17. INSPECT VALVE SEATS
(a) Apply a light coat of prussian blue (or white lead) to the
valve face.
(b) Lightly press the valve against the seat.
NOTICE:
Do not rotate the valve.
(c) Check the valve face and seat according to the following
procedure.
(1) If blue appears 360 around the face, the valve is
concentric. If not, replace the valve.
(2) If blue appears 360 around the valve seat, the
guide and face are concentric. If not, resurface the
seat.
(3) Check that the seat contact is in the middle of the
valve face with the width between 1.0 and 1.4 mm
(0.039 to 0.055 in.).
18. REPAIR VALVE SEATS
NOTICE:
Releasing the seat cutter pressure gradually helps to make
smoother valve seat faces.
(a) If the seating is too high on the valve face, use the 30 and
45 cutters to correct the seat.
(b) If the seating is too low on the valve face, use the 60 and
45 cutters to correct the seat.
(c) Lap the valve and valve seat by hand with an abrasive
compound.
(d) Recheck the valve seating position.
19. INSPECT VALVE LIFTER
(a) Using a micrometer, measure the lifter diameter.
Lifter diameter:
30.966 to 30.976 mm (1.2191 to 1.2195 in.)

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT BATTERY (MAINTENANCE- FREE BAT-
TERY)
(a) Check the battery electrolyte level.
(1) Check the electrolyte quantity of each cell.
If the electrolyte quantity is below the recommended amount,
replace the battery.
(b) Check the battery voltage.
(1) If it has been less than 20 minutes since you
stopped driving the vehicle or since the engine was
stopped, turn the ignition switch and electrical sys-
tems (headlight, blower motor, rear defogger etc.)
to the ON position for 60 seconds. This will remove
the surface charge on the battery.
(2) Turn the ignition switch and electrical systems OFF.
(3) Using a voltmeter, measure the battery voltage be-
tween the negative (-) and positive (+) terminals of
the battery.
Standard voltage: 12.5 to 12.9 V at 20C (68F)
If the voltage is less than the specification, charge the battery.
(c) Check the indicator as shown in the illustration.
HINT:
Blue: OK
White: Charging Necessary
Red: Insufficient Water
2. INSPECT BATTERY (EXCEPT MAINTENANCE-FREE
BATTERY)
(a) Check the battery electrolyte level.
(1) Check the electrolyte quantity of each cell.
If the electrolyte quantity is below the recommended amount,
add distilled water.

(b) Check the battery specific gravity.
(1) Check the specific gravity of each cell.
Standard specific gravity: 1.25 to 1.29 at 20C (68F)
If the specific gravity is less than specification, charge the bat-
tery.
(c) Check the battery voltage.
(1) If it has been less than 20 minutes since you
stopped driving the vehicle or since the engine was
stopped, turn the ignition switch and electrical sys-
tems (headlight, blower motor, rear defogger etc.)
to the ON position for 60 seconds. This will remove
the surface charge on the battery.
(2) Turn the ignition switch and electrical systems OFF.
(3) Using a voltmeter, measure the battery voltage be-
tween the negative (-) and positive (+) terminals of

If the voltage is less than the specification, charge the battery.
(d) Check the indicator as shown in the illustration.
HINT:
Blue: OK
White: Charging Necessary
Red: Insufficient Water
3. INSPECT BATTERY TERMINALS, FUSIBLE LINK AND FUSES
(a) Visually check the battery terminals.
(1) Check that the battery terminals are not loosened or corroded.
(b) Visually check the fusible link and fuses.
(1) Check that there is continuity of the fusible links, high current fuses and regular fuses.
4. INSPECT V-RIBBED BELT
(a) Visually check the belt for excessive wear, frayed cords,
etc.
If any defects are found, replace the v-ribbed belt.
Cracks on the rib side of the belt are considered ac-
ceptable.
If the belt has chunks missing from the ribs, it should
be replaced.
