SYSTEM CHECK
1. Disconnect the hose (black) from the turbocharger waste
gate solenoid valve and connect a three-way joint between
the hose and the solenoid valve.
2. Connect a hand vacuum pump to the three-way joint.

NOTE
If this check indicates an abnormal condition, the
turbocharger waste gate actuator, turbocharger waste
gate solenoid or hose is broken.
WASTE GATE ACTUATOR CHECK
1. Connect a manual pump (pressure-application type) to
nipple.
2. While gradually applying pressure, check the pressure that
begins to activate (approximately 1 mm stroke) the waste
gate actuator rod.
Standard value: Approximately 100 kPa
Caution
In order to avoid damage to the diaphragm, do not
apply a pressure of 117 kPa or higher.

3. If there is a significant deviation from the standard value,
check the actuator or the waste gate valve: replace
actuator or turbocharger assembly if necessary.
WASTE GATE SOLENOID VALVE CHECK
OPERATION CHECK
1. Connect a hand vacuum pump to the solenoid valve nipple
A.
2. Using a jumper wire, connect between the solenoid valve
terminal and battery terminal.
3. Connecting and disconnecting the jumper wire at the
battery negative terminal to apply a negative pressure,
check tightness.

INTAKE MANIFOLD PRESSURE CHECK
Refer to GROUP 11A – On-vehicle Service.
SECONDARY AIR CONTROL SYSTEM CHECK
1. Start the engine and carry out idling.
2. Confirm that the secondary air valve lifts up when the
engine-ECU connector No. 53 terminal is short-circuited
with the earth using a jumper wire.
The engine-ECU connector must be connected at this
time.
SECONDARY AIR CONTROL SOLENOID
VALVE CHECK
OPERATION CHECK
1. Disconnect the vacuum hose (white-striped, yellow-
striped) from the solenoid valve.
2. Separate the harness connector.
3. Connect the hand vacuum pump to the solenoid valve’s
A nipple.
4. Connect the solenoid valve terminal and battery terminal
with a jumper wire.
5. Disconnect the jumper wire between the battery’s ( - )
terminals, apply a negative pressure, and inspect the
tightness.

1. Disconnect the secondary air valve.
2. Connect the hand vacuum pump to the secondary air
valve’s nipple.
3. Apply a negative pressure of 67 kPa, and confirm that
the negative pressure is maintained.
4. Blow in air from the (A) side and (B) side of the secondary
air valve, and inspect the ventilation.

1. Connect the hand vacuum pump to the vacuum tank’s
A nipple. Apply a negative pressure of 67 kPa, and confirm
that the negative pressure is maintained.
2. Connect the hand vacuum pump to the vacuum tank’s
B nipple.
3. Plug the A nipple with a finger, and apply a negative
pressure of 67 kPa. Confirm that the negative pressure
leaks immediately when the finger is released.

"CAOIL RETURN PIPE GASKET INSTALLATION
Install the gasket so that its print part can face towards the
oil pan side.
INSPECTION
Check the following points; replace the part if a problem is
found.
1. EXHAUST MANIFOLD CHECK
(1) Check for damage or cracking of any part.
(2) Using a straight edge and a feeler gauge, check for
distortion of the cylinder head installation surface.
Standard value: 0.15 mm or less
Limit: 0.20 mm
2. TURBOCHARGER ASSEMBLY CHECK
(1) Visually check the turbine wheel and the compressor
wheel for cracking or other damage.
(2) Check whether the turbine wheel and the compressor
wheel can be easily turned by hand.
(3) Check for oil leakage from the turbocharger assembly.
(4) Check whether or not the waste gate valve remains open.
If any problem is found, replace the part after disassembly.

DISASSEMBLY SERVICE POINTS
AA"SNAP RING REMOVAL
Lay the unit with the compressor cover side facing down
and using snap ring pliers, remove the compressor cover
attaching snap ring.
Caution
When removing the snap ring, hold it with fingers to
prevent it from springing away.
AB"TURBINE WHEEL ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
Remove the turbine wheel assembly, striking the
circumference of the compressor cover with a plastic hammer.
The turbine wheel assembly may be a little hard to remove
due to an O-ring put on the outer circumference.
CLEANING
1. Use a clean cleaning oil commercially available. Do not
use corrosive cleaning oils as they could damage to some
parts.
2. Use a plastic scraper or hard brush to clean aluminum
parts.
REASSEMBLY SERVICE POINTS
"AAO-RING INSTALLATION
Apply a light coat of engine oil to a new O-ring and fit in
the turbine wheel assembly groove.
Caution
When installing the O-ring, use care not to damage it. A
damaged O-ring causes oil leaks.
"BATURBINE WHEEL ASSEMBLY
1. Apply a light coat of engine oil to the periphery of the
O-ring.
2. Install the turbine wheel assembly to the compressor cover
in relation to the dowel pin.
Caution
Use care not to damage the blades of turbine wheel
and compressor wheel.
