Checking/Changing
Checking
NOTE: Check the fluid level with the engine at normal
operating temperature (the cooling lan comes on).
1. Park the car on level ground. Shut otf the engine.
2. Remove the dipstick (yellow loop) from the trans-
mission, and wipe it with a clean cloth.
3. Insert the dipstick into the transmission.

Changing
1. Bring the transmission up to operating temperature
by driving the car. Park the car on level ground, turn
the engine oft, then remove drain plug.
NOTE: lf a cooler flusher is to be used, see page
14-168 and 169.
2. Reinstail the drain plug with a new sealing washer,
then refillthe transmission to the upper mark on the
dipstick.

Pressure Testing
a While testing, be caretul of the rotating flont wheels.a Make aura litts, jacks, and sat€ty stands alo placedplop6rly {see section 1}.
CAUTION: Betore t€sting, be sure the transmission fluidis tilled to rh6 ploper l€vet.
1. Raise the car (see section i),
2. Warm up the engine {the cooling fan comes onl, thenstop the engine and connect a tachometer.
3. Connect the oil pressure gauge to each inspectionholels).
TOROUE: 18 N.m (1.8 kgf.m, 13 tbf.fr)
CAUTION: Connect ths oil prsssure gauge s€cur€_ly; be sule not to allow dust and other foleign pani_cl6s to 6nt€1 th€ inspection holo.

Throttle Control Cable
Inspection
NOTE: Betore inspecting the throttle control cable, make
sure:
a Throttle cable free play is correct (see section 1 1).
a ldle speed is correct (see section 1l).
a To warm up the engine to normal operating tempera-
ture {the cooling fan cor'res on)
1 . Verify that the throttle control cable is clamped cor-
rectly with three positions.

Verify that the throttle control level is synchronized
with the thronle linkage while depressing and releas-
ing the accelerator pedal.
lf the throttle control lever is not synchronized with
the throttle linkage. adjust the throttle control cable.

Troubleshooting
Reference Ghart
. Any abnormality must be correctsd before continuing the test.. Because of the precise measurgments needed, use a multimeter when testing.
Before performing any troubleshooting procedures check:. Fus€s .r No. 35120 A), *1 No. 33 (20 A), ), No. 13(7.5A). Grounds No. G401, G201, G'151, G101. Cleanliness and tightness of all connectors*1: In the under-hood fuse/relay box*2: In the under-dash fuse/relay box
SYMPTOMREMEDY
Radiator fan does not run 8t all.Perform the procedures in the flowchan (see page 22-8).

Spark Plug Inspection
1. Inspect the electrodes and ceramic insulator for:
. rmproper gap. Oil-touling. Carbon deposits. Cracked centerelectrode insulatorDamagedgask6t
Burned or worn electlodes may be caused by:. Advanced ignition timing. Loose spark plug. Plug heat range too low. Insufficient cooling
Fouled plug may be caused by:. Retarded ignition timing. Oil in combustion chamber. lncorrect spark plug gap. Plug heat range too high. txcessive idling/low speed running. Clogged air cleaner element. Deteriorated ignition coil or ignition wires
Check the electrode gap.
Bl88l engine:
a Adjust the gap with a suitable gapping tool.
Electrode Gap
Standard: 1.0-1.1 mm (O.O39-0.O43 in)
1.1 mm{0.0,$ in)
Replace the plug if the center electrode is round-
ed as shown below:
ROUNDEDELECTROOE
Bl8Cl engine:
a Make sure that the '1.4 mm (0.055 in) wire-typeplug gauge does not go into the gap for the plati-
num tip plug. lf the gauge goes into the gap, do
not attempt to adjust the side electrode; replace
the plug with a new one. Use only the spark plugs
listed below.
ROUNDEO ELECTRODE
Electrode GapStandard: 1 .2-'l .3 mm{0.047 -O.051 in)Service Limit: 1.4 mm{0.055 in)
CAUTION: Do not use a blade-type plug gaugs, it
may damage the platinum tip of the center olectrodo.

3. Apply a small quantity ol anti-seize compound to the
plug threads.
Screw the plugs into the cylinder head iingef-tight,
then torque them to 18 N.m (1.8 kgf.m, 13lbf.ft).

Fan Controls
Fan Motor Test
1. Disconnect the 2-P connector from the fan motor.
2. Test the motot by connecting battery power to the
B terminal, and ground to the A terminal
3. lf the Jan motor fails to run smoothly, replace it.
NOTE: The illustration shows the radiator fan.
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT)
Switch Test
NOTE: Bleed air from the cooling system atter install-
ing the engine coolant temperature (ECT) switch (see sec-
tion 1O).
1. Remove the ECT switch from the thermostat
housing.
2. Suspend the ECT switch in a container of coolant
as shown.
Heat the coolant and check engine coolanl tempera-
ture with a thermometer.
Check the continuity between the A and B terminals
according to the table:
