(b) Remove the steering wheel pad (See page SR-13).
(c) Start the engine and run it at idle.
(d) Measure the steering effort in both directions.
Reference: 7.8 N´m (80 kgf´cm, 69 in.´lbf)
HINT:
Be sure to consider the tire type, pressure and contact surface
before making your diagnosis.
(e) Torque the steering wheel set nut.
Torque: 34 N´m (350 kgf´cm, 25 ft´lbf)
