Apply vacuum slowly and continuously while watch-
ing the gauge. The vacuum should stabilize momen-
tarily at 0.8 - 2.1 kPa (6 - 16 mmHg, 0.2 - 0.6 in.Hg).
lf the vacuum stabilizes (valve opens) below
0.8 kPa {6 mmHg, 0.2 in.Hg) or above 2.1 kPa
(16 mmHg, 0.6 in.Hg), install a new valve and retest.
Move the vacuum pump hose from the vacuum fit-
ting to the pressure fitting, and move the vacuum
gauge hose from the vacuum side to the pressure
side as shown.
Slowlv pressurize the vapor line while watching the
gauge. The pressure should be stabilize momentari
ly above 1.0 kPa (8 mmHg. 0.3 in.Hg).

opens) above '1.0 kPa (8 mmHg, 0.3 in.Hg), the
valve is OK.
. lf the pressure stabilizes below 1.0 kPa (8 mmHg,
0.3 in.Hg), install a new valve and retest.
Apply vacuum slowly and continuously while
watching the gauge. The vacuum should stabilize
momentarily at 0.7 - 2.0 kPa (5 - 15 mmHg, 0.2 - 0.6

. It the pressure momentarily stabilizes (valve
opens) at 1.3 - 4.7 kPa (10 - 35 mmHg, 0.4 - 1.4

Troubleshooting -'96 - 98 Models
Symptom Chart
NOTE;
. Check the engine coolant level. and allow the engine to warm up before troubleshooting.
. Any abnormality must be corrected before continuing the test.
. Because of the precise measurements needed. use a multimeter when testing.
o Before performing any troubleshooting procedures check:- Fuses No. 41 11.5 Al, No. 55 (40 A) in the under-hood fuse/relay box. and No. 17 (7.5 A) in the under-dash fuse/relay
box- Grounds No. G401, G402- Cleanliness and tightness of all connectors

lnstall in the reverse order of removal. Make note of
the following items.
Apply sealant to the grommets.
Do not interchange the inlet and outlet heater
hoses. Make sure that the clamps are secure.
Refill the cooling system with engine coolant
(see section 10).
Connect all cables, and make sure they are prop-
erly adjusted (see page 21-44 (96 - 98 models)
or page 21-45 ('99 - 00 models)).
Make sure that there is no air leakage.
