REMOVAL
•Before removing the vacuum booster assembly,
disconnect and remove brake pipes.
1. Master Cylinder
•Refer to Master Cylinder Assembly in this Section.
CAUTION:
When removing master cylinder from vacuum booster,
be sure to get rid of the internal negative pressure of
the vacuum booster (by, for instance, disconnecting
vacuum hose) in advance.
If any negative pressure remains in the vacuum
booster, the piston may possibly come out when the
master cylinder is being removed, letting the brake
fluid run out.
While removing master cylinder, further, do not hold
the piston as it can be easily pulled out.
Outside surface of the piston is the surface on which
seals are to slide. Care should be taken to keep the
surface free of cuts and dents.
2. Vacuum Hose
3. Yoke Clevis
•Disconnect the yoke clevis from the brake pedal.
4. Vacuum Booster Fixing Nut
5. Vacuum Booster
INSPECTION AND REPAIR
Vacuum Hose
Inspect the check valve (1), which is installed inside
the vacuum hose.
1) Air should pass freely from the vacuum booster
side (3) to the engine side (2).
2) Air should not pass from the engine side (2) to the
vacuum booster side (3). If it does, the check valve
is inoperative and vacuum hose must be replaced.
INSTALLATION
5. Vacuum Booster
Vacuum booster push rod adjustment.
NOTE:
When replacing either master cylinder or vacuum
booster, be sure to measure push rod, and adjust
required.
Push rod gauge: 5-8840-2300-0 (J-39216)
Vacuum pump: 5-8840-0279-0 (J-23738-A)
Push rod support: 5-8840-2305-0 (J-39241)
1) Remove retainer from vacuum booster front shell
using a small screwdriver. Then gently draw plate
and seal assembly out of the shell inside.

General Description
Engine Cleanliness And Care
An automobile engine is a combination of many
machined, honed, polished and lapped surfaces with
tolerances that are measured in the thousandths of a
millimeter (ten thousandths of an inch). Accordingly,
when any internal engine parts are serviced, care and
cleanliness are important. Throughout this section, it
should be understood that proper cleaning and protection
of machined surfaces and friction areas is part of the
repair procedure. This is considered standard shop
practice even if not specifically stated.

A liberal coating of engine oil should be applied to all
friction areas during assembly to protect and lubricate
the surfaces on initial operation.

Whenever valve train components, pistons, piston
rings, connecting rods, rod bearings, and crankshaft
journal bearings are removed for service, they should
be retained in order.

At the time of installation, they should be installed in
the same locations and with the same mating
surfaces as when removed.

Battery cables should be disconnected before any
major work is performed on the engine. Failure to
disconnect cables may result in damage to wire
harness or other electrical parts.

The six cylinders of this engine are identified by
numbers; Right side cylinders 1, 3 and 5, Left side
cylinders 2, 4 and 6, as counted from crankshaft
pulley side to flywheel side.
General Information on Engine Service
The following information on engine service should be
noted carefully, as it is important in preventing damage
and contributing to reliable engine performance:

When raising or supporting the engine for any reason,
do not use a jack under the oil pan. Due to the small
clearance between the oil pan and the oil pump
strainer, jacking against the oil pan may cause
damage to the oil pick±up unit.

The 12±volt electrical system is capable of damaging
circuits. When performing any work where electrical
terminals could possibly be grounded, the ground
cable of the battery should be disconnected at the
battery.

Any time the intake air duct or air cleaner is removed,
the intake opening should be covered. This will
protect against accidental entrance of foreign
material into the cylinder which could cause extensive
damage when the engine is started.
Cylinder Block
The cylinder block is made of aluminum die±cast casting
for 75
V±type six cylinders. It has a rear plate integrated
structure and employs a deep skint. The cylinder liner is
cast and the liner inner diameter and crankshaft journal
diameter are classified into grades. The crankshaft is
supported by four bearings of which width of No.3 bearing
on the body side is different in order to support the thrust
bearing. The bearing cap is made of nodular cast iron and
each bearing cap uses four bolts and two side bolts.
Cylinder Head
The cylinder head, made of aluminum alloy casting
employs a pent±roof type combustion chamber with a
spark plug in the center. The intake and exhaust valves
are placed in V±type design. The ports are cross±flow
type.
Valve Train
Intake and exhaust camshaft on the both side of banks
are driven through an camshaft drive gear by timing belt.
The valves are operated by the camshaft and the valve
clearance is adjusted to select suitable thickness shim.
Intake Manifold
The intake manifold system is composed of the aluminum
cast common chamber and intake manifold attached with
six fuel injectors.
Exhaust Manifold
The exhaust manifold is made of nodular cast iron.
Pistons and Connecting Rods
Aluminum pistons are used after selecting the grade that
meets the cylinder bore diameter. Each piston has two
compression rings and one oil ring. The piston pin is made
of chromium steel is offset 1mm toward the thrust side,
and the thrust pressure of piston to the cylinder wall varies
gradually as the piston travels. The connecting rods are
made of forged steel. The connecting rod bearings are
graded for correct seze selection.
Crankshaft and Bearings
The crankshaft is made of Ductile cast±iron. Pins and
journals are graded for correct size selection for their
bearing.
Engine Lubrication
The oil discharged by a trochoid±type oil pump driven by
the crankshaft is fed through full±flow oil filter and to the oil
gallery provided under the crankshaft bearing cap. The oil
is then led to the crankshaft journals and cylinder head.
The crank pins are lubricated with oil from crankshaft
journals through oil holes. Also, an oil jet is fed to each
cylinder from crankshaft juornals on the connecting rod
for piston cleaning. The oil pan flange is dealed with liquid
packing only; do not deform or damage the flange surface
during removal or installation.

Engine Compression Test Procedure
1. Start and run the engine until the engine reaches
normal operating temperature.
2. Turn the engine off.
3. Remove all the spark plugs.
4. Remove ignition coil fuse (15A) and disable the
ignition system.
5. Remove the fuel pump relay from the relay and fuse
box.
6. Engage the starter and check that the cranking speed
is approximately 300 rpm.7. Install cylinder compression gauge into spark plug
hole.
8. With the throttle valve opened fully, keep the starter
engaged until the compression gage needle reaches
the maximum level. Note the reading.
9. Repeat the test with each cylinder.
If the compression pressure obtained falls below the
limit, engine overhaul is necessary.
