To determine weak or noisy lifter, position camshaft lobe
high point upward. Using a piece of wood, push lifter down. See
Fig. 2. If lifter moves down more than .004" (.10 mm), replace lifter.
If lifter moves less than .004" (.10 mm), lifter is okay. Repeat
procedure for remaining lifters.
CAUTION: If lifter is replaced, allow 30 minutes for lifter to bleed
down before starting engine.Fig. 2: Measuring Lifter Clearance

DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM
WARNING: System voltage is retained for about 20 MINUTES after system
is deactivated. Wait about 20 MINUTES after system is
disabled before servicing, as air bag may accidentally
deploy, causing personal injury.
Disabling & Activating System
To disable system, disconnect negative battery cable. Wait 20
MINUTES before working on vehicle. To activate system, reconnect
negative battery cable. Verify system is functioning properly. See
SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK.
CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, radio will go into anti-theft
protection mode. Obtain radio anti-theft protection code
from owner prior to servicing vehicle.
DESCRIPTION
The air conditioning system is a cycling clutch type.
Compressor is cycled on and off by a thermostatic switch to maintain
constant cooling rate. System components include evaporator, expansion
valve, receiver-drier, control panel and condenser. A dual-pressure
switch includes a high-pressure cut-out switch and a low-pressure cut-
out switch.
Control panel includes 3 rotary knobs over 2 push buttons.
See Fig. 1. Left knob controls the fan and increases fan speed when
turned clockwise. Center knob is the temperature control and increases
heat by turning clockwise. Right knob controls air distribution.
The 2 push buttons are ON/OFF switches controlling A/C. Left
button controls normal A/C (outside air). Right button gives maximum
A/C using recirculating air. See Fig. 1.
