7. Perform the following:
. Clean the areas where the driveshaft(s) and theintermediate shaft contact the transmission (dif_ferential) thoroughly with solvent or carburetorcteaner, and dry with compressed air.. Check that the set rings on the ends of the drive_shaft and intermediate shaft click into place.CAUTION: Use new set rings,. Adjust the shift cable (see section 14).. Adjust the throttle cable (see section 11).. Adjust the cruise control cable (see section 23).. Refill the engine with engine oil (see page 8-6).. Refill the transmission with fluid (see section 13,14).
. Refill the radiator with engine coolant (see page10-7).
. Bleed air from the cooling system with the heatervalve open (see page j0-7).
. Clean the battery posts and cable terminals withsandpaper, assemble them, then apply grease toprevent corrosaon.. Inspect for fuel leakage (see section j l).After assembling the fuel line, turn on l) the igni_tion switch (do not operate the starter) so that thefuel pump runs for approximately two secondsand the fuel line pressurizes. Repeat this opera_taon two or three times, then check for fuel leak_age at any point in the fuel line,

and engage the intake secondary rocker arm.
Visually check the engagement of the synchronizing

The synchronizing piston can be seen in the gap
between the secondary and primary rocker arms,

NOTE:
. When the timing plate is pushed up, it releases
the timing piston, letting the return spring move
the synchronizing piston to its original position.

NOTE:
. Replace the timing belt at 105,000 miles (168.000 km)
according to the maintenance schedule (normal con-
ditions/severe conditions).
lf the vehicle is regularly driven in one or more of the
followlng conditions, replace the timing belt at 60.000
miles (U.S.A.) 100,000 km {Canada).
.In very high temperatures (over 110'F.43'C)
. In very low temperatures (under -20'F, -29"C)'
! Turn the crankshaft pulley so the No. 1 piston is at
top dead center (TDC) before removing the belt (see
page 6'21).
. Inspect the water pump before installing the timing
belt {see Page 10-14).
1. Remove the splash shield (see page 5-7).
