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
MlBGCAMl Check the hoses and the pipes for crack or damage.
l Check the fuel tank cap for malfunction.
l Check the fuel tank for deformation, corrosion or crack.
l Check the fuel tank for dust or foreign material.
NOTEIf the inside of the fuel tank is to be cleaned, use any one of
the following:
(1) Kerosene
(2) Trichloroethylene
(3) A neutral emulsion type detergent
OVERFILL LIMITER (TWO-WAY VALVE)Connect a clean rubber hose to the overfill limiter and check for
operation.

(1) If the pipe has a stepped part, connect the vapor hose
to the pipe securely, up to the stepped part, as shown in
the illustration.

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.

A
nADJUSTMENTMlBFlBC

;$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.
