CONNECTING ROD BEARINGS
1) Mark bearing cap and connecting rod for location. Remove
connecting rod cap and bearing. Install replacement bearing.
2) Ensure reference marks on rod cap and connecting rod are
aligned. Check bearing clearance using Plastigage method. Ensure
connecting rod moves freely on crankshaft. Check connecting rod side
play. See CONNECTING RODS table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS at end of
article.
CRANKSHAFT END PLAY
If end play is not within specification, inspect thrust
bearings and crankshaft. Replace thrust bearing or crankshaft to
obtain correct end play. See CRANKSHAFT, MAIN & CONNECTING ROD
BEARINGS table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS at end of article.
ENGINE OILING
ENGINE LUBRICATION SYSTEM
Oil pressure is provided by a rotor-type pump driven by
crankshaft. Pressure relief valve is located in oil pump body.

DESCRIPTION
Slight variations exist among the manual A/C-heater systems
used. Either Sanden Scroll or Nippondenso 10-cylinder compressor is
used. Cycling of the compressor clutch is controlled by switches which
monitor temperatures and pressures.
Compressors will only operate within the normal operating
temperatures and pressures set for each model. An electric condenser
fan operates whenever A/C system is operating. System components used
vary depending upon model. Most systems include an A/C compressor
control unit, fan switch, evaporator, temperature sensor, high and low
(or dual) pressure switch, engine coolant temperature switch,
compressor, condenser, receiver-drier and various pipes and hoses.

system is in operation. This high pressure could rupture can
or fitting at safety can valve, resulting in damage and
personal injury.
CONNECTING LINES & FITTINGS
A new "O" ring should be used in all instances when
connecting lines and fittings (dip "O" ring in clean refrigeration oil
and make certain it is not twisted during installation). Always use
two wrenches to avoid twisting or distorting lines and fittings,
tighten coupling nuts securely.
PLACING SYSTEM IN OPERATION
After component replacement and/or system servicing has been
completed and all connections have been made, proceed as follows:
1) Evacuate the system using a vacuum pump.
2) Charge the system with new R-12 (refrigerant) according t\
o
each individual vehicle as outlined in the
GENERAL COOLING SYSTEM SERVICING article. Also see Refrigerant
Capacity in this Section.
3) Leak test the system, with particular attention to all new
connections and components.
4) Make a performance test of the system. Never assume that a
recharging has automatically corrected a problem.
COMPRESSOR REMOVAL INFORMATION - ISOLATION METHOD
On systems which have compressors equipped with stem-type
service valves (Tecumseh), it is possible to isolate the compressor
for removal.
Isolating
Turn both high and low pressure manual valves to extreme
clockwise (front seat) position. Loosen cap on high pressure manual
valve connection to compressor and allow gas to escape until
compressor is relieved of pressure.
COMPRESSOR REMOVAL INFORMATION - DISCHARGE METHOD
This procedure is to be used on vehicles which have
compressor equipped with Schrader service valves. In these cases, the
compressor cannot be isolated and the system must be discharged, using
approved refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment, prior to compressor
removal.

Rear axle features a rigid banjo-type housing with semi-
floating axle shafts. Differential consists of hypoid reduction gears
and straight bevel differential gears. Limited Slip Differential (LSD)\
is available on all models.

( 1) - If greaseable, grease joint. If problem persists or
joint is non-greaseable, require replacement.
( 2) - Cracked grease boot will allow contaminants to enter
the joint and will accelerate wear.
( 3) - Lack of grease boot will allow contaminants to enter
the joint and will accelerate wear.
( 4) - Torn grease boot will allow contaminants to enter the
joint and will accelerate wear.
( 5) - If manufacturer's procedures for inspection exist, use
those procedures; otherwise, use an approved inspection
method such as the dry park check.
CAUTION: DO NOT use pliers or pry bar to check ball and
socket movement. Use only moderate hand pressure.
( 6) - Excessive looseness is defined as being significant
enough to affect vehicle handling or structural
integrity.
( 7) - Check for damaged taper hole.
( 8) - Check for damaged stud.

SHOCK ABSORBERS, STRUT CARTRIDGES AND STRUT ASSEMBLIES
You are not required to replace shocks or struts in axle
sets. However, when replacing a shock or strut due to the conditions
that follow, you may suggest replacement of the other shock or strut
on the same axle for improved performance and preventive maintenance.
* Part is close to the end of its useful life
* To extend tire life
* To balance ride and handling
* To improve stopping distance
When replacing steering and/or suspension components which
may affect an alignment angle, you are required to check and adjust
alignment as needed. Refer to the OEM specifications.
Under no circumstances should a technician bend struts or
strut housings.
A vehicle's load-carrying and handling abilities are limited
by its suspension, tires, brakes, and driveline. Installing coil over
shocks or any other load assist device does not increase the vehicle's
load capacity. See the vehicle owner's manual for more details.
NOTE: If vehicle is equipped with original equipment coil over
shocks, apply the conditions for coil springs from the
SPRINGS - COIL, LEAF AND TORSION BAR section of the
STEERING AND SUSPENSION guidelines. If the vehicle is
equipped with add-on coil over shocks, you may suggest
replacing the shocks with standard shocks for any spring-
related condition.

DRAINING & REFILLING
NOTE: Although manufacturer recommends changing only fluid, the
oil filter/screen may also require replacement. If replacing
Page 1186 of 1333
Check transaxle/transmission and transfer case fluid level
every 30,000 miles. Change fluid at 30,000 miles if operated under
severe service conditions.
CHECKING FLUID LEVEL
TRANSAXLE/TRANSMISSION
Lubricant level is checked at fill hole on side of transaxle
or transmission. Lubricant must be at bottom of fill hole.
TRANSFER CASE
Transfer case contains separate drain and fill plugs.
Lubricant must reach to bottom of fill hole.
On 3000GT models, transfer case contains separate drain and
fill plugs. Lubricant should be .5" (13 mm) from bottom of fill hole.
RECOMMENDED FLUID
Use API GL-4 or GL-5 SAE 75W-85 gear oil.
