b. Install reamer bolts from bottom of upper body and install
separate gaskets.
c. Place oil circuit of lower body face up. Install orifice check
spring, orifice check valve and pilot filter.
d. Install lower separate gaskets and separator plates on lower
body.
e. Install and temporarily tighten support plates, fluid tempera-
ture sensor and tube brackets.
f. Temporarily assemble lower and upper bodies, using reamer
bolt as a guide.
+Be careful not to dislocate or drop steel balls, orifice
check spring, orifice check valve and pilot filter.

tion due to receiving external noise, degraded operation
of ICs, etc.
+Keep ECM parts and harnesses dry.
+Before replacing ECM, perform Terminals and Reference
Value inspection and make sure ECM functions properly.
Refer to EC-1068.
+If MI illuminates or blinks irregularly when engine is
running, water may have accumulated in fuel filter. Drain
water from fuel filter. If this does not correct the problem,
perform specified trouble diagnostic procedures.
+After performing each TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS, perform
ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº or ªOverall Function
Checkº.
The DTC should not be displayed in the ª DTC Confirma-
tion Procedureº if the repair is completed. The ªOverall
Function Checkº should be a good result if the repair is
completed.
+When measuring ECM signals with a circuit tester, never
allow the two tester probes to contact.
Accidental contact of probes will cause a short circuit
and damage the ECM power transistor.
+Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring
input/output voltage. Doing so may result in damage to
the ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM
terminals, such as the ground.

PRECAUTIONSZD30DDTi
Precautions (Cont'd)
EC-1009

Air Bleeding
Pump the priming pump to bleed air.
+When air is bled completely, the pumping of the priming
pump suddenly becomes heavy. Stop operation at that
time.
+If it is difficult to bleed air by the pumping of the prim-
ing pump (the pumping of the priming pump does not
become heavy), disconnect the fuel supply hose
between the fuel filter and the injection pump. Then, per-
form the operation described above, and make sure that
fuel comes out. (Use a pan, etc. so as not to spill fuel.
Do not let fuel get on engine and other parts.) After that,
connect the hose, and then bleed air again.

BASIC SERVICE PROCEDUREZD30DDTi
EC-1031

Basic Inspection
Precaution:
Perform Basic Inspection without electrical or mechanical
loads applied;
+Shift lever is in neutral position,
+Heat up switch is OFF,
+Headlamp switch is OFF,
+Air conditioner switch is OFF,
+Rear defogger switch is OFF,
+Steering wheel is in the straight-ahead position, etc.
1 INSPECTION START
1. Check service records for any recent repairs that may indicate a related problem.
2. Check the current need for scheduled maintenance, especially for fuel filter and air cleaner filter. Refer to MA section.
3. Open engine hood and check the following:
+Harness connectors for improper connections
+Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks, or improper connections
+Wiring for improper connections, pinches, or cuts
