TEST OF WASTE GATE ACTUATOR OPERATIONNllLlAA
Using a tester, apply a pressure to the actuator and make surethat the
rod moves.Standard value:
M/T76.7
kPa (11.1 psi)
A/T72.0
kPa (10.4 psi)
CautionDo not apply a pressure of more than 85.3
kPa (12.4 psi) to
the actuator. Otherwise, diaphragm may be damaged.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
REAR WHEEL ALIGNMENT INSPECTIONN17FAAC
The rear suspension assembly must be free of worn, loosen or
damaged parts prior to measurement of rear wheel alignment.
Standard value:
Toe-in (Left-right difference)
Of3 mm (Of.118 in.)
Camber-45’ + 30’
NOTEThe rear wheel alignment is set at the factory and cannot be
adjusted.If toe-in or camber is not within the standard value, replace
bent or damaged parts.
WHEEL BEARING END PLAY ADJUSTMENT,7FBA0
1.Inspect the play of the bearings while the vehicle is jacked
up and resting on floor jack.
2.Remove the hub cap and then release the parking brake.
3. Remove the caliper assembly and the brake disc.
4. Check the bearing’s end play.
Place a dial gauge against the hub surface; then move the
hub in the axial direction and check whether or not there isend play.
Limit: 0.01 mm
(.004 in.) or less
NOTE12AO531If the limit value is exceeded, the lock nut should be

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
REAR WHEEL ALIGNMENT INSPECTIONN17FDAB is.Measure the wheel alignment with the vehicle parked on level
--’
ground.The rear suspension and wheels should be inspected for
wear’or damage and repaired prior to measurement of wheel,
alignment.
TOE-IN
(1) Measure the toe-in with a toe-in gauge.
Standard value:
3.6f3 mm (.14+ .I18 in.)
(2) If the toe-in is not within the standard value, adjust it by
moving the mounting bolts located on the crossmember
side of the trailing arm.
NOTEMake the adjustment by moving the left and the right bolts
r;hr
equally.Movement of one division on the scale will cause toe-in
variation of about 2 mm
(.08 in.).
CAMBER
(1) Measure the camber with a camber/caster/kingpin gauge.
Standard value:
-1”33’f30’(2) If the camber is not within the standard value, adjust it by
moving the mounting bolt located on the crossmember
side of the upper arm.
NOTEMovement of one division on the scale will cause camber
variation of about 15’.
Caution
1. As toe-in will vary 0.9 mm
(.035 in.) for every
camber scale adjustment, adjust the toe after
adjusting camber.
2. The difference between the left and the right
camber shall be less than 15’.
