INSPECTION PROCEDURE 11
When the engine is cold, it stalls at idling. (Die out)
Probable cause
In such cases as the above, the cause is probably that the air/fuel mixture is inappropriate
when the engine is cold, or that the intake air volume is insufficient.Malfunction of the ISC servo system
Malfunction of the throttle body
Malfunction of the injector system
Malfunction of the ignition system
Were the battery terminals disconnected recently?Ye sAfter warming-up, let the engine run at idling for about 10 minutes.
No

REAR AXLE – On-vehicle Service 27-31
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
REAR AXLE TOTAL BACKLASH CHECK
If the drive system roars or the vehicle vibrates, use the
following procedure to measure total backlash in the rear
axle. Based on the measurement taken, determine whether
the differential carrier assembly needs to be removed or not.
1. Place the shift lever in the neutral position and operate
the parking brake.
2. Turn the propeller shaft fully clockwise and make an
alignment mark on the companion flange dust cover and
gear carrier.
3. Turn the propeller shaft fully counterclockwise and
measure the deviation between the alignment marks.
Limit: 5 mm
4. If the backlash exceeds the limit, replace the differential
carrier assembly.
GEAR OIL LEVEL CHECK
DIFFERENTIAL
1. Remove the filler plug.
2. Check that the gear oil level is within the specified range
from the bottom end of the filler plug hole.
Standard value (A): 6 mm
3. If the gear oil level exceeds the standard value, add the
specified gear oil up to the bottom end of the filler plug
hole.
Specified gear oil:
Hypoid gear oil API classification GL-5 or higher
SAE viscosity Number 90, 80W.
NOTE
10C or more: #90, less than 10C: #80
4. Fit the filler plug and tighten it to the specified torque.

1. Remove the filler plug.
2. Check that the gear oil level is up to the bottom end
of the filler plug hole.
3. If the gear oil level is lower than the bottom end of the
filler plug hole, add the specified gear oil up to the bottom
end of the filler plug hole.
Specified gear oil:
