Accelerator
and
Throttle
Linkage

The
accelerator
and
throttie
linkage
should
be
lubricated
pe-
riodically
.
Use
a
general
purpose
oil
on

joints
and

.
Use
a
multipurpose
grease
on
the
bearing
points

of
the
throttie

Engine

Belts

Drive
belts
and
pulleys
transfer
power
from
theengine
crank-

shaft
to
various
accessories
.
See
Fig

.
Depending
on
model

and
model
year,
engine
driven
accessories
are
driven
by
V-

belts,
poly-ribbed
(serpentine)
belts,
or
a
combination
of
the

two
.
For
example,
early
4-cylinder
engines,
usetwo
V-belts
and
one
poly-ribbed
belt
.

Inspect
drivebelts
with
the
engine
off
.
lf
the
belt
shows
signs

of
wear,
cracking,
glazing,
or
missing
sections,
it
should
be
re-

placed
immediately

are
al¡
reasons

to

.

Replacement
of
the
V-belts
every
four
years
is
recommend-

ed
.
Loosen
the

and
adjust
the

unit

until

NOTE-

When

for
emergency
use
.

When
installing
a
new
belt,
gently
pry
it
over
the
pulleys
.
Too

much
force
may
damage
the
belt
or
the

.
Tension
the

belt(s),
runthe

for
a
few
minutes
(at
least
1500
rpm),

then
recheck
the
belt
tension
.

CAUTION-

Do
not
over
tighten
the
V-belts
.
Overtightening
will
cause

to
fail
prematurely
.

Poly-ribbed
belt,
replacing

(4-cylinder
engines
buiit
from

and
all
6-cylinder

An
automatic
belt
tensioner
is
used
to
keep
the
belts
ten-

sioned
properly
.
Unless
the
tensioner
mechanism
malfunc-

tions,
the
poly-ribbed
belts
do
not
require
tension
adjustment
.

To
reduce
the
chance
ofbelt
failure
while

replace-

ment
of
the

every
four
years
is
recommended
.

To
remove
the
belt,
it
is
necessary
toretract

er
.
Using
a
breaker
bar
or

rotate

the

WARNING
-

Observe
care
when

.
Personal

could
result
if
the

belt
removed
from

inspect
the
pulleys

for
wear
or
damage
that
may
cause

If
a
large
air
leak
is
causing
driveability
problems,
the
Check
Engine
light
will
usually
be
illuminated
and
a
fault
will
be
stored
in
the
fault
code
memory
.
See
On
Board
Diagnostics
(OBD)
.

There
are
many
places
for
unmeasured
air
to
enter
theen-

gine
.
First,
inspect
all
hoses,
fittings,
ducts,
seals,
and
gaskets

in
the
intake
air
tract
for
cracks
or
looseness
.
It
may
be
neces-

sary
to
remove
parts
that
cannot
be
fully
checked
in
their
in-

stalled
positions
.
Also
make
sure
all
of
the
intake
manifold
and

throttle
body
mounting
nuts
are
tight
.

In
addition
to
air
leaks,
air
restrictions
can
also
cause
drive-

ability
problems
.
Remove
the
air
filter
and
hold
it
up
to
a
strong

light
source
.
If
the
filter
does
not
pass
light,
it
is
restricted
and

should
be
replaced
.
Also,
remove
the
intake
air
ductwork
and

check
for
oily
deposits
at
the
throttle
plate
.
Buildup
in
this
area

can
cause
an
erratic
idle
.
Clean
away
any
deposits
using
a

cloth
wetted
withcarburetor
cleaner
and
reinstall
the
ductwork
.

CAUTION-

Do
not
spray
carburetor
cleaner
directly
in

throt-
tle

.
Spraying
cleaner
may
force
it
