Measurement of Compression Pressure
1. Warm up engine.
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. Release fuel pressure.
Refer to EC section (``Fuel Pressure Release'', ``BASIC SER-
VICE PROCEDURE'').
4. Remove all spark plugs.
5. Disconnect distributor center cable.
6. Attach a compression tester to No. 1 cylinder.
7. Depress accelerator pedal fully to keep throttle valve wide
open.
8. Crank engine and record highest gauge indication.
9. Repeat the measurement on each cylinder.
lAlways use a fully-charged battery to obtain specified
engine speed.
Compression pressure:
kPa (bar, kg/cm
2, psi)/rpm
Standard
1,324 (13.24, 13.5, 192)/300
Minimum
981 (9.8, 10, 142)/300
Difference limit between cylinders
98 (0.98, 1.0, 14)/300
10. If compression in one or more cylinders is low:
a. Pour a small amount of engine oil into cylinders through
spark plug holes.
b. Retest compression.
lIf adding oil helps compression, piston rings may be
worn or damaged. If so, replace piston rings after check-
ing piston.
lIf pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or seating
improperly. Inspect and repair valve and valve seat.
(Refer to SDS.) If valve or valve seat is damaged
excessively, replace them.
lIf compression stays low in two cylinders that are next
to each other:
a. The cylinder head gasket may be leaking, or
b. Both cylinders may have valve component damage.
Inspect and repair as necessary.

CAUTION:
lWhen installing rocker arms, camshaft and oil seal, lubri-
cate contacting surfaces with new engine oil.
lWhen tightening cylinder head bolts and rocker shaft
bolts, lubricate bolt threads and seat surfaces with new
engine oil.
lHydraulic valve lifters are installed in each rocker arm.
If hydraulic valve lifter is kept on its side, even when
installed in rocker arm, there is a risk of air entering it.
When rocker arms are removed, stand them straight up
or soak them in new engine oil.
lDo not disassemble hydraulic valve lifter.
lAttach tags to valve lifters so as not to mix them up.
Removal
1. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC section (``Fuel Pressure
Release'').
2. Drain coolant from radiator and drain plug of block.
3. Remove the following parts.
lPower steering drive belt
lPower steering pump, idler pulley and power steering brack-
ets
lVacuum hoses of swirl control valve and pressure control
solenoid valve
lAccelerator wire bracket
4. Remove bolts which hold intake manifold collector to intake
manifold.
5. Remove bolts which hold intake manifold to cylinder head
while raising collector upwards.
6. Remove exhaust manifold cover and exhaust manifold.
7. Remove rocker cover.
lWhen removing rocker cover, do not hit rocker cover
against rocker arm.
8. Set No. 1 piston at TDC on its compression stroke.

WARNING:
lPosition vehicle on a flat and solid surface.
lPlace chocks at front and back of rear wheels.
lDo not remove engine until exhaust system has com-
pletely cooled off.
Otherwise, you may burn yourself and/or fire may break
out in fuel line.
lBefore disconnecting fuel hose, release fuel pressure.
Refer to EC section (``Fuel Pressure Release'').
lBe sure to hoist engine and transmission in a safe man-
ner.
lFor engines not equipped with engine slingers, attach
proper slingers and bolts described in PARTS CATA-
LOG.
CAUTION:
lWhen lifting engine, be sure to clear surrounding parts.
Take special care near accelerator wire casing, brake
lines and brake master cylinder.
lIn lifting the engine, always use engine slingers in a safe
manner.
lFor 4WD models, apply sealant between engine and
transmission. Refer to MT section (``Removal and Instal-
lation'').

Removal
1. Drain coolant from engine block and radiator. Refer to MA
section (``Changing Engine Coolant'', ``ENGINE MAINTE-
NANCE'').

Release'').
3. Remove negative battery cable.
4. Remove hood. Refer to BT section.
5. Remove power steering drive belt, alternator drive belt and
A/C compressor drive belt.
6. Remove radiator. Refer to LC section (``Radiator'', ``ENGINE
COOLING SYSTEM'').
7. Remove exhaust manifold heat shield.
8. Disconnect exhaust system from exhaust manifold.
9. Discharge refrigerant. Refer to HA section (``R-134a Service
Procedure'', ``SERVICE PROCEDURES'').
10. Disconnect refrigerant lines. Refer to HA section (``Refriger-
ant Lines'', ``SERVICE PROCEDURES'').
11. Disconnect accelerator wire, vacuum hoses, electrical
connectors, heater hoses and vacuum booster hose.
12. Remove four power steering pump bolts.
13. Remove transmission. Refer to MT section (``Removal'',

Measurement of Compression Pressure
1. Warm up engine.
2. Stop engine. Remove glow plate and glow plugs.
3. Fit compression gauge adapter to cylinder head.
Compression gauge adapter:
:15-20Nzm (1.5 - 2.0 kg-m, 11 - 14 ft-lb)
4. Disconnect fuel cut solenoid wire connector.
5. Crank engine, then read gauge indication.
lEngine compression measurement should be made as
quickly as possible.
Compression pressure:
Unit: kPa (bar, kg/cm2, psi)/200 rpm
Standard 2,942 (29.4, 30, 427)
Minimum 2,452 (24.5, 25, 356)
Differential limit between cylinders 294 (2.9, 3, 43)
6. If cylinder compression in one or more cylinders is low, pour
a small quantity of engine oil into cylinders through the glow
holes and retest compression.
lIf adding oil helps the compression pressure, chances
are that piston rings are worn or damaged.
lIf pressure stays low, valve may be sticking or seating
improperly.
lIf cylinder compression in any two adjacent cylinders is
low, and if adding oil does not help the compression,
there is leakage past the gasketed surface.
Oil and water in combustion chambers can result from
this problem.
