EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND TURBOCHARGER

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS OF TURBOCHARGER
Preliminary check:

Make sure that the engine oil level is between “MIN” and “MAX” of the oil level gauge. (When engine oil
amount is more than “MAX”, engine oil flows into the inlet duct through blow-by gas passage, and turbo-
charger is misjudged malfunction.)

Ask the customer if he/she always runs the vehicle in idle engine speed to cool the engine oil down after
driving.

Replace the turbocharger assembly when any malfunction is found after unit inspections specified in the
table below.

If no malfunction is found after the unit inspections, judge that the turbocharger body has no malfunction.
Check the other parts again.

INJECTION TUBE AND FUEL INJECTOR

CAUTION:

Check gutter spring in nozzle oil seal on fuel injector for missing.
6. Connect injection tubes individually to each cylinder in order of
3-4-1-2.
7. Connect spill hose. Refer to EM-146, "
INTAKE MANIFOLD" .

CAUTION:
Do not touch engine immediately after stopped as engine becomes extremely hot.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking at points out of clear sight.

CHECKING COMPRESSION PRESSURE
1. Warm up engine thoroughly. Then, stop it.
2. Using CONSULT-II, make sure no error codes are indicated for self-diagnosis items. Refer to EC-1012,
"Basic Inspection" (WITH EURO-ODB) or EC-1382, "Basic Inspection" (WITHOUT EURO-ODB).

Do not disconnect CONSULT-II until the end of this operation; it will be used to check engine rpm and
for error detection at the end of this operation.
3. Disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal.
4. Remove charge air cooler. Refer to EM-144, "
Removal and Installation"
5. To prevent fuel from being injected during inspection, remove
fuel pump fuse [ENG CONT 2 (20A)] from fuse box on the left
side of engine room.

Among marks on fuse box, [ENG CONT 2 (20A)] is for fuel
pump fuse.
6. Remove glow plugs from all the cylinders. Refer to EM-162,
"Removal and Installation" .
CAUTION:

Before removal, clean the surrounding area to prevent
entry of any foreign materials into engine.

Carefully remove glow plugs to prevent any damage or
breakage.

Handle with care to avoid applying any shock to glow plugs.
7. Install compression gauge adapter (special service tool) to
installation holes of glow plugs and connect compression gauge
for diesel engine.
8. Connect the battery cable to the negative terminal.
9. With accelerator pedal fully depressed, turn ignition switch to
“START” for cranking. When the gauge pointer stabilizes, read
the compression pressure and engine rpm. Perform these steps
to check each cylinder.

Always use a fully-charged battery to obtain specified engine
speed.
Compression pressure
Unit: kPa (bar, kg/cm2 , psi)/rpm

When engine rpm is out of the specified range, check the specific gravity of battery liquid. Measure
again under corrected conditions.

If engine rpm exceeds the limit, check valve clearance and combustion chamber components (valves,
valve seats, cylinder head gaskets, piston rings, pistons, cylinder bores, cylinder block upper and lower
surfaces) and measure again.

If compression pressure is low in some cylinders, apply engine oil from glow plug installation hole. Then
check pressure again.
–If compression pressure becomes normal after applying engine oil, piston ring may be worn or dam-
aged. Check piston ring for malfunction. If any, replace piston ring.
–If compression pressure is still low after applying engine oil, valve may be malfunctioning. Check valve
for malfunction. If contact malfunction is found, replace valve or valve seat.

If compression pressure in adjacent two cylinders is low after applying engine oil, pressure may be
leaking from gasket. In this case, replace cylinder head gasket.

c. Tighten 180 degrees in numerical order as shown (angle tight-
ening).
d. Loosen completely in reverse order of that shown in the figure.
e. Tighten all bolts in numerical order as shown.
f. Tighten 90 degrees in numerical order as shown (angle tighten-
ing).
g. Tighten another 90 degrees in numerical order as shown (angle
tightening).
CAUTION:

When the angle wrench (special service tool) is not used, paint an alignment mark on the head
of cylinder head bolt and cylinder head surface before tightening. Check the angle with a pro-
tractor.
4. Install glow plug.
CAUTION:

To avoid damage, glow plugs should be removed only when required.

Handle with care to avoid applying shock. When dropped from approx. 10 cm (3.94 in) or higher,
always replace with a new one.

Before installing, remove carbon depositing on mounting hole of glow plug with a reamer.
5. Install in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak and exhaust gases leak.

Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-17, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Before starting engine, bleed air from fuel piping. Refer to FL-18, "Air Bleeding" .

Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.

Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids
including engine oil and engine coolant.

Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.

After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.
Summary of the inspection items:
* Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.

NOTE:
Before starting engine, put vehicle horizontally and check the engine oil level. If engine is already started, stop
it and allow 10 minutes before checking.
1. Pull out oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
2. Insert oil level gauge and make sure the engine oil level is within
the range shown in the figure.
3. If it is out of range, adjust it.
ENGINE OIL APPEARANCE

Check engine oil for white turbidity or heavy contamination.

If engine oil becomes turbid and white, it is highly probable that it is contaminated with engine coolant.
Repair or replace damaged parts.
ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE
Check for engine oil leakage around the following area.

Oil pan

Oil pan drain plug

Oil pressure switch

Oil filter

Oil cooler

Intake valve timing control cover and intake valve timing control solenoid valve

Front cover

Mating surface between cylinder block and lower cylinder block

Mating surface between cylinder block and cylinder head

OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:

Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.

Engine oil pressure check should be in “ Parking position” (A/T models) or “Neutral position” (M/T
models), and should apply parking brake securely.
1. Check engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
ENGINE OIL LEVEL" .
2. Remove RH undercover.
