ENGINE TUNE-UP ENGINE TUNE-UP PREPARATION L" SST r I I 16EOF2-012 BASIC INSPECTION Engine Oil 1. Remove the dipstick and check the engine oil level and condition. 2. Add or change oil as necessary. 49 B019 9AO System Selector Coolant (engine cold) For inspection of ignition timing and idle speed Warning Removing the radiator cap or the coolant drain plug while the engine is running, or when the en- gine and radiator are hot is dangerous. Scalding coolant and steam may shoot out and cause seri- ous injury. It may also damage the engine and cooling system. Turn off the engine and wait until it is cool. Even then, be very careful when remov- ing the cap. Wrap a thick cloth around it and slow- ly turn it counterclockwise to the first stop. Step back while the pressure escapes. When you're sure all the pressure is gone, press down on the cap-still using a cloth-turn it, and remove it. 1. Verify that the coolant level is near the radiator filler neck. 2. Verify that the coolant level on the coolant dipstick is be- tween the F and L marks. 3. Add coolant if necessary. Battery Removing the label on the top of the battery or removing the vent caps will void the battery's warranty. 1. Clean any corrosion on the clamps or battery posts. 2. Verify that the battery top is clean. If necessary, clean with baking soda and water. 3. Verify that cables are in good condition and not frayed or corroded. Repair or replace if necessary. 4. Verify that cable clamps are tight. Note Because this is a maintenance free battery, it is not necessary to check the fluid level. Gartner Banana

ENGINE TUNE-UP 8. If the marks are not aligned, remove the ignition coil bracket and push the ignition coil aside for easy access and then loosen the crankshaft position sensor lock bolts, and turn the crankshaft position sensor to make the adjustment. 9. Tighten the distributor lock bolts to the specified torque. Tightening torque: 19-25 N-m (1.9-2.6 kgfem, 14--18 ftqlbf) 10. After adjusting the ignition timing, disconnect the jumper wire or SST from the data link connector. 11. Increase the engine speed and verify that the ignition timing advances. 12. Verify that the ignition timing is within the specification. Ignition timing: BTDC 6-18' ldle Speed 1. Perform Preparation. (Refer to page F-76.) 2. Set switch A to position 1. 3. Set test switch to SELF TEST. 4. With the coolant fan off, verify that the idle speed is within specification. ldle speed (Neutral): 800-900(850 + 50) rpm [MT] (P range): 750--850(800 -c 50) rpm [AT] 5. If not within the specification, adjust the idle by turning the air adjusting screw. 6. Disconnect the SST. Gartner Banana
