lVisually check the turbine wheel and the compressor wheel
for cracking or other damage.
l Check whether the turbine wheel and the compressor
wheel can be
easily.turned by hand.
l Check for oil leakage from the turbocharger assembly.
lCheck whether or not the waste gate valve remains open. If
any problem is found, replace the part after disassembly.
OIL PIPE AND OIL-RETURN PIPE CHECKCheck the oil pipe and oil-return pipe for clogging, bending, or
other damage.
If there is clogging, clean it.
SERVICE POINTS OF INSTALLATIONMlBLDAF
23. INSTALLATION OF TURBOCHARGER ASSEMBLYClean the alignment surfaces shown in the illustration.
CautionWhen cleaning, care must be taken so that a piece of
the gasket does not enter the oil passage hole.
14. INSTALLATION OF OIL PIPESupply clean engine oil through the oil pipe installation hole
of the turbocharger assembly.

TIONM171ABG(1) After disconnecting the ventilation hose from the positive
crankcase ventilation valve, disconnect the positive crank-
case ventilation valve from the rocker cover, and reconnect
the positive crankcase ventilation valve to the ventilation
hose.
(2) Idle engine, put finger on the opening end of the positive
crankcase ventilation valve, and check that the negative
pressure of the intake manifold is felt with finger.
NOTEAt this time, the plunger in the positive crankcase ventila-
tion valve moves back and forth.
(3) If negative pressure is not felt, clean or replace the positive
crankcase ventilation valve.
POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION VALVEMl7lACC
INSPECTION
(1) Remove the positive crankcase ventilation valve.
(2) Insert a thin stick into the positive crankcase ventilation
valve from the threaded side to check that the plunger
moves.
(3) If the plunger does not move, the positive crankcase
ventilation valve is clogged. Clean it or replace.
INSTALLATIONInstall the positive crankcase ventilation valve and tighten to
specified torque.
