Open the throttle fully, then crank the engine with
the starter motor and measure the compression.
Compression Pressure
Above 930 kpa (9.5 kgf/cm', 135 psi)
Measure the compression on the remaining
cylinders,
Maximum vadation
Within 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm', 28 psi)
lf the compression is not within specifications,
check these items, then remeasure the
compressron.

21. Clean the battery posts and cable terminals with
sandpaper, then assemble them and apply grease
to prevent corrosion.
22. After installation, checkthatall tubes, hosesand
connectors are installed correctly.
23. Inspectforfuel leaks. Turn the ignition switch ON
{ll) {do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump
runs for about 2 seconds and pressurizes the fuel
line. Repeat thls operation two or three times, then
check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.
24. Refillthe radiator with engine coolant, and bleed
air from the cooling system with the heater valve
open (see page 10-6).
