lator, and right torque rod.

Prevent splashing by using a shop cloth so as to prevent the worker from injury from engine oil
and so as to prevent engine oil contamination.

Prevent splashing by using a shop cloth so as to prevent engine oil from being splashed to
engine and vehicle. Especially, be careful not to apply engine oil to rubber parts of drive belts,
engine mounting insulator, etc. Wipe engine oil off immediately if it is splashed.

MAIN BEARING CAP BOLT OUTER DIAMETER

Measure the outer diameters (“d1 ”, “d2” ) at two positions as
shown.

If reduction appears in places other than “B” range, regard it as
“d
2 ”.

If it exceeds the limit (a large difference in dimensions), replace
main bearing cap bolt with a new one.
CONNECTING ROD BOLT OUTER DIAMETER

Measure the outer diameter “d” at position as shown.

If reduction appears in a position other than “d”, regard it as “d”.

When “d” exceeds the limit (when it becomes thinner), replace
connecting rod bolt with a new one.
CLOGGED OR DAMAGED OIL FILTER (FOR INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL)

Make sure that there is no foreign material on the oil filter and
check it for clogging.
–Clean it if necessary.

Check the oil filter for damage.
–Replace it if necessary.
FLYWHEEL DEFLECTION (M/T MODELS)

a dial indicator (A).

Measure the deflection at 210 mm (8.27 in) diameter.

If measured value is out of the standard, replace flywheel.

If a trace of burn or discoloration is found on the surface, repair it
with sandpaper.
CAUTION:
When measuring, keep magnetic fields (such as dial indicator
stand) away from signal plate of the rear end of crankshaft.
MOVEMENT AMOUNT OF FLYWHEEL (M/T MODELS)
CAUTION:
Never disassemble double mass flywheel.
Movement Amount of Thrust (Fore-and-Aft) Direction

Measure the movement amount of thrust (fore-and-aft) direction when 100 N (10.2 kg, 22 lb) force is
added at the portion of 125 mm (4.92 in) radius from the center of flywheel.

WA RN ING:
Be sure to read “General Precautions” before working on the fuel system. Refer to FL-4, "
General Pre-
cautions" .
1. Check fuel level with the vehicle on a level surface. If the fuel
gauge indicates more than the level as shown (7/8 full), drain
fuel from the fuel tank until the fuel gauge indicates level as
shown (7/8 full).
NOTE:
Fuel will be spilled when removing fuel pump assembly if fuel
level is above the fuel pump assembly installation surface.

As a guide, fuel level is at the level as shown or below when
approximately 12 (3 1/8 US gal, 2 5/8 Imp gal) of fuel is
drained from a full fuel tank.

In case fuel pump does not operate, perform the following
procedure.
a. Insert fuel tubing of less than 25 mm (0.98 in) in diameter into fuel filler tube through fuel filler opening to
drain fuel from fuel filler tube.
b. Disconnect fuel filler hose from fuel filler tube. Refer to FL-9, "
FUEL TANK" .
c. Insert fuel tubing into fuel tank through fuel filler hose to drain fuel from fuel tank.
2. Open fuel door and unscrew the fuel filler cap to release the pressure inside the fuel tank.
3. Release the fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-81, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" .
4. Remove rear seat bottom. Refer to SE-14, "
REAR SEAT" .
5. Turn the four retainers 90° in a clockwise direction and remove the fuel pump inspection hole cover.
