A: INSPECTION
1. STEERING WHEEL
1) Set the steering wheel in a straight-ahead posi-
tion, and check the wheel spokes to make sure
they are correctly set in their specified positions.
2) Lightly turn the steering wheel to the right and
left to determine the point where front wheels start
to move.
Measure the distance of the movement of steering
wheel at the outer periphery of wheel.
Steering wheel free play:
0 — 17 mm (0 — 0.67 in)
Move the steering wheel vertically toward the shaft
to ascertain if there is play in the direction.
Maximum permissible play:
0.5 mm (0.020 in)
3) Drive the vehicle and check the following items.
(1) Steering force:
The effort required for steering should be
smooth and even at all points, and should not
vary.
(2) Pull to one side:
Steering wheel should not be pulled to either
side while driving on a level surface.
(3) Wheel runout:
Steering wheel should not be runout.
(4) Return factor:
Steering wheel should return to its original posi-
tion after it has been turned and then released.
2. STEERING SHAFT JOINT
When the steering wheel free play is excessive,
disconnect the universal joint of steering shaft and
check it for any play and yawing torque (at the point
of the crossing direction). Also inspect for any dam-
age to sealing or worn serrations. If the joint is
loose, retighten the mounting bolts to the specified
torque.
Tightening torque:
24 N·m (2.4 kgf-m, 17.4 ft-lb)
3. GEARBOX
1) With wheels placed in the direction of straight
ahead, turn the steering wheel 90° in both the right
and left directions.
While the steering wheel is being rotated, check for
looseness in gearbox.
Tightening torque:
59 N·m (6.0 kgf-m, 43.4 ft-lb)
2) Check the boot for damage, cracks or deteriora-
tion.
3) With the vehicle on a level surface, quickly turn
the steering wheel to the right and left.
While the steering wheel is being rotated, check the
gear backlash. If any unusual noise is noticed, ad-
just the gear backlash in the following manner.
(1) Tighten the adjusting screw to 7.4 N·m (0.75
kgf-m, 5.4 ft-lb) and then loosen. Repeat this op-
eration twice.

(0.75 kgf-m, 5.4 ft-lb) and back off 25°.
(3) Apply Liquid gasket to at least 1/3 of entire
perimeter of adjusting screw thread.
(4) Install the lock nut. While holding the adjust-
ing screw with a wrench, tighten the lock nut us-
ing ST.
ST 926230000 SPANNER
Tightening torque (Lock nut):
39 N·m (4.0 kgf-m, 29 ft-lb)
Hold the adjusting screw with a wrench to pre-
vent it from turning it, while tightening the lock
nut.
4. TIE-ROD
1) Check the tie-rod and tie-rod ends for bends,
scratches or other damage.
2) Check the connections of knuckle ball joints for
play, inspect for damage on dust seals, and check
free play of ball studs. If the castle nut is loose, re-
tighten it to the specified torque, then tighten further
up to 60° until the cotter pin hole is aligned.
Tightening torque:
27 N·m (2.75 kgf-m, 19.9 ft-lb)3) Check the lock nut on tie-rod end for tightness. If
it is loose, retighten it to the specified torque.
Tightening torque:
83 N·m (8.5 kgf-m, 61.5 ft-lb)
5. POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
NOTE:
Check at power steering fluid temperature 20°C
(68°F); read the fluid level on the “COLD” side.
Check at power steering fluid temperature 80°C
(176°F); read the fluid level on the “HOT” side.
1) Place the vehicle with engine stopped on a flat
and level surface.
2) Check the fluid level using the scale on the out-
side of reservoir tank (A). If the level is below “MIN”
(B), add fluid to bring it up to “MAX” (C).
NOTE:
If the fluid level is at “MAX” level or above, drain flu-
id to keep the level in specified range of indicator by
using a syringe or the like.
Recommended fluid:
Dexron III
Fluid capacity:
0.72 (0.7 US qt, 0.6 Imp qt)
6. POWER STEERING FLUID FOR LEAKS
Inspect the underside of oil pump and gearbox for
power steering system, hoses, piping and their
couplings for fluid leaks.
If fluid leaks are found, correct them by retightening
their fitting bolts (or nuts) and/or replacing their
parts.
CAUTION:
Wipe the leakage fluid off after correcting flu-
id leaks, or a wrong diagnosis is taken later.
Also pay attention to clearances between
hoses (or pipings) and other parts when in-
specting fluid leaks.

perimeter
