CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTIC)
Diagnostic Procedure with Symptom
Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK INHIBITOR SWITCH CIRCUIT.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the inhibitor switch harness
connector.
3) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
4) Turn the cruise control main switch to ON.
5) Measure the voltage between harness con-
nector terminal and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal
(T7) No. 12 (+) — Chassis ground (
−): Is the voltage more than 10 V? Go to step 2.Check the harness
for open or short
between inhibitor
switch and cruise
control module.
2 CHECK INHIBITOR SWITCH CIRCUIT.
1) Turn the cruise control main switch and
ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the starter motor harness con-
nector.
3) Measure the resistance between inhibitor
switch harness connector terminal and starter
motor harness connector terminal.
Connector & terminal
(T7) No. 7 — (B14) No. 1: Is the resistance less than 10
Ω?Go to step 3.Repair the har-
ness.
3 CHECK INHIBITOR SWITCH.
Remove and check the inhibitor switch. to CC-12, Inhibitor Switch (AT model).>Is the inhibitor switch OK? Inhibitor switch cir-
cuit is OK.Replace the inhibi-
tor switch.

Compression
2. Compression
A: INSPECTION
CAUTION:
After warming-up, engine becomes very hot. Be
careful not to burn yourself during measure-
ment.
1) After warming-up the engine, turn the ignition
switch to OFF.
2) Make sure that the battery is fully charged.
3) Release the fuel pressure. 47, RELEASING OF FUEL PRESSURE, OPERA-
TION, Fuel.>
4) Remove all the spark plugs. 5, REMOVAL, Spark Plug.>
5) Fully open the throttle valve.
6) Check the starter motor for satisfactory perfor-
mance and operation.
7) Hold the compression gauge tight against spark
plug hole.
NOTE:
When using a screw-in type compression gauge,
the screw (put into cylinder head spark plug hole)
should be less than 18 mm (0.71 in) long.
8) Crank the engine by means of starter motor, and
then read the maximum value on the gauge when
the pointer is steady.
9) Perform at least two measurements per cylinder,
and make sure that the values are correct.
Compression (350 rpm and fully open throttle):
Standard;
1,275 kPa (13.0 kgf/cm
2, 185 psi)
Limit;
1,020 kPa (10.4 kgf/cm
2, 148 psi)
Difference between cylinders;
49 kPa (0.5 kgf/cm
2, 7 psi), or less

18) Remove the pitching stopper.
19) Disconnect the fuel delivery hose (A), return
hose (B) and evaporation hose (C).
CAUTION:
 Disconnect the hose with its end wrapped
with cloth to prevent fuel from splashing.
 Catch fuel from the hose into container.
20) Support the engine with a lifting device and
wire ropes.21) Support the transmission with a garage jack.
CAUTION:
Before moving the engine away from transmis-
sion, check to be sure no work has been over-
looked. Doing this is very important in order to
facilitate re-installation and because the trans-
mission lowers under its own weight.
22) Separation of the engine and transmission.
(1) Remove the starter. REMOVAL, Starter.>
(2) Remove the bolts which hold upper side of
transmission to engine.
23) Install the ST to torque converter clutch case.
(AT model)

24) Remove the engine from vehicle.
(1) Slightly raise the engine.
(2) Raise the transmission with garage jack.

(3) Move the engine horizontally until main
shaft is withdrawn from clutch cover.
(4) Slowly move the engine away from engine
compartment.
NOTE:
Be careful not to damage the adjacent parts or
body panels with crank pulley, oil level gauge, etc.
25) Remove the front cushion rubbers.

Engine Noise
23.Engine Noise
A: INSPECTION
NOTE*:
When disconnecting fuel injector connector, the malfunction indicator light illuminates and DTC is stored in ECM memory.
Therefore, carry out the clear memory mode and inspection mode
after connecting fuel injector connector.Type of sound Condition Possible cause
Regular clicking soundSound increases as engine
speed increases. Valve mechanism is defective.
 Incorrect valve clearance
 Worn valve rocker
 Worn camshaft
 Broken valve spring
Heavy and dull clankOil pressure is low. Worn crankshaft main bearing
 Worn connecting rod bearing (big end)
Oil pressure is normal. Loose flywheel mounting bolts

High-pitched clank (Spark
knock)Sound is noticeable when
accelerating with an overload. Ignition timing advanced
 Accumulation of carbon inside combustion chamber
 Wrong spark plug

Clank when engine speed is
medium (1,000 to 2,000 rpm).Sound is reduced when fuel
injector connector of noisy cyl-
inder is disconnected.
(NOTE*) Worn crankshaft main bearing

is operating under idling speed
and engine is warmSound is reduced when fuel
injector connector of noisy cyl-
inder is disconnected.
(NOTE*) Worn cylinder liner and piston ring

 Worn piston pin and hole at piston end of connecting rod
Sound is not reduced if each
fuel injector connector is dis-
connected in turn. (NOTE*) Unusually worn valve lifter
 Worn cam gear
 Worn camshaft journal bore in crankcase
Squeaky sound — Insufficient generator lubrication
Rubbing sound — Defective generator brush and rotor contact
Gear scream when starting
engine— Defective ignition starter switch
 Worn gear and starter pinion
Sound like polishing glass with
a dry cloth— Loose drive belt

folds
Timing belt noise — Loose timing belt
 Belt contacting case/adjacent part
Valve tappet noise — Incorrect valve clearance
