If insufficient, check that no leaks are found. Then
add the necessary amount of the specified power
steering fluid.
43.FLUID LEAK CHECK
Check the entire areas of the vehicle for any trace
of coolant/oil/fluid leaks.
44.WATER LEAK TEST
Spray the vehicle with water and check that no wa-
ter enters the passenger compartment.
Before performing the water leakage test, re-
move anything that may obstruct the operation or
which must be kept dry.
Close all windows completely, and then close all
doors tightly. Close the hood before starting the
test.
Connect a hose to a tap, and spray water on the
vehicle. The rate of water discharge must be ap-
prox. 20 — 252 (5.3 — 6.6 US gal, 4.4 — 5.5 Imp
gal) per minute.
When spraying water on areas adjacent to the floor
and wheel house, increase the pressure. When di-
recting water on areas other than the floor portion
and wheel house, decrease the pressure. But the
force of water must be made strong occasionally by
pressing the end of the hose.
NOTE:
Be sure to keep the hose at least 10 cm (3.9 in)
from the vehicle.
Check the following areas:
Front window and body framework mating por-
tion
Door mating portions
Glass mating portions
Rear quarter window mating portions

45.APPEARANCE CHECK 2
1) When vehicle body is covered with protective
film (wrap guard), peel it off.
NOTE:
Use of steam eases peeling off the wrap guard.
When performing on the vehicles left for a long
time, or during low temperature period, sprinkle
some water heated to 50 — 60°C (122 — 140°F)
over the vehicle to raise its surface temperature be-
fore peeling off the wrap guard.
Do not use the water heated to over 60°C (140°F).
If the adhesive remains on the coated surface,
rub the portion with a flannel rag, etc. soaked with a
coat of coating wax or a solvent, such as oil ben-
zene and IPA, and then wipe it off.
Avoid adhesion of the solvent to resin or rubber
components. Do not use coating wax or a solvent
while the component surface temperature is high
due to hot weather, etc.
If the coated surface is swollen out due to seams
or moisture, expose the vehicle to the sun light for a
few hours. Otherwise, heat the portion with seams
or moisture using a dryer, etc.
Dispose of the peeled wrap guard as burnable in-
dustrial garbage.
2) Check the whole vehicle body for stains, flaking,
damage caused by transportation, rust, dirt, cracks,
or blistering.
NOTE:
It is better to determine an inspection pattern in
order to avoid missing an area, since the total in-
spection area is wide.
It is desirable not to make corrections to the body
paint unless absolutely needed. However, if any
corrections are required to remove scratches or
rust, the area to be corrected must be limited as
much as possible. Re-painting and spray painting
must be avoided whenever possible.
3) Carefully check each window glass for scratch-
es. Slight damage may be removed by polishing
with cerium oxide. (Half-fill a cup with cerium oxide,
and add warm water to it. Then agitate the content
until it turn to wax. Apply this wax to a soft cloth,
and polish the glass.)4) Check each portion of the vehicle body and un-
derside components for the formation of rust. If rust
is discovered, remove it with #80 — #180 emery
paper, and treat the surface with rust preventive.
After this treatment is completed, flush the portion
thoroughly, and prepare the surface for repair
painting.
5) Check each portion of the body and all of the
chrome parts for deformation or distortion. Also
check each lamp lens for cracks.
