply a very thin
coat of multipurpose grease to the friction surface of
adjuster and link shaft.

FRONT DISC BRAKE PAD CHECK AND REPLACE-
MENT 1990 models>M36FQAG
1. Check brake pad thickness through caliper body check port.
Limit: 2.0 mm
(.08 in.)
Caution
1.When the limit is exceeded, replace the pads at both
sides, and also the brake pads for the wheels on the
opposite side at the same time.
2.If there is a significant difference in the thicknesses
of the pads on the left and right sides, check the
sliding condition of the piston, lock pin sleeve and
guide pin sleeve.
2. Remove lock pin. Lift caliper assembly and retain with wires.
Caution
Do not wipe off the special grease that is on the lock
pin or allow it to contaminate the lock pin.
3. Remove the following parts from caliper support. (1) Shim holder
(2) Inner shim
(3) Pad assembly
(4) Outer shim
(5) Pad clips

4. Measure hub torque with pad removed to measure brake drag torque after pad installation.
NOTE
Tighten the nuts in order to secure the disc to the hub.

PadWea 5. Securely attach the pad clip to the caliper support.
6. Apply a coating of the specified grease to the pad, shim
and shim holder installation surfaces, and then install the
shim and shim holder.
Apply the grease so that the grease doesn’t ooze out from
the edges.
Specified grease: Brake grease SAE 5310,
NLGI No. 1
Caution
Do not deposit grease or other dirt on pad or brake disc
friction surfaces.
7.Be careful that the piston boot does not become caught,
when lowering the caliper assembly and install the lock pin.
8. Check brake drag torque as follows.
(1) Start engine and hold brake pedal down for 5 seconds.
(2) Stop engine.
(3) Turn brake disc forward IO times.
(4) Check brake drag torque with spring scale.
If the difference between brake drag torque and hub
torque exceeds the standard value, disassemble piston and clean the piston. Check for corrosion or worn piston
seal, and check the sliding condition of the lock pin sleeve
and guide pin sleeve.
Standard value: 70
N (15.4 Ibs.) or less

or less
FRONT DISC BRAKE PAD CHECK AND
REPLACEMENT Y35FaAH
NOTE
The brake pads have been equipped with wear indicators, so
that when the brake pad thickness reached 2 mm
(.08 in.), the
wear indicator touches the brake discs and produces a warning
squeaking sound.

Caution
Do not wipe off the special grease that is on the guide
pin or allow it to contaminate the guide pin.

4. With the pad removed, use a spring balance to measure
the rotation sliding resistance of the hub in the forward di-
rection.
NOTE
Tighten the nuts in order to secure the disc to the hub.
5.Securely attach the pad clip to the caliper support.
6.Clean piston and insert into cylinder with tool.
7. Be careful that the piston boot does not become caught, when lowering the caliper assembly and install the guide
pin.
8.Apply repair kit grease to both sides of the inner shims.
Specified grease: Brake grease SAE 5310,
NLGI No.1
Caution
1. Make sure that the friction surfaces of pads and
brake discs and free of grease and other contami-
nants.
2.The grease should never squeeze out from around
the shim.
9.Check the disc brake drag force as follows.
(1) Start the engine, and after depressing the brake pedal hard two or three times, stop the engine.
(2) Turn brake disc forward
10 times.
(3) Use a spring balance to measure the rotation sliding re- sistance of the hub in the forward direction.
