POOR FUEL ECONOMY SYMPTOM
DEFINITIONS: Fuel economy, as measured by an
actual road test, is noticeably lower than expected. Also,
economy is noticeably lower than it was on this vehicle
at one time, as previousl shown by an actual road test.
(Larger than standard tires will cause odomete
r
readings to be incorrect, and that may cause fuel
economy to appear poor when it is actually normal.)

Engine Noisy
Abnormal engine noise often consists of various
noises originating in rotating parts, sliding parts and
other moving parts of the engine. It is, therefore,
advisable to locate the source of noise systematically.

Condition Possible cause Correction
Noise from crank journals or from
crank bearings
(Faulty crank journals and crank
bearings usually make dull noise
that becomes more evident when
accelerating) Oil clearance increased due to
worn crank journals or crank
bearings Replace crank bearings and
crankshaft or regrind crankshaft
and install the over size bearing
Crankshaft out of round Replace crank bearings and
crankshaft or regrind crankshaft
and install the over size bearing
Crank bearing seized Replace crank bearings and
crankshaft or regrind crankshaft
and install the over size bearing

cylinder is shorted out.

Condition Possible cause Correction
Timing belt noise Timing belt tension is incorrect Replace pusher or adjust the
tension pulley or replace timing
belt
Tensioner bearing defective Replace
Timing belt defective Replace
Timing wheels defective Replace
Timing belt comes in contact with
timing cover Replace timing belt and timing
cover

Engine Oil Pressure Check
1. Check for dirt, gasoline or water in the engine
oil.
a. Check the viscosity of the oil.
b. Change the oil if the viscosity is outside the
specified standard.
c. Refer to the "Maintenance and Lubrication"
section of this manual.
2. Check the engine oil level.
The level should fall somewhere between the
"ADD" and the "FULL" marks on the oil level
dipstick.
If the oil level does not reach the "ADD" mark on
the oil level dipstick, engine oil must be added. 3. Remove the oil pressure unit.
4. Install an oil pressure gauge.
5. Start the engine and allow the engine to reach
normal operating temperature (About 80
C).
6. Measure the oil pressure.
Oil pressure should be:
150 kPa(21.8 psi) at idle speed.
7. Stop the engine.
8. Remove the oil pressure gauge
9. Install the oil pressure unit.
10. Start the engine and check for leaks.
