BASIC INSPECTION
Engine Oil
1. Remove the engine oil level gauge and check the engine
oil level and oil condition.
2. Add or change the oil as necessary.
Coolant
Warning
l Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is
hot.
l Wrap a thick cloth around the cap before carefully
removing it.
1. Remove the coolant level gauge from the coolant reservoir.
2. Check that the coolant level is between the L and F marks
of the gauge.
3. Add coolant if necessary.
Battery
1. Check for corrosion on the terminals and for loose cable
connections. If necessary, clean the clamps and tighten
them firmly.
2. Check that the electrolyte level is between the UPPER LEV-
EL and LOWER LEVEL marks.
3. Add distilled water if necessary.
4. Check the specific gravity with a hydrometer.
Gravity: 1.27-l .29 (at 20% [68OF] )

PRE-INSPECTION
1. Check the tire inflations and set to the recommended pressure, if necessary.
2. Inspect the front wheel bearing play; replace the bearing if necessary.
3. inspect the wheel and tire runout.
4. Inspect the ball joints and steering linkage for any excessive looseness.
5. The vehicle must be on level ground and have no luggage or passenger load.
6. The difference in height between the left and right sides from the center of the wheel to the fender brim
must not exceed
10mm (0.39 in).
7. Shake the vehicle to check operation of the shock absorbers.
