0A-6 GENERAL INFORMATION
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
The WARNING and CAUTION below describe some general precautions that you should observe when servicing
a vehicle. These general precautions apply to many of the service procedures described in this manual, and they
will not necessarily be repeated with each procedure to which they apply.
WARNING:

Whenever raising a vehicle for service, be sure to follow the instructions under “VEHICLE LIFTING
POINTS” on SECTION 0A.

When it is necessary to do service work with the engine running, make sure that the parking brake
is set fully and the transmission is in Neutral (for manual transmission vehicles) or Park (for automatic
transmission vehicles). Keep hands, hair, clothing, tools, etc. away from the fan and belts when the
engine is running.

When it is necessary to run the engine indoors, make sure that the exhaust gas is forced outdoors.

Do not perform service work in areas where combustible materials can come in contact with a hot
exhaust system. When working with toxic or flammable materials (such as gasoline and refrigerant),
make sure that the area you work in is well-ventilated.

To avoid getting burned, keep away from hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust manifold, tail-
pipe, muffler, etc.

New and used engine oil can be hazardous. Children and pets may be harmed by swallowing new or
used oil. Keep new and used oil and used engine oil filters away from children and pets.
Continuous contact with used engine oil has been found to cause [skin] cancer in laboratory animals.
Brief contact with used oil may irritate skin. To minimize your exposure to used engine oil, wear a
long-sleeve shirt and moisture-proof gloves (such as dish washing gloves) when changing engine
oil. If engine oil contacts your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water. Launder any clothing or
rags if wet with oil, recycle or properly dispose of used oil and filters.

Make sure the bonnet is fully closed and latched before driving. If it is not, it can fly up unexpectedly
during driving, obstructing your view and resulting in an accident.
CAUTION:

Before staring any service work, cover fenders, seats and
any other parts that are likely to get scratched or stained dur-
ing servicing. Also, be aware that what you wear (e.g. but-
tons) may cause damage to the vehicle’s finish.

When performing service to electrical parts that does not re-
quire use of battery power, disconnect the negative cable of
the battery.

Battery Electrolyte Level Check
Check that the electrolyte level of all battery cells is
between the upper and lower level lines on the case.
If battery is equipped with built-in indicator, check bat-
tery condition by the indicator.
Accelerator Pedal Operation
Check that pedal operates smoothly without getting
caught or interfered by and other part.
Engine Start
Check engine start for readiness.
On automatic transmission vehicles, try to start the
engine in each gear. The starter should crank only in
“P” (Park) or “N” (Neutral).
On manual transmission vehicles, place the shift le-
ver in “Neutral,” depress clutch pedal fully and try to
start.
Exhaust System Check
Check for leakage, cracks or loose supports.
Clutch (For manual transmission)
Check for the following.

Clutch is completely released when depressing
clutch pedal.

No slipping clutch occurs when releasing pedal and
accelerating.

Clutch itself is free from any abnormal condition.
Gearshift or Select Lever (Transmission)
Check gear shift or select lever for smooth shifting to
all positions and for good performance of transmis-
sion in any position.
With automatic transmission equipped vehicle, also
check that shift indicator indicates properly according
to which position select lever is shifted to.
CAUTION:
With automatic transmission equipped ve-
hicle, make sure that vehicle is at complete
stop when shifting select lever to “P” range
position and release all brakes.
Brake
[Foot brake]
Check the following;

that brake pedal has proper travel,

that brake works properly,

that it is free from noise,

that vehicle does not pull to one side when brake is
applied,

and that brake does not drag.
WARNING:
When carrying out road tests, select a safe
place where no man or no running vehicle is
seen so as to prevent any accident.
WARNING:
Before performing the following check, be
sure to have enough room around the vehicle.
Then, firmly apply both the parking brake and
the regular brakes. Do not use the accelerator
pedal. If the engine starts, be ready to turn off
the ignition promptly. Take these precautions
because the car could move without warning
and possibly cause personal injury or proper-
ty damage.

FUEL PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE
CAUTION:
This work must not be done when engine is hot. If done so,
it may cause adverse effect to catalyst.
After making sure that engine is cold, release fuel pressure as fol-
lows.
1) Place transmission gear shift lever in “Neutral” (Shift selector le-
ver to “P” range for A / T model), set parking brake, and block
drive wheels.
2) Remove relay box cover.
3) Disconnect fuel pump relay (1) from relay box (2).
4) Remove fuel filler cap to release fuel vapor pressure in fuel tank
and then reinstall it.
5) Start engine and run it till it stops for lack of fuel. Repeat cranking
engine 2-3 times for about 3 seconds each time to dissipate fuel
pressure in lines. Fuel connections are now safe for servicing.
6) Upon completion of servicing, connect fuel pump relay to relay
box and install relay box cover.
FUEL LEAKAGE CHECK PROCEDURE
After performing any service on fuel system, check to make sure
that there are no fuel leakages as follows.
1) Turn ON ignition switch for 2 seconds (to operate fuel pump) and
then turn it OFF.
Repeat this (ON and OFF) 3 or 4 times and apply fuel pressure
to fuel line. (till fuel pressure is felt by hand placed on fuel feed
hose.)
2) In this state, check to see that there are no fuel leakages from
any part of fuel system.

SCAN TOOL DATA
As the data values given below are standard values estimated on the basis of values obtained from the normally
operating vehicles by using a scan tool, use them as reference values. Even when the vehicle is in good condition,
there may be cases where the checked value does not fall within each specified data range. Therefore, judgment
as abnormal should not be made by checking with these data alone.
Also, conditions in the below table that can be checked by the scan tool are those detected by ECM (PCM) and
output from ECM (PCM) as commands and there may be cases where the engine or actuator is not operating (in
the condition) as indicated by the scan tool. Be sure to use the timing light to check the ignition timing.
NOTE:

With the generic scan tool, only star () marked data in the table below can be read.

When checking the data with the engine running at idle or racing, be sure to shift M / T gear to the neutral
gear position and A / T gear to the “Park” position and pull the parking brake fully. Also, if nothing or “no
load” is indicated, turn OFF A / C, all electric loads, P / S and all the other necessary switches.
