C TROUBLESHOOTING
DISCONNECTION AND CONNECTION OF BOLT
TYPE CONNECTORS
For engine control module in this vehicle, connections are used
which require a bolt built into the connector to be screwed down
to securely connect the connector.
1. Disconnect the connector
After completely loosening the bolt, the two parts of the
connector can be separated.
NOTICE:
Do not pull the wire harness when disconnecting the
connector.
2. Connect the connector
NOTICE:
Before connecting the connector, always check that
the terminals are not bent or damaged.
(a) Match the guide section of the male connector
correctly with the female connector, then press
them together.
(b) Tighten the bolt.
Make sure the connectors are completely
connected, by tightening the bolt until there is a
clearance of less than 1 mm (0.04 in.) between the
bottom of male connector and the end of female
connector.

replace the valve.
NOTICE:
Do not grind off more than the minimum overall length.
11. INSPECT AND CLEAN VALVE SEATS
(a) Using a 45° carbide cutter, resurface the valve seats.
Remove only enough metal to clean the seats.
(b) Check the valve seating position.
Apply a thin coat of prussian blue (or white lead) to the
valve face. Lightly press the valve against the seat. Do not
rotate the valve.
(c) Check the valve face and seat for the following:
If blue appears 360° around the face, the valve is
concentric. If not, replace the valve.
If blue appears 360° around the valve seat, the
guide and face are concentric. If not, resurface the
seat.
Check that the seat contact is in the middle of the
valve face with the following width:
Intake 1.0 - 1.4 mm (0.039 - 0.055 in.)
Exhaust 1.2 - 1.6 mm (0.047 - 0.063 in.)
If not, correct the valve seats as follows:
If the seating is too high on the valve face, use 15°
and 45° cutters to correct the seat.
