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 to EC-905,
"Basic Inspection" (WITH EURO-ODB) or EC-1231, "Basic Inspection" (WITHOUT EURO-ODB).
Do 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 charge air cooler. Refer to EM-135, "
Removal and Installation"
5. To prevent fuel from being injected during inspection, remove
fuel pump fuse [ENG CONT 2 (20A)] from fuse box on the left
side of engine room.
Among marks on fuse box, [ENG CONT 2 (20A)] is for fuel
pump fuse.
6. Remove glow plugs from all the cylinders. Refer to EM-152,
"Removal and Installation" .
CAUTION:
Before removal, clean the surrounding area to prevent
entry of any foreign materials into engine.
Carefully remove glow plugs to prevent any damage or
breakage.
Handle with care to avoid applying any shock to glow plugs.
7. Install compression gauge adapter (special service tool) to
installation holes of glow plugs and connect compression gauge
for diesel engine.
8. Connect battery negative terminal.
9. With accelerator pedal fully depressed, turn ignition switch to
“START” for cranking. When the gauge pointer stabilizes, read
the compression pressure and engine rpm. Perform these steps
to check each cylinder.
Always use a fully-charged battery to obtain specified engine
speed.
Compression pressure
Unit: kPa (bar, kg/cm2 , psi)/rpm
When engine rpm is out of the specified range, check the specific gravity of battery liquid. Measure
again under corrected conditions.
If 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.
If 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 engine oil, piston ring may be worn or dam-
aged. Check piston ring for malfunction. If any, replace piston ring.
–If compression pressure is still low after applying engine oil, valve may be malfunctioning. Check valve
for malfunction. If contact malfunction is found, replace valve or valve seat.
If compression pressure in adjacent two cylinders is low after applying engine oil, pressure may be
leaking from gasket. In this case, replace cylinder head gasket.

Lift up cylinder head assembly to avoid interference with
dowel pins located between the cylinder block and cylinder
head, and remove cylinder head assembly.
CAUTION:
Remove glow plug in advance to avoid damage as the tip
of the glow plug projects from the bottom of cylinder
head, or, place wood blocks beneath both ends of cylin-
der head to keep the cylinder bottom from any contact.
For glow plug removal, the following shall be noted.
CAUTION:
To avoid breakage, do not remove glow plug unless necessary.
Perform continuity test with glow plug installed.
Keep glow plug from any impact. [Replace if dropped from a height 10 cm (3.94 in) or higher.]
Do not use air impact wrench.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Cylinder Head Bolt Deformation
Using micrometer, measure the outer diameters d1 and d2 of
bolt thread as shown in the figure.
If the necking point can be identified, set it as measuring point
d1.
Calculate the difference between d1 and d2.
If it exceeds the limit, replace cylinder head bolt.
Cylinder Head Distortion
1. Wipe off oil and remove water scale (like deposit), gasket, sealer, carbon, etc. with scraper.
CAUTION:
Use utmost care not to allow gasket debris to enter passages for oil or water.
2. At each of several locations on bottom surface of cylinder head,
measure distortion in six directions.
If it exceeds the limit, replace cylinder head.

INSTALLATION
Before installation, remove old liquid gasket from mating surface of all liquid gasket applied parts.
1. Install cylinder head gasket.
Cylinder head gasket to be installed is selected by its thickness through the following procedure.
–When replacing gasket alone
Install a gasket with same thickness as that of the one removed.
Identify the thickness of gasket by the number of cut-outs on
the rear RH side.
*: Measured with head bolts tightened
Gasket thickness can be identified at the location shown in
the figure by the numbers of cut-outs before removal.
–When the following parts have been repaired/replaced:
With cylinder block upper surface and/or crankshaft pin journal ground
With cylinder block, pistons, connecting rods, and/or crankshaft replaced
a. Set piston at a point close to TDC.
b. Set the dial gauge at the location as shown in the figure. Turning
crankshaft gradually, set the gauge scale to “0” where the piston
protrusion is maximized.
c. Move the dial gauge stand so that the tip of dial gauge can con-
tact cylinder block. Read the difference.
d. Measure two points from each cylinder in order to obtain each
mean value of them. Choose a properly thick gasket corre-
sponding the highest number of the four values.
