1. Inspect for cracks, fraying, wear or oil adhesion. Replace if
necessary.
The belts should not touch the bottom of the pulley groove.
2. Check drive belt de¯ection by pushing on the belt midway
between pulleys.
Adjust if belt de¯ections exceed the limit.

Changing Engine Oil
WARNING:
+Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil is hot.
+Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may
cause skin cancer; try to avoid direct skin contact with
used oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with
soap or hand cleaner as soon as possible.
1. Warm up engine, and check for oil leakage from engine com-
ponents.
2. Remove oil ®ller cap and drain plug.
3. Drain oil and ®ll with new engine oil.
Oil grade: CCMC PD1 or PD2

See ``RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND
LUBRICANTS'', MA-9.

+The re®ll capacity changes depending on the oil tempera-
ture and drain time; use these valves as a reference and be
certain to check with the dipstick when changing the oil.

Checking Exhaust System
Check exhaust pipes, muffler and mounting for improper
attachment, leaks, cracks, damage, loose connections, cha®ng and
deterioration.
Checking Clutch Fluid Level and Leaks
If ¯uid level is extremely low, check clutch system for leaks.
Checking Clutch System
Check ¯uid lines and operating cylinder for improper attachment,
cracks, damage, loose connections, cha®ng and deterioration.
Checking M/T Oil Level and Leaks
Never start engine while checking oil level.
1. Check manual transmission for leakage.
2. Check oil level.

Limited-slip differential gear
+ Use only approved or recommended limited-slip differential
gear oil.
+ Limited-slip differential identi®cation.
(1) Lift both rear wheels off the ground.
(2) Turn one rear wheel by hand.
(3) If both rear wheels turn in the same direction simultaneously, vehicle is equipped with limited-slip differential.
Checking Front Wheel Bearing Grease
+Check that wheel bearings operate smoothly.
+ Check front wheel bearings for grease leakage and water or
dust entry.
+ Replace front wheel bearings or front wheel bearing grease if
wheel bearings do not turn smoothly.
