Checking Fuel Lines
Inspect fuel lines and tank for improper attachment and for leaks,
cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing and deterioration.
If necessary, repair or replace faulty parts.
CAUTION:
Tighten high-pressure rubber hose clamp so that clamp end
is 3 mm (0.12 in) from hose end.
Tightening torque specifications are the same for all rubber
hose clamps.
Ensure that screw does not contact adjacent parts.
Changing Fuel Filter
WARNING:
Before removing fuel filter, release fuel pressure from fuel
line.
With Consult II
1. Release fuel pressure using the following procedure.
a. Start engine.
b. Perform“FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE”in“WORK
SUPPORT”mode to release fuel pressure to zero.
c. After engine stalls, crank engine two or three times to
make sure that fuel pressure is released.
d. Turn ignition switch“OFF”.
WARNING:
Use rubber gloves to prevent fuel from contacting the skin
when removing fuel hoses and filter.
2. Loosen fuel hose clamps.
3. Replace fuel filter.

Be careful not to spill fuel over engine compartment.
Place a shop towel to absorb fuel.

Use a high-pressure type fuel filter. Do not use a syn-
thetic resinous fuel filter.

Checking Steering Gear and Linkage
STEERING GEAR

Check gear housing and boots for security, damage or
grease leakage.

Check connection with steering column for security.
: Refer to ST section.
STEERING LINKAGE

Check ball joint, dust cover and other component parts for
security, wear, damage or grease leakage.
Checking Power Steering Fluid and Lines
Check fluid level in reservoir with engine off.
Use“HOT”range at fluid temperatures of 50 to 80°C (122 to
196°F). Use“COLD”range at fluid temperatures of 0 to 30°C (32
to 86°F).
CAUTION:

Do not overfill.

Recommended fluid is Automatic Transmission Fluid
“DEXRONTMIII”type.
CHECKING LINES

Check lines for leaks, cracks, damage, loose connections,
chafing and deterioration.

Check rack boots for accumulation of power steering fluid.
