SRS components are located in this area. Review the SRS component locations. precautions, and procedures in the SRS
section (241 before performing repairs or seryice.
'1. Remove the driver's dashboard lower cover and knee bolster {see section 20).
2. Disconnect the 'l4P connector from the control unit.
3. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact
lf the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
lf the terminals look OK, make the following input tests at the connector.- lf any test indicates a problem. find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
- lf all the input tests prove OK, the control unit must be faulty; replace it.

@a Make sure iacks and safety stands are placed properly
and hoist brackets are attached to the correct oosi-
tions on the engine.
. Make sure the vehicle will not roll oft stands and fall
while you are working under it.
NOTEI
. Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted sur-
faces.
o To avoid damage. unplug the wiring connectors care-
fully while holding the connector portion.
lvlark all wiring and hoses to avoid misconnection.
Also, be sure that they do not contact other wiring or
hoses, or interfere with other parts.
Secure the hood in the open position.
Disconnect the battery negative terminal first, then the
positive terminal.
Disconnect the battery cables from the under-hood

Valve Clearance
Adiustment
Adjust the valves only when the cylinder head tempera-
ture is less than 100"F (38"C).
1. Remove the cylinder head cover.
Remove the middle cover (see page 6-11).
Set the No. 1 piston at TDC. The "UP" mark on the
pulleys should be at the top, and the TDC marks on
the pulleys should align with the pointers on the back
POINTERPOINTER
Adjust the valves on No. 1 cylinder.
Intake: 0.08 - 0.12 mm (0.003 - 0.005 inl
Exhaust: 0.16 - 0.20 mm (0.006 - 0.008 in)
Loosen the locknut, and turn the adiustment screw
until the feeler gauge slides back and forth with a
slight amount of drag.

Valve Seals
Replacement (cylinder head removal not required)
The procedure shown below applies when using the in-
car valve spring compressor (Snap-on YA8845 with
YA8845-2A 7/8" auachment). Use approved eye protec-
tion.
1. Turn the crankshaft so that the No. 1 and the No. 4
pistons are at top dead center (TDC).
2. Remove the cylinder head cover.
3. Remove the distributor.
4. Loosen and disconnect the timing belt from the
camshaft pulleys.
5. Remove the camshaft holder bolts. then remove the
camshaft holders, the camshafts and rocker arms.
lntake Valve Seals
6. Using the 6 mm bolts supplied with the tool, mount
the two uprights to the cylinder head at the end
camshaft holders. The uprights fit as shown.
7. Insert the cross shaft through the top hole of the
two uprights,
at.
9.
Select the 7/8 in. diameter long compressor attach-
ment, and fasten the attachment to the front hole of
the lever arm with the speed pin supplied.
Position the piston at TDC, and insen an air adaptor
into the spark plug hole. Pump air into the cylinder
to keep the valve closed while compressing the
springs and removing the valve keepers.
10. Put shop towels over the oil passages to prevent
the valve keepers from falling into the cylinder
head.
Position the lever arm under the cross shaft so the
lever is perpendicular to the shaft and the compres-
sor attachment rests on top of the retainer for the
spring being compressed. Use the rear position slot
on the lever as shown,

Inspection
Remove the cylinder head cover.
lnspect the timing belt for c.acks and oil or coolant
soaking. Replace the belt if it is oil or coolant
soaked. Remove any oil or solvent that gets on the
belt.
lnspect thisarea for wear.
After inspecting, retorque the crankshaft pulley bolt
to 177 N.m (18.0 kgnm, 130 lbf.ft).
Install the cylinder head cover (see page 6-32).

Tension Adjustment
NOTE:
. Always adjust the timing belt tension with the engine
coto.
. Always rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise when
viewed from the pulley side. Rotating it clockwise
may result in improper adiustment of the belt ten-
sion.
'1. Remove the cylinder head cover
2. Set the No. 1 piston at TDC (see page.6-12).
3. Rotate the crankshaft five or six revolutions to set
the belt.
Set the No. 1 piston at TDC.
Loosen the adjusting bolt 1/2 turn (180') only.
