UNDER HOOD
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
1. GENERAL NOTES
Maintenance items may vary from country to country. Check the owner’s manual supplement in which
the maintenance schedule is shown.
Every service item in the periodic maintenance schedule must be performed.
Periodic maintenance service must be performed according to whichever interval in the periodic main-
tenance schedule occurs first, the odometer reading (miles) or the time interval (months).
Maintenance service after the last period should be performed at the same interval as before unless
otherwise noted.
Failure to do even one item can cause the engine to run poorly and increase exhaust emissions.
2. WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID
Check that there is sufficient fluid in the tank.
3. ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL
Check that the coolant level is between the FULL and LOW lines on the see−through reservoir.
4. RADIATOR AND HOSES
(a) Check that the front of the radiator is clean and not blocked with leaves, dirt or bugs.
(b) Check the hoses for cracks, kinks, rot or loose connections.
5. BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
Check that the electrolyte level of all battery cells is between the upper and lower level lines on the case.
6. BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUID LEVELS
Check that the brake and clutch fluid levels are near the upper level line on the see−through reservoirs.
7. ENGINE DRIVE BELTS
Check all drive belts for fraying, cracks, wear or oiliness.
8. ENGINE OIL LEVEL
Check the level on the dipstick with the engine turned off.
9. POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
(a) Check the level on the dipstick.
(b) The level should be in the HOT or COLD range depending on the fluid temperature.
10. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID LEVEL
(a) Park the vehicle on a level surface.
(b) With the engine idling and the parking brake applied, shift the selector into all positions from the P to
L, and then shift into the P position.
(c) Pull out the dipstick and wipe off the fluid with a clean rag. Re−insert the dipstick and check that the
fluid level is in the HOT range.
(d) Do this check with the fluid at normal driving temperature (70 − 80°C, 158 − 176°F).
HINT:
Wait until the engine cools down (approx. 30 min.) before checking the fluid level after extended driving at
high speeds, in hot weather, in heavy traffic or pulling a trailer.
11. EXHAUST SYSTEM
(a) Visually inspect for cracks, holes or loose supports.
(b) If any change in the sound of the exhaust or smell of the exhaust fumes is noticed, have the cause
located and corrected.

HINT:
There is no O/D up−shift and lock−up in the 2 position.
(2) Check engine braking.
While running in the 2 position and 2nd gear, release the accelerator pedal and check the engine
braking effect.
Evaluation:
ProblemPossible cause
If there is no engine braking effect2nd coast brake defective
(3) Check for abnormal noises during acceleration and deceleration, and for shock at up−shift and
down−shift.
(c) L position test
Shift into the 2 position and fully depress the accelerator pedal and check the following points:
(1) Check no up−shift.
While running in the L position, check that there is no up−shift to 2nd gear.
(2) Check engine braking.
While running in the L position, release the accelerator pedal and check the engine braking ef-
fect.
Evaluation:
ProblemPossible cause
If there is no engine braking effect1st and reverse brake is defective
(3) Check for abnormal noises during acceleration and deceleration.
(d) R position test
Shift into the R position and fully depress the accelerator pedal and check for slipping.
CAUTION:
Before conducting this test ensure that the test area is free from personnel and obstruction.
(e) P position test
Stop the vehicle on a grade (more than 5°) and after shifting into the P position, release the parking
brake. Then, check to see that the parking lock pawl holds the vehicle in place.
5. BASIC INSPECTION
(a) Check the fluid level.
HINT:
Drive the vehicle so that the engine and transmission are
at normal operating temperature.
Fluid temp.: 70 − 80°C (158 − 176°F)
Only use the COOL range on the dipstick as a rough refer-
ence when the fluid is replaced or the engine does not
run.
(1) Park the vehicle on a level surface and set the park-
ing brake.
(2) With the engine idling and the brake pedal de-
pressed, shift the shift lever into all positions from P
to L position and return to P position.
(3) Pull out the dipstick and wipe it clean.
(4) Push it back fully into the pipe.
(5) Pull it out and check that the fluid level is in the HOT
range.

If the level is at the low side, add new fluid.
Fluid type: ATF DEXRON®II
NOTICE:
Do not overfill.
(b) Check the fluid condition.
If the fluid smells burnt or is black, replace it.
(c) Replace the ATF.
(1) Remove the drain plug and drain the fluid.
(2) Reinstall the drain plug securely.
(3) With the engine OFF, add new fluid through the oil
filler pipe.
Fluid type: ATF DEXRON®II
Capacity:
A340E: 1.6 liters (1.7 US qts, 1.4 Imp. qts)
A340F: 2.0 liters (2.1 US qts, 1.8 Imp. qts)
(4) Start the engine and shift the shift lever into all posi-
tions from P to L position and then shift into P posi-
tion.
(5) With the engine idling, check the fluid level. Add
fluid up to the COOL level on the dipstick.
(6) Check the fluid level at the normal operating tem-
perature, 70 − 80°C (158 − 176°F), and add as nec-
essary.
NOTICE:
Do not overfill.
(d) Check the fluid leaks.
Check for leaks in the transmission.
If there are leaks, it is necessary to repair or replace O−
rings, FIPGs, oil seals, plugs or other parts.
(e) INSPECT AND ADJUST THROTTLE CABLE
(1) Check that the accelerator pedal is fully released.
(2) Check that the inner cable is not slack.
(3) Measure the distance between the outer cable end
and stopper on the cable.
Standard distance: 0 − 1 mm (0 − 0.04 in.)
If the distance is not standard, adjust the cable by the adjusting
nuts.
(f) Inspect and adjust the shift lever position.
When shifting the shift lever from the N position to other
positions, check that the lever can be shifted smoothly
and accurately to each position and that the position indi-
cator is not aligned with the correct position.
If the indicator is not aligned with the correct position, carry out
the following adjustment procedures.
(1) Remove the nut on the No.1 gear shifting rod.
(2) Push the No.1 gear shifting rod fully downward.
