ADJUSTMENT
1. INSPECT PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSY
(a) Apply the parking brake and turn the ignition switch to ON.
(b) Depress the brake pedal and check that the engine starts only when the shift lever is set in N or P posi-
tion.
(c) Check that the back-up light is lit and the reverse warning buzzer sounds only when the shift lever is
set in R position.
If a failure is found, check the continuity of the park/neutral position switch.
2. ADJUST PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSY
(a) Loosen the 2 bolts of park/neutral position switch and set
the shift lever to the N position.
(b) Align the groove with neutral basic line.
(c) Hold the switch in position and tighten the 2 bolts.

BRAKE BOOSTER ASSY (From July, 2003)
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT BRAKE BOOSTER
(a) Air tightness check.
(1) Start the engine and stop it after 1 or 2 minutes. De-
press the brake pedal several times slowly.
HINT:
If the pedal goes down farthest the 1st time, but gradually rises
after the 2nd or 3rd time, the booster is air tight.
(2) Depress the brake pedal while the engine is run-
ning, and stop the engine with the pedal depressed.
HINT:
If there is no change in the pedal reserve distance after holding
the pedal for 30 seconds, the booster is air tight.
(b) Operating check.
(1) Depress the brake pedal several times with the igni-
tion switch OFF and check that there is no change
in the pedal reserve distance.
(2) Depress the brake pedal and start the engine.
HINT:
If the pedal goes down slightly, operation is normal.
2. INSPECT VACUUM CHECK VALVE
(a) Check vacuum check valve.
(1) Slide the clip and disconnect the vacuum hose.
(2) Remove the vacuum check valve.
(3) Check that there is ventilation from the booster to
engine, and no ventilation from the engine to the
booster.
(4) If any fault is found, replace the vacuum check
valve.

shown in the illustration.
(4) Connect the tester terminal of the timing light to the
engine.
NOTICE:
Use a timing light which detects the first signal.
(5) Inspect the ignition timing at idle.
Ignition timing: 8 to 12 BTDC
NOTICE:

the neutral position.
HINT:
Run the engine at 1,000 to 1,300 rpm for 5 seconds, then check
that the engine speed returns to the idle speed.
(6) Disconnect terminals 13 (TC) and 4 (CG) of the
DLC3.
(7) Inspect the ignition timing at idle.
Ignition timing: 7 to 24 BTDC
(8) Confirm that the ignition timing advances when the
engine speed is increased.
(9) Remove the timing light.
8. INSPECT ENGINE IDLE SPEED
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) When using the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool:
(1) Connect the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool to the DLC3.
(2) Enter DATA LIST MODE on the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool.
Idle speed: 630 to 730 rpm
NOTICE:

When checking the idle speed, the transmission is in the neutral position.

Check the idle speed with the cooling fan OFF.

Switch OFF all accessories and air conditioning before connecting the hand-held tester or OBD
II scan tool.
HINT:
Refer to the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool operator's manual for further details.

(f) Check that the VVT-i moves freely within about 30
range. Avoid moving the VVT-i unit to the most retard
angle position as the lock pin will engage again.
Standard: Smooth movable range is about 30
(g) Turn the VVT-i by hand, then lock it at the most retard
angle position.
32. REMOVE CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSY
NOTICE:
Do not remove or install the camshaft timing gear (VVT-i)
unless you are replacing the VVT-i or camshaft.
(a) Clamp the camshaft in a vise on the hexagonal lobe.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to damage the camshaft.
(b) Using a 46 mm socket wrench, remove the lock nut by
turning it clockwise.
NOTICE:

Remove it with the lock pin engaged and locked at the
most retard angle position.

The lock nut has LH threads.

Never use any tools other than the socket wrench.
Other tools will deform the cam angle rotor.
(c) Remove the camshaft VVT-i.
NOTICE:
Never remove the 3 bolts on the gear.
If it is difficult to remove VVT-i, tap it lightly using a plastic-faced
hammer, then remove it.
33. REMOVE CAMSHAFT SUB GEAR
(a) Clamp the camshaft in a vise on the hexagonal lobe.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to damage the camshaft.
