SHIFT CONTROL
lInstall shift knob according to the following.
–Apply cement to threads of control lever assembly.
–Tightening shift knob until reacting. Then align shift knob to the
position as shown in the figure within one turn.
CAUTION:
Do not adjust shift knob with loosing.
CAUTION:
lInsert bushing of control lever assembly to the hole of striking arm as far as bushing goes.
lApply multi-purpose grease to socket and bushing.
lBe careful with the orientation guide plate and boot.
lTighten guide plate mounting bolts to the specified torque.
lBe careful with the orientation clip.
lDo not reuse clip.
lBe careful with the orientation control lever boot and insu-
lator.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
After installing, confirm the following items:
lWhen control lever assembly is shifted to each position, make sure there is no binding or disconnection in
each boot.
lWhen shifted to each position, make sure there is no noise, catching, and backlash. Especially when con-
trol lever assembly is shifted to 5th, 6th without pressing downward, check for catching.
lWhen control lever assembly is shifted to 1st, 2nd side and 5th, 6th side, confirm control lever assembly
returns to neutral position smoothly.
lIn any position other than reverse, confirm that control lever assembly can be pressed downward.
lWith control lever assembly pressed downward, confirm that it can be shifted to reverse.
lWhen shifted from reverse to neutral position, confirm control lever assembly returns to neutral position
smoothly with spring power.
lWithout control lever assembly pressed downward, confirm that it cannot be shifted to reverse.

POWER STEERING FLUID
POWER STEERING FLUID
PFP:KLF20
Checking Fluid LevelEGS001LD
lCheck fluid level with engine stopped.
lMake sure that fluid level is between MIN and MAX.
lFluid levels at HOT and COLD are different. Do not confuse
them.
CAUTION:
lThe fluid level should not exceed the MAX line. Excessive
fluid will cause fluid leakage from the cap.
lDo not reuse drained power steering fluid.
lRecommended fluid is Type DEXRONTMIII or equivalent.
Checking Fluid LeakageEGS001LE
Check hydraulic connections for fluid leakage, cracks, damage,
looseness, or wear.
1. Run engine until the fluid temperature reaches 50 to 80°C(122
to 176°F) in reservoir tank, and keep engine speed idle.
2. Turn steering wheel several times from full left stop to full right
stop.
3. Hold steering wheel at each lock position for five seconds and
carefully, check for fluid leakage.
CAUTION:
Do not hold the steering wheel in a locked position for more
than 10 seconds. (There is the possibility that oil pump may
be damaged.)
4. If fluid leakage at connections is noticed, then loosen flare nut and then retighten. Do not over-tighten con-
nector as this can damage O-ring, washer and connector.
5. If fluid leakage from oil pump is noticed, check oil pump. Refer toPS-25, "
POWER STEERING OIL
PUMP".
6. Check steering gear boots for accumulation of fluid, indicating from steering gear.
Air Bleeding Hydraulic SystemEGS001LF
If air bleeding is not complete, the following symptoms can be observed.
lBubbles are created in reservoir tank.
lClicking noise can be heard from oil pump.
lExcessive buzzing in the oil pump
NOTE:
Fluid noise may occur in the steering gear or oil pump. This does not affect performance or durability of
the system.
1. Turn steering wheel several times from full left to full right stop with engine off.
CAUTION:
Turn steering wheel while filling reservoir tank with fluid so as not to lower fluid level below the
MIN line.
2. Start engine and hold steering wheel at each lock position for 3 seconds at idle to check for fluid leakage.
3. Repeat step 2 above several times at approximately 3 second intervals.
CAUTION:
Do not hold the steering wheel in a locked position for more than 10 seconds. (There is the possi-
bility that oil pump may be damaged.)
4. Check fluid for bubbles and while contamination.HOT : Fluid temperature 50 - 80°C (122 - 176°F)
COLD : Fluid temperature 0 - 30°C(32-86°F)
