Inspection and Adjustment
Pump Belt
When using a new belt. first adjust the deflection or ten-
sion to the values for the new belt, then readjust the
deflection or tension to the values for the used belt after
running engine for five minutes.
Inspection
Note these items during inspection:
a lf there are cracks or any damage evident on the belt,
replace it with a new one.
. Follow the manufacturer's instructions lor the tension
gauge.
'1. Remove the P/S reservoir from the bracket, and set
it aside.
2. Attach the belt tension gauge to the belt with the
gauge face toward the engine, and measure the ten-
sion of the belt.
Remove the belt tension gauge carefully to avoid
hitting the gauge reset lever.
Tension:
Used Belt: 390 - 540 N {40 - 55 kgf, 88 - 121 lbf)
New Belt: 7,[0 - 840 N (75 - 90 kgf, 165 - 198 lbf)
CRANKSHAFT PULLEY
17-14
Measurement without Belt Tension Gauge:
Apply a force ot 98 N (10 kgf,22 lbt) and measure the
deflection between the power steering pump and the
crankshaft oullevs.
Deflection:
Used Belt: 11.0 - 1i1.5 mm {0.'(l - 0.57 in)
New Belt: 7.5 - 10.0 mm {0.30 - 0.39 in)
CRANKSHAFT PULLEY
Adiustment
'1. Loosen the power steering pump mounting bolt
and pump lock bolt.
PUMP MOUNNNG BOLT24 N'm (2.4 kgf'm, 17 lbf ftl
PUMP LOCK BOLT24 N.m 12.4 kgf.m, 17 lbf.ftl
Adjust the belt tension by moving the power steer-
ing pump with a 1/2" drive breaker bar to obtain theproper belt tension, then retighten the mounting
bolt and lock bolt.
Start the engine and turn the steering wheel from
lock-to-lock several times, then stop the engine and
recheck the deflection of the belt.

A/C Compressor Belt
Adjustment
Detlection Method
1. Apply a force of 98 N (10 kgf, 22 lbfl, and measure
the deflection between the A,/C comDressor and the
crankshaft pulley.
A/C Compressor Eelt
Used Beh: 7.5 - 10.5 mm (0.30 - 0.41 inl
New Belt: 5.0 - 7.0 mm (0.20 - 0.28 in)
Note these items when adjusting belt tension:
. lf there are cracks or any damage evident on the
belt, replace it with a new one.
. "Used belt" means a belt which has been used
for five minutes or more.
. "New belt" means a belt which has been used
for less than five minutes.
Loosen the pivot bolt of the idler pulley bracket and
the locknut ofthe adjusting bolt.
Turn the adjusting bolt to get proper belt tension,
Retighten the pivot bolt of the idler pulley bracket and
the locknut ofthe adiusting bolt.
Recheck the deflection of the A,/C compressor belt,
Tension Gauge Method
1. Attach the special tool to the Ay'C compressor belt as
shown below, and measure the tension of the belt.
A/C Comoressor Belt
Used Belt; 390 - 540 N (40 - 55 kgf, 88 - 120 lbtl
New Belt: 740 - 880 N (75 - 90 kgf, 170 - 200 lbt)
Note these items when adjusting belt tension:
. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the
belt tension gauge.
. lf there are cracks or any damage evident on the
belt, replace it with a new one.
. "Used belt" means a belt which has been used
for five minutes or more.
. "New belt" means a belt which has been used
for less than five minutes.
BELT TENSION GAUGE07JGG - 00't010A
Loosen the pivot bolt of the idler pulley bracket and
the locknut ofthe adjusting bolt.
Turn the adjusting bolt to get proper belt tension.
Retighten the pivot bolt of the idler pulley bracket and
the locknut ofthe adjusting bolt.
Recheck the tension of the A,/C compressor belt.
