CHECKING COMPRESSION PRESSURE
1. Warm up engine thoroughly. Then, stop it.
2. Using CONSULT-II, make sure no error codes are indicated for self-diagnosis items. Refer toEC-672,
"Basic Inspection".
lDo not disconnect CONSULT-II until the end of this operation; it will be used to check engine rpm and
for error detection at the end of this operation.
3. Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
4. Remove the following parts.
lCharge air cooler (Refer toEM-114, "Removal and Installation".)
5. To prevent fuel from being injected during inspection, remove
fuel supply pump fuse [ENG CONT (20A)] from fuse box on the
left side of engine compartment.
lAmong marks on fuse box, [ENG CONT 3 (20A)] is for fuel
supply pump fuse.
6. Remove glow plugs from all the cylinders. Refer toEM-130,
"Removal and Installation".
CAUTION:
lBefore removal, clean the surrounding area to prevent
entry of any foreign materials into the engine.
lCarefully remove glow plugs to prevent any damage or
breakage.
lHandle with care to avoid applying any shock to glow plugs.
7. Install adapter to installation holes of glow plugs and connect
compression gauge for diesel engine.
8. Connect battery negative terminal.
9. Set the ignition switch to “START” and crank. When gauge
pointer stabilizes, read compression pressure and engine rpm.
Repeat the above steps for each cylinder.
lAlways use a fully-charged battery to obtain specified engine
speed.
Unit:kPa(bar,kg/cm2, psi)/rpm
lWhen engine rpm is out of the specified range, check the specific gravity of battery liquid. Measure
again under corrected conditions.
lIf engine rpm exceeds the limit, check valve clearance and combustion chamber components (valves,
valve seats, cylinder head gaskets, piston rings, pistons, cylinder bores, cylinder block upper and lower
surfaces) and measure again.
lIf compression pressure is low in some cylinders, apply engine oil from glow plug installation hole. Then
check pressure again.
–If compression pressure becomes normal after applying oil, piston ring may be worn or damaged.
Check piston ring for malfunction. If any, replace piston ring.
–If compression pressure is still low after applying oil, valve may be malfunctioning. Check valve for mal-
function. If contact malfunction is found, replace valve or valve seat.
lIf compression pressure in adjacent two cylinders is low after applying oil, pressure may be leaking
from gasket. In this case, replace cylinder head gasket.

dimension shown in the figure.
lDifferent parts are used for valve location, Identify by the rub-
ber color.
4. Install valve spring seats.
5. Install valves.
lInstall the valves with bigger outer diameter to intake valve
side.
lNote that valve layout here is different from that of conventional engine.

lWhen installing valve spring, make sure that a smaller pitch
side (identification paint-applied side) faces the cylinder head.
7. Install valve spring retainers.
8. Using valve spring compressor, compress valve springs.
Then install valve collets using magnetic hand.
lAfter installing valve collets, tap the stem end using a plastic
hammer, and check the installation status.

Disassembly and AssemblyEES00075
DISASSEMBLY
1. Install strut attachment to strut and fix it in a vise.
CAUTION:
When installing strut attachment, wrap a shop cloth around
strut to protect it from damage.
2. Slightly loosen piston rod lock nut.
WAR NIN G:
Do not remove piston rod lock nut completely. If it is
removed completely, coil spring jumps out and may cause
serious damage or injury.
3. Compress coil spring using a spring compressor.
WAR NIN G:
Make sure that the pawls of the two spring compressors are firmly hooked on the spring. The
spring compressors must be tightened alternately so as not to tilt the spring.
4. After making sure coil spring is free between upper and lower seats after Step 3. Remove piston rod lock
nut.
