2, 218 psi)
Minimum pressure:
1.0 MPa (10.2 kgf/cm
2, 145 psi)
Difference between each cylinder:
100 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2, 15 psi)
NOTICE:

Always use a fully-charged battery to obtain engine
speed of 250 rpm or more.

Check the other cylinder's compression pressure in
the same way.

This measurement must be done as quickly as pos-
sible.
(4) If the cylinder compression is low, pour a small
amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the
spark plug hole, then inspect again.
HINT:

If adding oil increases the compression, the piston rings
and/or cylinder bore may be worn or damaged.

If pressure stays low, the valve may be sticking or seated
improperly, or there may be leakage past the gasket.
10. INSPECT CO/HC
HINT:
The ECM properly controls the CO/HC concentration in the emission gas.
(a) Start the engine.
(b) Run the engine at 2,500 rpm for approximately 180 seconds.

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL
(a) Warm up the engine, then stop the engine and wait for 5 minutes.
(b) Check that the engine oil level is between the low and full level marks on the level gage.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to the full level mark.
NOTICE:
Do not fill with engine oil above the full level mark.
2. CHECK ENGINE OIL QUALITY
(a) Check the oil for deterioration, water intrusion, discoloring
or thinning.
If the quality is visibly poor, replace the oil.
Oil grade:
Use API grade SL ºEnergy-Conservingº, or ILSAC
multigrade engine oil.
SAE 5W-30 is the best choice for good fuel economy,
and good starting in cold weather.
If SAE 5W-30 is not available, SAE 10W-30 may be
used.
However, it should be replaced with SAE 5W-30 at the
next oil replacement.
3. INSPECT OIL PRESSURE
(a) Disconnect the oil pressure switch connector.
(b) Using a deep socket wrench 24 mm, remove the oil pres-
sure switch.
(c) Install the oil pressure gauge.
(d) Warm up the engine.
