MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 0B-17
ITEM 6-7
Manual Transmission Oil Inspection and Change
[Inspection]
1) Inspect transmission case for evidence of oil leakage.
Repair leaky point if any.
2) Make sure that vehicle is placed level for oil level check.
3) Remove oil level plug of transmission.
4) Check oil level.
Oil level can be checked roughly by means of filler / level plug
hole. That is, if oil flows out of level plug hole or if oil level is found
up to hole when level plug is removed, oil is properly filled.
If oil is found insufficient, pour specified oil up to level hole.
For specified oil, refer to description of oil change under ON-VE-
HICLE SERVICE in SECTION 7A or 7A1.
5) Tighten level plug to specified torque.
[Change]
1) Place the vehicle level and drain oil by removing drain plug.
2) Apply sealant to drain plug and tighten drain plug to specified
torque.
3) Pour specified oil up to level hole.
4) Tighten filler plug to specified torque.
For recommended oil, its amount and tightening torque data, re-
fer to ON-VEHICLE SERVICE of SECTION 7A or 7A1.
ITEM 6-8
Rear Differential Oil Inspection and Change
(4WD vehicle only)
[Inspection]
1) Inspect rear differential case for evidence of oil leakage.
Repair leaky point, if any.
2) Make sure that the vehicle is placed level for oil level check.
3) Remove level plug (1) of differential. Oil level can be checked
roughly by means of level plug hole.
That is, if oil flows out of level plug hole or if oil level is found up
to hole when level plug is removed, oil is properly filled.
If oil is found insufficient, pour specified amount of specified oil
as given in SECTION 7E.
4) Tighten it to specified torque.
[Change]
Place the vehicle level and drain oil by removing drain plug (2). Pour
specified amount of specified oil, tighten drain plug and filler plug
to specified torque, referring to ON-VEHICLE SERVICE in SEC-
TION 7E.

MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 0B-21
[Parking brake]
Check that lever has proper travel.
Check to ensure that parking brake is fully effective
when the vehicle is stopped on the safe slope and
brake lever is pulled all the way.
Steering

Check to ensure that steering wheel is free from in-
stability, or abnormally heavy feeling.

Check that the vehicle does not wander or pull to
one side.
Engine

Check that engine responds readily at all speeds.

Check that engine is free from abnormal noise and
abnormal vibration.
Body, Wheels and Power Transmitting System
Check that body, wheels and power transmitting sys-
tem are free from abnormal noise and abnormal
vibration or any other abnormal condition.
Meters and Gauge
Check that speedometer, odometer, fuel meter, tem-
perature gauge, etc. are operating accurately.
Lights
Check that all lights operate properly.
Windshield Defroster
Periodically check that air comes out from defroster
outlet when operating heater or air conditioning.
Set fan switch lever to “HI” position and mode lever to
defroster position for this check. WARNING:
With vehicle parked on a fairly steep slope,
make sure nothing is in the way downhill to
avoid any personal injury or property damage.
Be prepared to apply regular brake quickly
even if vehicle should start to move.

IGNITION SYSTEM 6F-5
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
IGNITION SPARK TEST
1) Disconnect injector coupler at throttle body side.
WARNING:
Without disconnection of injector coupler, combustible gas
may come out from spark plug holes during this test and
may get ignited in engine room.
2) Remove spark plugs and connect them to high-tension cords,
and then ground spark plugs.
3) Crank engine and check if each spark plug sparks.
4) If no spark is emitted, inspect high-tension cords, spark plugs,
ignition coil, distributor, etc.
HIGH-TENSION CORDS
1) Remove high-tension cord at ignition coil while gripping its cap.
2) Remove distributor cap installed with high-tension cords.
3) Remove high-tension cord clamp from cylinder head cover.
4) Pull out high-tension cords from spark plugs while gripping each
cap.
CAUTION:

Removal of high-tension cords together with clamps
will be recommended so as not to damage their inside
wire (resistive conductor).

For the same reason, pull out each connection by grip-
ping cap portion.
5) Measure resistance of high-tension cord by using ohmmeter.
High-tension cord resistance: 10 – 22 kΩ/ m (3.0 – 6.7 kΩ/ft)
