DESCRIP-
l Fuel economy unsatisfactory TION
[TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS]
While fuel consumption is drastically increased by city driving, short-run operation, stop and go driving, extended winter
warm-up periods, etc., as opposed to “trip” mileage, an attempt should be made to determine these factors when con-
fronted with “poor mileage” conditions. However, since the operator is not always at fault, the following is offered.
@II Operator depressing accelerator more than usual due to
@ Air/Fuel mixture too rich
low engine power
l Poor ignition *High fuel line pressure
@ Alcohol blended fuel used
*Low intake air amount
l Electronic spark advance control system malfunction @ High vehicle load l Low tire pressure
*Clutch slipping/ATX slipping l Incorrect tire size l Exhaust component restricted l Brake dragging ;TEP

Caution
l Do not start the engine.
l Jack up the front of the vehicle.
1. Check the fluid level. (Refer to page N-27.)
2. Turn the steering wheel fully to the left and right several times
with the engine not running.
3. Recheck the fluid level. If the level has lowered, add fluid.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the fluid level stabilizes.
5. Start the engine and let it idle.
6. Turn the steering wheel fully to the left and right several
times.
7. Check that the fluid is not foamy and that the fluid level has
not dropped.
8. Add fluid if necessary and repeat steps 6 and 7.
STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN
Inspection (On-vehicle)
Steering wheel effort
1. With the vehicle on a hard, level surface, put the wheels
in the straight-ahead position.
2. Start the engine and warm the power steering fluid to
50-60°C
(122-14OOF) by turning the steering: wheel fully
left and right several times.
3. With the engine running at idle speed, attach a pull scale
to the outermost point of the steering wheel spoke. Then,
starting with the wheels in the straight-ahead position, check
the steering effort required to turn the steering wheel to the
left and to the right.
4. If the measured effort exceeds specification, check the fol-
lowing: fluid level, air in system, fluid leakage at hose or con-
nections, function of P/S oil pump and gearbox, and tire
pressures.
Steering wheel effort: 29 N (3.0 kg, 6.6 lb) or less 03UONX-033
