MlBKBAQ9. 13. REMOVAL OF EYE BOLT
Remove the eye bolt while holding the fuel filter nut
\securely.
Caution
Cover the hose connection with rags to prevent splash
of fuel that could be caused by some residual pressurein the fuel pipe line.
INSPECTION
MIBKCAJ
lCheck the hoses and pipes for cracks, bend, deformation
and clogging.
l Check the canister for clogging.
l Check the fuel filter for clogging and damage.
SERVICE POINTS OF INSTALLATION
MlSKDAU17.5. INSTALLATION OF FUEL VAPOR HOSE
/ 8. FUEL
RETURN HOSE
(1) If the fuel pipe has a stepped part, connect the fuel
hose to the pipe securely, up to the stepped part, as
shown in the illustration.
Iti(2) If the fuel pipe does not have a stepped part, connect
the fuel hose to the pipe securely, so that it is the
standard value.
Standard value: 25
- 30 mm (1.0 - 1.2 in.)
15. INSTALLATION OF HIGH PRESSURE FUEL HOSEApply engine oil to the hose union.
Insert the hose, being careful not to damage the O-ring, and
tighten securely.
CautionBecause there is high pressure applied between the
fuel pump and the injection mixer, be especially sure
that there is no fuel leakage in this area.
12. INSTALLATION OF FUEL FILTER(1) When installing the fuel filter, first temporarily install the
filter to the filter bracket; then insert the main pipe at
the connector part of the high pressure fuel pipe, and
manually screw in the main pipe’s flare nut.
(2) Holding the fuel filter nut, tighten the fuel main pipe’s
flare nut and eye bolt at the specified torque. Then
tighten the filter to the bracket.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
M13FBCKIACCELERATOR CABLE INSPECTION AND
a ’ADJUSTMENT
For models equipped with the cruise control system, refer to
P. 13-l 58.(1) Turn air conditioner and lights OFF.
Inspect and adjust at no load.
(2) Warm engine until stabilized at idle.
(3) Confirm idle speed is at prescribed rpm.
(4) Stop engine (ignition switch OFF).
(5) Confirm there are no sharp bends in accelerator cable.
(6) Check inner cable for correct slack.
(7) If there is too ‘much slack or no slack, adjust play by the
following procedures.@ Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (without
starting the engine) and leave in that condition for
approximately 15 seconds.@Loosen the adjusting bolts on the air intake plenum, and
then secure the outer cable so that the free play of
th,einner cable will be the standard value.
Standard value:
1 - 2 mm (.04 - .08 in.)3-5 mm
(.12-.20 in.)
NOTE
\JIf there is excessive play of the accelerator cable, the
vehicle speed drop (“undershoot”) when climbing a slope
will be large.
If there is no play (excessive tension) of the accelerator
cable, the idling speed will increase.
(8) After adjusting, confirm that throttle valve fully opens and
closes by operating pedal.
(9) Adjust accelerator cable play and confirm throttle lever
stopper touches the fixed SAS.
ACCELERATOR SWITCH INSPECTION AND
A
nADJUSTMENTMlBFlBC
09FO117Make sure that when the accelerator pedal is free, there is
;$ustingcontinuity between the terminals of the accelerator switch and
/that when the pedal is pressed until the indicated pedal stroke
A reaches the standard value, there is no continuity between
the terminals of the switch.
Standard value:Accelerator switch switching point
2 - 6 mm (.079 - .24 in.)If stroke A is out of specification, adjust with adjusting bolt.

enter the “ON” state.
l Check whether the output of the auto
compressor control unit is available.
NOTEFor troubleshooting of the air conditioner
control unit, refer to GROUP 55.
(2) The A/C compressor magnet clutch enters
the “ON” state.
l Check the resistor.
Fan Operating Model Check the radiator fan motor relay (LO)
and condenser fan motor relay (LO).
l Check the therm0 sensor (for radiator
fan).
(3) The radiator fan does not rotate when the ailconditioner switch is turned ON.
l Check the radiator fan motor control

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
ENGINE COOLANT LEAK CHECKMl4FAAF
1. Loosen cap.
2.Confirm that the engine coolant level is up to the filler neck.
3.Install an adapter to the water outlet fitting and apply 160
kPa (23 psi) pressure. Hold pressure for two minutes, while
checking for leakage from the radiator, hose or connec-
tions.
CautionBe sure to completely clean away any moisture from
the places checked.
When the tester is removed, be careful not to spill anyengine coolant from it.
Be careful, when installing and removing the tester andwhen testing, not to deform the water outlet fitting.
4. If there is leakage, repair or replace the appropriate part.
CAP PRESSURE TESTM14FBAH1. Use a special tool to attach the cap to the tester.
2.Increase the pressure until the indicator of the gauge stops
moving.
Limit: 65
kPa (9.2 psi)
Standard value: 75
- 105 kPa (11 - 15 psi)
3:Replace the cap if the reading does not remain at or above
the limit.
NOTEBe sure that the cap is clean before testing, since rust or
other foreign material on the cap seal will cause an
improper indication.
