lgnition Timing Inspection and Setting
2.
1.Check the idle speed, and adjust it if necessary (see
section 1 1).
Pull out the service check connector 2P (BRN and
BLK wires) from the connector holder located under
the dash on the front passenger side, then connect
the scs service connector (P/N 07PAz - 0010100) to
it.
Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with
no load (A/T in N or E, Mff in neutral) until the
radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
Connect the timing light to the No. I ignition wire,
then point the light toward the pointer on the timing
belt cover.
Check the ignition timing in no load conditions:
headlights, blower fan, rear window defogger, and
air conditioner are not operating.

9. Perform the following checks and adjustments:. Check that the spring clip on the ends of the drive-shaft and intermediate shaft clicks into place. Usenew spring clips.. Adjust the shift cable (see section l4).. Adjust the throttle cable (see section 11).. Refill the engine with engine oil (see page g-4).
. Refill the transmission with oil or fluid (see sec-tion 13 or 14).
. Refill the radiator with engine coolant (see page
10_5).
. Bleed air from the cooling system with theheater valve open (see page l0-5).. Clean the battery posts and cable terminals withsandpaper, assemble them, then apply grease toDrevent corrosron.. Inspect for fuel leakage (see section 1l).After assembling fuel line pans, turn on the igni-tion switch (do not operate the starter) so thatthe fuel pump operates for approximately twoseconds and the fuel Iine pressurizes.
Repeat this operation two or three times, andcheck for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.

Valve Seals
Replacement (cylinder head removal not required)
The procedure shown below applies when using the in-
car valve spring compressor (Snap-on YA8845 with
YA8845-2A 7/8" auachment). Use approved eye protec-
tion.
1. Turn the crankshaft so that the No. 1 and the No. 4
pistons are at top dead center (TDC).
2. Remove the cylinder head cover.
3. Remove the distributor.
4. Loosen and disconnect the timing belt from the
camshaft pulleys.
5. Remove the camshaft holder bolts. then remove the
camshaft holders, the camshafts and rocker arms.

6. Using the 6 mm bolts supplied with the tool, mount
the two uprights to the cylinder head at the end
camshaft holders. The uprights fit as shown.
7. Insert the cross shaft through the top hole of the
two uprights,
at.
9.
Select the 7/8 in. diameter long compressor attach-
ment, and fasten the attachment to the front hole of
the lever arm with the speed pin supplied.
Position the piston at TDC, and insen an air adaptor
into the spark plug hole. Pump air into the cylinder
to keep the valve closed while compressing the
springs and removing the valve keepers.
10. Put shop towels over the oil passages to prevent
the valve keepers from falling into the cylinder
head.
Position the lever arm under the cross shaft so the
lever is perpendicular to the shaft and the compres-
sor attachment rests on top of the retainer for the
spring being compressed. Use the rear position slot
on the lever as shown,
