CHECKING ENGINE FLUID LEVEL
Check the engine fluid level or condition. If needed, refill
or replace the oil.
Check the engine oil level within engine normal operat-
ing temperature as follows ;
1. After stopping the engine, wait for a few minutes to
accumulate oil into the oil pan.
2. After pulling out the oil level gauge (a), check the oil
level.
3. Clean the oil level gauge and insert the gauge into
guide.
4. After pulling out the oil level gauge again, recheck the
oil level and insert the gauge into guide again.
Important: Oil level should be between “MIN” mark and
“MAX” mark.
5. If oil level is below the “MIN” mark, refill engine oil as
much as the demanded quantify.
Important: If checking oil level under the engine cold
condition, oil is not accumulated into oil pan quickly and
correct level checking can not be performed. Therefore,
wait until temperature reaches the normal operating
condition and check the engine oil level.

CHANGING ENGINE OIL OR OIL
FILTER
Tools Required
09915–47341 Oil Filter Wrench.
When checking engine oil level or condition, if needed,
change engine oil (including the filter) as follows ;
1. After stopping the engine, wait for a few minutes to
accumulate oil into the oil pan.
2. Remove the oil filter cap (b).3. Remove the oil drain plug (c) and draw oil off.
D102A302
4. After drawing oil completely, tighten the oil drain plug
to 30–40 Nm (22–30 lb-ft).
5. Replace the oil filter using the oil filter wrench
09915–47341 (d).
Remove the air cleaner/resonator/snorkel as-
sembly.
After removing the bolts, remove the heat
shield.
Loosen the power steering pump cap screw and
pull the power steering hose into the front.
Remove the oil filter.
Important: Whenever changing engine oil, replace the
oil filter. When replacing new oil filter, apply engine oil on
oil filter sealing.

DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION AND PROCEDURE
COMPRESSION PRESSURE CHECK
Tools Required
09915–64510 Compression Pressure Gauge
Check the compression pressure in the following proce-
dures:
1. Warm up the engine to the normal operating tempera-
ture (Cooling temperature : 80–90C (176–194F)).
2. Stop the engine and then remove the high tension
cable and the spark plug.
3. Disconnect the distributor optical sensor connector.
4. Install the compression pressure gauge 09915–64510
(a) in the hole of spark plug.
D12B301A
5. Disengage the clutch in Neutral (to lighten starting
load on engine upon cranking), and depress the ac-
celerator all the way to make the throttle fully open.
6. Crank the engine with the starting motor, and read the
highest pressure on the compression pressure gauge.
The difference of measured value between cylinders
is 98.06kPa (14.22 psi) and less.
On checking, make the connection perfectly airtight
between the hole of spark plug and compression pres-
sure gauge.

7. After checking, remove the gauge and install the re-
moved parts.
OIL PRESSURE CHECK
Tools Required
09915–77310 Oil Pressure Gauge
Prior to check oil pressure, check the followings:
Check oil level and add if required.
Replace the discolored, deteriorated or diluted oil.
Check any oil leakage and repair the defective parts.
Check the compression pressure in the following proce-
dures:
1. Remove the oil pressure switch (b) from the cylinder
block.
2. Install the oil pressure gauge 09915–77310 (c) to the
mounting place of the oil pressure switch.
D12B302A
3. Start the engine and warm up to the normal operating
temperature.
4. Raise the engine speed up to 2,000rpm and then
read oil pressure.

5. After checking, wrap the threads of oil pressure
switch with a seal tape and tighten it to the specified
torque 12–16 Nm (106–144 lb-in).
6. Start the engine and check oil pressure switch for oil
leakage.

ADJUSTMENT OF VALVE
CLEARANCE
Adjust the valve clearance in the following procedures:
1. Remove the air filter/resonator assembly and the
relevant parts installed on the cylinder head cover.
2. Remove the cylinder head cover hexagon bolts and
remove the cover.
3. Turn over the crankshaft to make No.1 cylinder
matched with the compression top dead center.
(When the camshaft sprocket notch (d) is aligned with
the timing belt rear cover triangle pointer (e) and the
crankshaft sprocket point (f) is aligned with the oil
pump housing point (g), the compression top dead
center is on the ignition sequence for No. 1 cylinder.)

ing the crankshaft in a 360–degree arc. (When the

CHECKING FLUID LEVEL
Check for a leak in the area of transaxle case and seal-
ing and then check fluid level and condition after remov-
ing oil level plug.
1. Operate the engine until it comes to normal operating
temperature(Coolant temperature : 80~90°C (176~
194°F)).
2. Stall the engine and raise the vehicle.
3. Remove the oil level plug and check the fluid level.
4. The fluid should slightly flow out from the oil level plug
hole.
5. If the level is low, add the recommended fluid through
the oil level plug hole until the fluid begins to run out.
6. If the fluid is contaminated or discolored, replace it
with the recommended fluid.
7. Reinstall the oil level plug and tighten it securely.

2. Stall the engine and raise the vehicle.
3. Drain the fluid after removing the drain plug.
4. Reinstall the drain plug and tighten it securely after
coating sealant.
5. Remove the oil level plug and replenish the fluid until
it begins to run out.

CHECKING TRANSAXLE NOISE
Many noises that appear to come from the transaxle
may actually originate with other sources such as tires,
road surfaces, wheel bearings, or engine and exhaust
system.
Identify the cause of any noise before attempting to re-
pair the clutch, the transaxle, or their related linkages.
To verify suspected transaxle noises,
1. Select a smooth, level asphalt road to reduce tyre
and resonant body noise.
2. Drive the vehicle far enough to warm up all the lubri-
cants thoroughly.
3. Record the speed and the gear range of the transaxle
when the noise occurs.
4. Check for noises with the vehicle stopped, but with
the engine running.
5. Determine if the noise occurs while the vehicle oper-
ates in.
Drive – Under a light acceleration or a heavy pull.
Float – Maintaining a constant speed with a light
throttle on a level road.
Coast – With the transaxle in gear and the throttle
partly or fully closed.
All of the above.
CHECKING BEARING NOISE
Differential Side Bearing Noise
Differential side bearing noise and wheel bearing noise
can be confused easily. Since side bearings are pre-
loaded, a differential side bearing noise should not di-
minish much when the differential/transaxle is run with
the wheels off the ground.
Wheel Bearing Noise
Wheel bearings produce a rough growl or grating sound
that will continue when the vehicle is coasting and the
transaxle is in NEUTRAL. Since wheel bearings are not
pre-loaded, a wheel bearing noise should diminish con-
siderably when the wheels are off the ground.
