3F-4 WHEELS AND TIRES
Higher than Recommended Pressure Can Cause:
1. Hard ride
2. Tire bruising or carcass damage
3. Rapid tread wear at center of tire
Unequal Pressure on Same Axle Can Cause:
1. Uneven braking
2. Steering lead
3. Reduced handling
4. Swerve on acceleration
Valve caps should be kept on valves to keep dust and
water out.Lower than Recommended Pressure Can Cause:
1. Tire squeal on turns
2. Hard steering
3. Rapid and uneven wear on the edges of the tread
4. Tire rim bruises and rupture
5. Tire cord breakage
6. High tire temperatures
7. Reduced handling
8. High fuel consumption
MAINTENANCE AND MINOR ADJUSTMENTS
WHEEL AND TIRE
Wheel repairs that use welding, heating, or peening are not approved. All damaged wheels should be replaced.
STUDS
If a broken stud is found, see Section 3E (rear) or Section 3D (front) for Note and Replacement procedure.
MATCHED TIRES AND WHEELS
(For vehicle equipped with steel wheels)
Tires and wheels are matchmounted at the assembly plant.
This means that the radially stiffest part of the tire, or ªhigh spotº, is
matched to the smallest radius or ªlow spotº of the wheel.
This is done to provide the smoothest possible ride.
The ªhigh spotº of the tire is originally marked by paint dot on the
outboard sidewall. This paint dot will eventually wash off the tire.
The ªlow spotº of the wheel is originally marked by paint dot on the
wheel rim-flange. Properly assembled, the wheel rims' paint dot
should be aligned with the tires' paint dot as shown in left figure.
Whenever a tire is dismounted from its wheel, it should be re-
mounted so that the tire and wheel are matched. If the tire's paint
dot cannot be located, a line should be scribed on the tire and wheel
before dismounting to assure that it is remounted in the same posi-
tion.
INFLATION OF TIRES
The pressure recommended for any model is carefully calculated to give a satisfactory ride, stability, steering, tread
wear, tire life and resistance to bruises.
Tire pressure, with tires cold, (after vehicle has set for three hours or more, or driven less than one mile) should
be checked monthly or before any extended trip. Set to the specifications on the tire placard located on the side
of instrument panel.
It is normal for tire pressure increase when the tires become hot during driving. Do not bleed or reduce tire pressure
after driving. Bleeding reduces the ªCold Inflation Pressureº.

FLUSHING BRAKE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
It is recommended that entire hydraulic system be thoroughly
flushed with clean brake fluid whenever new parts are installed in
hydraulic system.
Periodical change of brake fluid is also recommended.
FLUID PRESSURE TEST(if equipped with
LSPV)
Test procedure for LSPV assembly is as follows.
Before testing, confirm the following.

Fuel tank is filled with fuel fully.

Vehicle is equipped with spare tire, tools, jack and jack handle.

200 kg (441 lbs) weight on rear housing so that rear axle weight
800 kg (1764 lb).
Rear axle weight ªLº: 800 kg (1764 lb)
2) Install special tool to front and rear brake.
NOTE:
Special tool should be connected to breather of front (driv-
er's side brake) and rear brakes.

bleeder plug) or
09952-46510 (Attachment for thread diameter 8 mm of
bleeder plug)
(C): 55473-82030 (Air bleeder plug supplied as a spare part)
NOTE:

Special tool (B) is used instead of thread diameter 10 mm
attachment of special tool (A).
So remove the attachment from (A) and install (B) as
shown in figure.

For vehicle with TOKICO brake caliper, use the attach-
ment included in special tool (A).

For identification of brake caliper type, refer to GENERAL
DESCRIPTION in SECTION 5B.

PRECAUTION IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLE

Don't disconnect couplers from PCM (ECM), battery cable from battery, PCM ground wire harness from engine
or main fuse before checking the diagnosis information (DTC, freeze frame data, etc.) stored in PCM memory.
Such disconnection will clear memorized information in PCM memory.

Using SUZUKI scan tool (Tech-1), or also generic scan tool for vehicle without monitor connector, the diagnostic
information stored in PCM memory can be checked and cleared as well. Before its use, be sure to read Operator's
(instruction) Manual supplied with it carefully to have good understanding of its functions and usage.

Priorities for diagnosing troubles (Only for vehicle without monitor connector)
If two or more diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are stored, proceed to the flow table of the DTC which was de-
tected earliest in the order and follow the instruction in that table.
If no instructions are given, troubleshoot diagnostic trouble codes according to the following priorities.
1. Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) other than DTC P0171 / P0172 (Fuel system too lean / too rich) and DTC
P0400 (EGR flow malfunction)
2. DTC P0171 / P0172 (Fuel system too lean / too rich) and DTC P0400 (EGR flow malfunction)

Be sure to read ªPrecautions for Electrical Circuit Serviceº in Section 0A before inspection and observe what is
written there.

PCM replacement
When substituting a known-good PCM, check for following conditions.
Neglecting this check may result in damage to good PCM.
± All relays and actuators have resistance of specified value.
± MAF sensor, MDP sensor, TP sensor and fuel tank pressure sensor are in good condition. Also, the power
circuit of these sensors is not shorted to the ground.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
WARNING:

When performing a road test, select a place where there is no traffic or possibility of a traffic accident
and be very careful during testing to avoid occurrence of an accident.

Road test should be carried out with 2 persons, a driver and a tester, on a level road.
1) Connect scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF.
2) Clear DTC, pending DTC and freeze frame data in PCM memory by using scan tool and check fuel level meter
indication is 1/4 or more.
3) Start engine, warm it up to normal operating temperature and shift transfer lever to ª2Hº or ª4Hº range.
4) Increase vehicle speed with D range, and check that gear position changes from 1st to 2nd and keep driving
about 20 mph, 30 km/h in 2nd of ªDº range for 10 seconds. (Throttle valve should be not at idle position and
the opening should be kept constant in this step.)
5) Keep driving about 50 mph, 80 km/h in 4th of ªDº range for 10 seconds.
6) Release accelerator pedal, decrease vehicle speed and stop vehicle.
7) Check pending DTC and DTC by using scan tool.
