General Troubleshooting
Check the following before you begin:
o Has the suspension been modified in a way that would affect steering?
. Are tire sizes and air pressure correct?
. lsthe steering wheel original equipment or equivalent?
. ls the power steering pump belt properly adiusted?
. ls steering fluid reservoirtilled to proper level?
. ls the engine idle speed correct and steadyT
Hard steering (check the power assist, see page 17-18. It the torce is over 34 N (3.5 kgf, 7 7 lbf), proceed with this troubl*hooting l

Wheel Alignment
Caster
NOTE: For proper inspection/adjustment of the wheel
alignment check and adjust the following before check-
ing the alignment.
. Check that the susoension is not modified.
. Check the tire size and tire pressure.
. Check the runout of the wheels and tires.
. Check the suspension ball joints. (Hold a wheel with
your hands and move it up and down and right and
left to check tor wobbling.)
Inspection
NOTE: Use commercially-available computerized four
wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel align-
ment {caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow
the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
1. Check the caster angle.
Casler angle: 1'10't 1"
2. lf out of specification. check for bent or damaged
suspension compohents.
Camber
Inspection
NOTE: Use commercially available computerized four
wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel align-
ment (caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow
the eouioment manufacturer's instructions.
1. Check the camber angle.
