Engine Oil and Filter Change
WARNING:
New and used engine oil can be hazardous.
Be sure to read ªWARNINGº in General Precaution in Sec-
tion 0A and observe what in written there.
Before draining engine oil, check engine for oil leakage. If any evi-
dence of leakage is found, make sure to correct defective part be-
fore proceeding to the following work.
1) Drain engine oil by removing drain plug.
2) After draining oil, wipe drain plug clean. Reinstall drain plug, and
tighten it securely as specified below.

Steering System Inspection
1) Check steering wheel for play and rattle, holding vehicle in
straight forward condition on the ground.
Steering wheel play ªaº: 0 ± 30 mm (0 ± 1.2 in.)
2) Check universal joints of steering shaft for rattle and damage. If
rattle or damage is found, replace defective part with a new one.
3) Check steering linkage for looseness and damage. Repair or re-
place defective part, if any.
4) Check bolts and nuts for tightness and retighten them as neces-
sary. Repair or replace defective parts, if any.
Refer to table of Tightening Torque Specification in Section 3B
(or 3B1) and 3C (or 3C1) for particular check points.
5) Check boots of steering linkage for damage (leaks, detachment,
tear, dent, etc.). If damage is found, replace it with new one.
If any dent is found on steering rack boots, correct it to original
shape by turning steering wheel to the right or left as far as it
stops and holding it for a few seconds.
6) Check wheel alignment.
NOTE:
For details of wheel alignment, refer to Wheel Alignment in
Section 3A.
ITEM 6-15
Power Steering (P / S) System Inspection (if equipped)
1) Visually check power steering system for fluid leakage and hose
for damage and deterioration.
Repair or replace defective parts, if any.
2) With engine stopped, check fluid level indicated on fluid tank,
which should be between MAX and MIN marks. If it is lower than
MIN, fill fluid up to MAX mark.
NOTE:

Be sure to use an equivalent of DEXRON

-II or DEX-
RON

-III for P / S fluid.

Fluid level should be checked when fluid is cool.

pressor for A / C equipped vehicles and that of P / S pump for ve-
hicles without A / C.
b) Adjust belt tension to above specification.
c) Then tighten adjusting and mounting bolts to specified torque.
[For J20 Type engine]
To adjust P / S pump drive belt tension, refer to ªGENERATOR
BELTº in Section 6H.
[For H25 Type engine]

HYDRAULIC PRESSURE IN P / S CIRCUIT
HYDRAULIC PRESSURE CHECK
1) After cleaning joint of high pressure hose and P / S pump thor-
oughly, disconnect hose from pump and install special tool (oil
pressure gauge, attachment and hose).
Tighten each flare nut to specified torque.
CAUTION:
Take care not to cause damage to A / C condenser during
service operation, if equipped.
Special Tool
(A): 09915-77410 (Oil pressure gauge)
(B): 09915-77420
2) Check each connection for fluid leakage and bleed air.
Refer to ªAIR BLEEDING PROCEDUREº in this section.
3) With engine idling, turn steering wheel and warm up engine till
temperature of fluid in P/S fluid reservoir rises to 50 ± 60
C (122
± 140
F).
4) Check back pressure by measuring hydraulic pressure with en-
gine idling and hands off steering wheel.
Back pressure: Lower than 1000 kPa (10 kg / cm
2, 142 psi)
When back pressure is higher than specified values, check con-
trol valve and piping for clogging.
