ENGINE OIL
Inspection
1. Be sure the vehicle is on level ground.
2. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature and
stop it.
3. Wait for 5 minutes.
4. Remove the oil level gauge and check the oil level and con-
dition.
5. Add or replace oil if necessary.
Note
l The distance between the L and F marks on the level
gauge represents 0.8 liter (0.85 US qt, 0.70 Imp qt).
ENGINE COOLANT
Inspection
Coolant level (engine cold)
Warning
l Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is
hot.
l Wrap a thick cloth around the cap when removing it.
1. Verify that the coolant level is near the radiator filler neck.
2. Remove the coolant level gauge and check the coolant level.
3. Add coolant if necessary.
Coolant quality
1. Verify that there is no buildup of rust or scale around the
radiator cap or radiator filler neck.
2. Verify that the coolant is free of oil.
3. Replace the coolant if necessary.
DRIVE BELT
Inspection
1. Check the drive belts for wear, cracks, and fraying. Replace
if necessary.
2. Verify that the drive belts are correctly mounted on the
pulleys.

3. Check the drive belt deflection by applying moderate pres-
sure (98 N,

Note
l Measure the belt deflection between the specified
pulleys.
l A belt is considered “New” if it has been used on
a running engine for less than five minutes.
Set the deflection specified below accordingly.
l Check the belt deflectlon when the engine is cold,
or at least 30 minutes after the engine has stopped.

(1) Loosen the alternator mounting bolt @ and adjusting
lock bolt @.
(2) Lever the alternator outward and apply tension to the
belt.
(3) Tighten adjusting lock bolt @I.

Oil leakage in oil passage
Oil leakage in HLA
Insufficient oil pressure
Faulty HLA
Incorrect oil amount
Deteriorated oil Action Run engine 2000-3000 rpm.
If noise stops after 2 second-10
minutes(*), HLA is normal.
If not, replace HLA.
* Time required for engine oil to circu-
late within engine, includes tolerance
for engine oil condition and ambient
temperature.
Check oil pressure.
If lower than specification, check for
cause. Oil pressure; 294-392 kPa
(3.0-4.0 kg/cm’, 43-57 psi)-3000 rpm
(Refer to page 82-60)
Press down HLA by hand.
If it does not move, HLA is normal.
If it moves, replace HLA.
Measure valve clearance.
If more than Omm (0 in), replace HLA.
Check oil level.
Drain or add oil as necessary.
Check oil quality.
If deteriorated, replace with specified
type and amount of oil.

Idle Speed
1. Perform “Preparation”. (Refer to page BZ-8.)
2. Apply parking brake.
3. Check that the idle speed is within specification.
Idle speed (Neutral or P range): 750 f 50 rpm
Caution
l Check the idle speed without the electric cooling
fan operating.
Note
l When the parking brake is not applied, the idle
speed for ATX model (Canada) is approx. 800 rpm.
4. If not within the specification, adjust the idle by turning the
air adjusting screw.
5. Disconnect the
SST.

B2 COMPRESSION
COMPRESSION
If the engine exhibits low power, poor fuel economy, or poor idle, check the following:
1, Ignition system (Refer to Section G.)
2. Compression
3. Fuel system (Refer to Section F.)

INSPECTION
1. Check that the battery is fully charged. Recharge it if neces-
sary. (Refer to Section G.)
2. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.
3. Turn the engine OFF.
4. Remove all spark plugs.
5, Disconnect the ignition coil connector.
6. Connect a compression gauge to the No.1 spark plug hole.
7. Fully depress the accelerator pedal and crank the engine.
8. Record the maximum gauge reading.
9. Check each cylinder.
Compression:
1,256 kPa (12.6 kg/cm’, 182 psi)-300 rpm
Minimum:
883 kPa (9.0 kg/cm2, 128 psi)-300 rpm
Max. difference between cylinders:
196 kPa (2.0 kg/cm2, 28 psi)
10. If the compression in one or more cylinders is low, pour a
small amount of engine oil into the cylinder and recheck
the compression.
(1) If the compression increases, the piston, piston rings,
or cylinder wall may be worn.
(2) If the compression stays low, the valve may be stuck
or seating improperly.
(3) If the compression in adjacent cylinders stays low, the
cylinder head gasket may be defective or the cylinder
head distorted.
Il. Connect the ignition coil connector.
12. Install the spark plugs.
