0B-10 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
NOTE:
Engine oil capacity is specified. However, note that the
amount of oil required when actually changing oil may
somewhat differ from the data in the table depending on
various conditions (temperature, viscosity, etc.).
7) Check oil filter and drain plug for oil leakage.
8) Start engine and run it for three minutes. Stop it and wait five min-
utes before checking oil level. Add oil, as necessary, to bring oil
level to FULL level mark on dipstick.
NOTE:
Step 1) ± 7) outlined above must be performed with ENGINE
NOT RUNNING. For step 8), be sure to have adequate ven-
tilation while engine is running.
ITEM 1-5
Engine Coolant Change
WARNING:
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not remove radia-
tor cap while engine and radiator are still hot. Scalding fluid
and steam can be blown out under pressure if cap is taken
off too soon.
1) Remove radiator cap when engine is cool.
2) Loosen radiator drain plug to drain coolant.
3) Remove reservoir, which is on the side of radiator, and drain.
4) Tighten plug securely. Also reinstall reservoir.
5) Fill radiator with specified amount of coolant, and run engine for
2 or 3 minutes at idle. This drives out any air which may still be
trapped within cooling system. STOP ENGINE. Add coolant as
necessary until coolant level reaches the filler throat of radiator.
Reinstall radiator cap.

MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 0B-19
11) Check coil spring, upper rod, lower rod and lateral rod for de-
formation and damage.
12) Check upper rod, lower rod and lateral rod bushings and bump
stopper for wear, damage and deterioration.
13) Check other suspension parts for damage, loose or missing
parts; also for parts showing signs of wear or lack of lubrication.
Replace any parts found defective in steps 1) to 13).
ITEM 6-9
Propeller Shafts and Drive Shafts Inspection
1) Check universal joint and spline of propeller shaft for rattle. If
rattle is found, replace defective part with a new one.
2) Check propeller shaft (front & rear) flange yoke bolts for tight-
ness, and retighten them as necessary.
Refer to Section 4B for tightening torque.
3) Check drive axle boots (wheel side and differential side) for
leaks, detachment, tear or other damage.
Replace boot as necessary.

Change
1) Inspect transmission case for evidence of fluid leakage.
Repair leaky point, if any.
2) Make sure that vehicle is placed level for fluid level check.
3) Change fluid. For its procedure, refer to On-vehicle service in
Section 7B1.
Fluid cooler hose change
Replace inlet and outlet hoses of cooler hose and their clamps.
For replacement procedure, refer to On-vehicle service in Section
7B1.
ITEM 6-12 and 6-13
Transfer and Differential Oil Inspection and Change
Inspection
1) Check transfer case and differential for evidence of oil leakage.
Repair leaky point if any.
2) Make sure that vehicle is placed level for oil level check.
3) Remove level plug of transfer or differentials (front and rear) and
check oil level.
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
referring to Section 7D, 7B or 7F.
4) Tighten level plug to specified torque.
Refer to Section 7D, 7E or 7F for tightening torque.
Change
Change transfer oil or differentials oil with new specified oil referring
to Section 7D, 7E and 7F respectively.

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 ªHIº position for this check.

FLOW CONTROL VALVE
As the discharge rate of the P/S pump increases in proportion to the
pump revolution speed, a flow control valve is added to control it so
that the optimum amount of fluid for steering operation is supplied
according to the engine speed (driving condition).
Described below is its operation at different engine speed.
