ENGINE TUNE-UP HLA TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Problem 1. Noise when engine is started immediately af- ter oil is changed 2. Noise when engine is started after setting approx. one day 3. Noise when engine is started after cranking for 3 seconds or more 4. Noise when engine is started after new HLA is installed 5. Noise continues more than 10 minutes 5. Noise occurs during idle after high speed run- ning Possible Cause Oil leakage in oil passage Oil leakage in HLA Faulty HLA 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 circulate withir engine, includes tolerance for engine oi condition and ambient temperature. Insufficient oil pressure (Refer to page 8-53) Press down HLA by hand. If it does not move, HLA is normal. If it moves, replace HLA. Check oil pressure. If lower than specification, check for cause. Oil pressure; 295-392 kPa I3.0-4.0 kgf/cm2, 43-56 psil-3000 rpm Deteriorated oil Check oil quality. If deteriorated, replace with specified type and amount of oil. Incorrect oil amount IGNITION TIMING, IDLE SPEED Preparation 1. Check the condition of the engine (spark plugs, leaks in hoses, etc.). 2. Make sure all accessories are OFF. 3. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature. 4. Connect a timing light and a tachometer to the data link connector terminal IG-. When using an externally pow- ered timing light and/or tachometer, connect it to the power connector (Blue: 1 -pin). Measure valve clearance. If more than Omm {0 in}, replace HLA. Check oil level. Drain or add oil as necessary. Caution Grounding the power connector terminal (Blue: 1-pin) will burn out the 20A wiper fuse. 5. Make sure coolant fan does not operate. Gartner Banana

ENGINE TUNE-UP B lgnition Timing 1. Connect the SST and set the TEST SW to "SELF TEST or connect data link connector terminals TEN and GND with a ium~er wire. ~ 4 2. Check the'idle speed, and set it to specification if neces- sary. (Refer to section F.) ldle speed (Neutral): 800-900 (850 + 50) rpm [MT] (P range): 750-450 (800 + 50) rpm [AT] 3. Verify that the timing mark (White) on the crankshaft pulley and the timing belt cover are aligned. lgnition timing: BTDC 9"-11" (1 0" + 1 ") 4. If the marks are not aligned, loosen the crankshaft posi- tion sensor lock bolt, and turn the crankshaft position sensor to make the adjustment 5. Tighten the crankshaft position sensor lock bolt to the specified torque. Tightening torque: 19-25 N.m {I .9--2.6 kgf.m, 1 &-I8 ft-lbf) 6. Disconnect the SST. 7. Verify that the ignition timing is within the specification. Ignition timing: BTDC 6-18" ldle Speed 1. Connect the SST and set the TEST SW to "SELF-TEST or connect data link connector terminals TEN and GND with a jumper wire. 2. Verify that the idle speed is within specification. ldle speed (Neutral): 800-900 (850 + 50) rpm [MT] (P range): 75-50 (800 -e 50) rpm [AT] 3. If the idle speed is not within specification, remove the blind cap from the air adjusting screw and adjust it. 4. After adjusting the idle speed, install the blind cap and disconnect the SST or jumper wire from the data link connector. Gartner Banana

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 (Refer to page B-10.) 3. Fuel system (Refer to section F.) INSPECTION 1. Check that the battery is fully charged. Recharge it if necessary. (Refer to section G.) 2. Warm up the engine to the normal operating tempera- ture. 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 en- gine. 8. Record the maximum gauge reading. 9. Check each cylinder, as above. Compression: 1,255 kPa (1 2.8 kgf/cm2, 182 psi)-300 rpm Minimum: 883 kPa (9.0 kgf/cm2, 128 psiF300 rpm Differential limit between cylinders: 196 kPa (2.0 kgf/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 re- check 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 seated improperly. (3) If the compression in adjacent cylinders stays low, the cylinder head gasket may be defective or the cyl- inder head distorted. 11 . Connect the ignition coil connector. 12. Install the spark plugs. Tightening torque: 15--22 N.m (1.5-2.3 kgf.m, 11-16 ftlbf) Gartner Banana

ON-VEHICLE MAINTENANCE CYLINDER HEAD GASKET Replacement Warning e Fuel line spills and leaks are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the "Fuel Line Safety Procedures" on section F. Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can very easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep sparks and flames away from fuel. 1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. 2. Drain the engine coolant. (Refer to section E.) 3. Remove in the order shown in the figure, referring to Removal Note. 4. Install in the reverse order of removal, referring to Installation Note. Gartner Banana
