** SAE 5W-30 may be used for operation in verycold weather areas where the lowest atmos-pheric temperature is below -23°C (-10°F).SELECTION OF LUBRICANTS
ENGINE OILEngine oil should be used which conform to the requirements
of the API classification “For Service SG” or “For Service
SGKD”, and have the proper SAE grade number for the
expected temperature range.
Caution
Nondetergent or straight mineral oil must never be used.
Energy Conserving OilIn order to improve fuel economy and conserve energy new,
lower friction engine oils have been developed. These oils are
readily available and can be identified by such labels as “Energy
Conserving
II”,“Energy Saving”,
“Improved Fuel Economy”,
etc.
Oil Identification Symbol
A standard symbol appears on the top of oil containers and has
three district areas for identifying various aspects of the oil.
The top portion will indicate the quality of the oil. The center
portion will show the SAE viscosity grade, such as SAEIOW-30. “Energy Conserving
II” shown in the lower portion,
indicates that the oil has fuel-saving capabilities.

1. Check for damage or leakage in the fuel lines and
connections and looseness of the fuel filler cap.
2.Inspect the surface of fuel hoses for heat and mechanical
damage. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, checking, tears,
cuts, abrasions and excessive swelling indicate deteriora-
tion of the rubber.
3.If the fabric casing of the rubber hose is exposed by cracks
and abrasions in the fuel system, the hoses should be

ENGINE - Service Adjustment Procedures11-15COMPRESSION PRESSURE CHECKMllFFAK
(1) Before checking compression, ensure that engine oil, the
starter motor, and battery are all in normal operating
condition.
(2) Start the engine and wait until engine coolant temperature
has risen to 80
- 95°C (176 - 205°F).
(3) Remove the all spark plugs.
(4) Crank the engine to remove any foreign objects in the
cylinders.
CautionCover the spark plug holes with shop towel, etc., in
order to keep expelled foreign objects from flying out,and keep away from the holes. When measuring
compression with water, oil, or fuel having entered the
cylinder through a crack, etc., these will come flying out
of the spark plug hole hot and fast, so be sure to take
the proper precautions.(5) Set the compression gauge to the spark plug hole.
(6) Holding the throttle valve full open, crank the engine and
measure compression.
Limit:
min. 980 kPa (139 psi)
min. 810 kPa (115 psi)(7) Perform (5) and (6) above for all the cylinders, ensuring that
compression pressure differential for each of the cylinders
is within the specified limit.
Limit: max.
100 kPa (14 psi)
(8) If a cylinder’s compression or pressure differential exceeds
the limit, add a small amount of oil through the spark plug
hole and repeat steps (5)
- (7).@If the addition of oil brings compression up, it is possible
that there is
harmf,uI friction between the piston ring
and cylinder wall.@If not compression up, valve seizure, poor valve seating,
or a compression leak from the gasket are all possible.

11-16ENGINE - Service Adjustment Procedures
MANIFOLD VACUUM INSPECTION
MllFNAR
(1) The vehicle should be repaired as follows before the
inspection.
lEngine coolant temperature: 80 - 95°C (176 - 205°F)‘dl Lights, electric cooling fan, and accessories: OFF
l Transaxle: Neutral
(P for A/T)l Steering wheel: neutral position
(2) Connect a tachometer. (Refer to P.l l-l 3.)
(3) Disconnect the vacuum hose from the nipple for taking off
fuel pressure regulator vacuum from the air intake plenum.
(4) Conncet a three-way joint between the removed vacuum
hose and the nipple and connect a vacuum gauge to the
joint.
(5) Start the engine and check that idle speed is within the
standard value range.
(6) Check the manifold vacuum.
Standard value:
*
Approx. 520 mmHg (20 in.Hg)
Approx. 495 mmHg (19 in.Hg)LASH ADJUSTERS CHECK
Ml 1 FEAFIf an abnormal noise is heard from the lash adjusters, check as
follows.
(1) After warming up the engine, stop it.
(2) While installed to the cylinder head, press the part where
the rocker arm contacts the lash adjuster at the very top. If
the adjuster is normal, the part pressed will feel very hard.
d
(3) If it easily moves all the way downward when pressed,
there is a malfunction of the lash adjuster and it should be
replaced with a new one.
(4) If it feels spongy or elastic, probably oil with air mixed in it
has entered the lash adjuster. Check whether the amount
of oil is too much or is not enough and the cause of air
becoming mixed into the oil is a damaged oil screen or oil
screen gasket.
(5) After repairing the cause of the air leak, warm up the engine
and then drive the vehicle at low speed for a while. Stop the
engine and leave it off for a few minutes; then restart the
engine and drive at low speed. Repeat this procedure
several times during the course of about one hour so as to
remove the air from the oil.
