Detlection Method:
Apply a force ol 98 N (1 0 ksl, 22 lbl) and measure the
deflection between the alternator and the crankshaft
DUllev,
Defloction: 9- 11 mm (O.35-O.43 inl
NOTE: On a brand-new belt (one that has been run
for less than five minutes), the deflection should be
81881, Bl8Cl engine: 6 - 8 mm (0.23 - 0.32 inl,
818C5 engine: 7 - I mm (0.28 - 0.35 in) when first
measured, lf the belt is worn or damaged, replace it.

lf adiustment is necessary:
1. Loosen the alternator adjusting nut and mounting
nut.
2.
3.
Move the alternator to obtain the proper belt tension,
then retighten the adiusting nut and mounting nut
to the specified torques.
Recheck the dellection of the belt.
NOTE: lI necessary, adjust the P/S pump belt (see
section 17) and A/C compressor belt (see section
221.
Belt Tension Gauge Method:
Following the gauge manulacturer's instructions, attach
the belt tension gauge to the belt and measure the
tension.
Tension: 340-490 N {35-50 kgf,77-11O lbf)
NOTE: On a brand-new belt (one that has been run
for less than five minutes), tension should be
818B1, 818C1 engine: 690 - 880 N (70 - 90 kgf, 154 -
198 lbf), 818C5 engine: 540 - 740 N (55 - 75 kgf,
121 - 165 lbf) when first measured. lf the belt is
worn or damaged, replace it.
lf adiustment is necessary:
1. Loosen the alternator adjusting nut and mounting
nut.
2.
3.
Move the alternator to obtain the proper belt tension,
then retighten the adjusting nut and mounting nut
to the specified torques.
Recheck the tension ot the belt.
NOTE: It necessary, adjust the P/S pump belt (see
section 17) and A/C compressor belt (see section
22t.

ENGINE OIL PBESSURE SWITCH
Check for continuity between the positive terminal
and the engine (ground) with the ignition switch OFF.
a lf there is continuity, go to step 3.
a lf there is no continuity, replace the switch.
Check lor continuity again, this time with the engine
running.
a lf there is continuity, go to step 4.
a lf there is no continuity, the switch is OK.
Make sure engine oil level is OK, then check engine
oil pressure (see section 8).
a lf engine oil pressure is OK, replace the switch.
a lf engine oil pressure is low, check the engine oil
pump (see section 8) and, iI necessary, replace it.

Position the switch slider to "Neutral" as shown
above.
Move the shitt lever to "Neutral", then slip the
switch into position.
Attach the switch with the two nuts.
Test the switch in the @ and I position of the shift
lever. The engine should start when the shift lever

3. Recheck for continuity between each of the ter-
manals.
NOTE:
a ll adjustment is not possible, check for damage

Headlight
Adjustment
Befole adiusting the headlights:
a Park the car on level ground.
a Make sure the fuel tank is full.
The driver or someone who weighs the same should
sit in the driver's seat.
Load the trunk with the items you usually carry (if you
usually pull a trailer, attach jt to the car).
Push down on the front and rear bumpers several
times to make sure the car is sitting normally.
When installing a new headlight assembly, tighten the
four mounting bolts so that the indicator in the verti-
cal gauge comes to the "O" mark.
HORIZONTAL ANGLEGAUGE
HORIZONTALADJUSTER
'1. Open the hood.
2. Check that both the horizontal and vertical gauge
rcad "O" .
a lf the gauges tead "O", check headlight aiming
with the aiming charts on page 23-171. (lf aiming
isn't correct. refer to the frame repair chart in
section 20).
a lf one or both gauges don't read "O", go to step
23-170
3. Turn the low beams on. lf necessary, align the verti-
cal indicator with its "O" mark by turning the verti-
cal adjuster with a Phillips screwdriver, and check
aiming with the chan on page 23-171.
lf necessary, align the horizontal indicator with its"O" mark by turning the horizontal adjuster with a
Phillips screwdriver, and check aiming with the
chart on page 23-171.
5.Recheck that the vertical indicator bubble is aligned
with "0" t 1.
lf necessary, adjust as described in step 3.
Turn the high beams on and check aiming with the
charts on page 23-171.
