The following tables show the normal maintenance schedule. Depending upon weather and atmospheric
conditions, varying road surfaces, individual driving habits and vehicle usage, additional or more frequent
maintenance may be required.
Periodic maintenance beyond the last period shown on the tables requires similar maintenance.

(2) Periodic maintenance is not required. However, if valve noise increases, check valve clearance.
HMaintenance items with ªHº should be performed more frequently according to ªMaintenance Under Severe Driv-

(2) First replace at 100,000 km (60,000 miles)/60 months, then every 60,000 km (36,000 miles)/36 months. After first
replacement, perform ªIº (checking the mixture ratio and correcting the mixture ratio if necessary) at the middle

(3) If valve noise increases, check valve clearance.
(4) If engine power decreases, black exhaust smoke is emitted or engine noise increases, check injection nozzles and
if necessary, replace injection nozzle assembly.
