CHECKING COMPRESSION PRESSURE
1. Warm up engine thoroughly. Then, stop it.
2. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-81, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" .
3. Disconnect fuel pump fuse (1) to avoid fuel injection during mea-
surement.
4. Remove engine cover. Refer to EM-18, "
Components" .
5. Remove ignition coil and spark plug from each cylinder. Refer to EM-30, "
IGNITION COIL, SPARK PLUG
AND ROCKER COVER" .
6. Connect an engine tachometer (not required in use of CONSULT-II).
7. Install a suitable compression tester with an adapter onto spark
plug hole.

Use the adapter whose picking up end inserted to spark plug
hole is smaller than 20 mm (0.79 in) in diameter. Otherwise, it
may be caught by cylinder head during removal.
8. With accelerator pedal fully depressed, turn ignition switch to “START” for cranking. When the gauge
pointer stabilizes, read the compression pressure and the engine rpm. Perform these steps to check each
cylinder.
Compression pressure:
Unit: kPa (bar, kg/cm2 psi) /rpm
CAUTION:
Always use fully a changed battery to obtain the specified engine speed.

If the engine speed is out of the specified range, check battery liquid for proper gravity. Check engine
speed again with normal battery gravity.

If compression pressure is below minimum value, check valve clearances and parts associated with
combustion chamber (Valve, valve seat, piston, piston ring, cylinder bore, cylinder head, cylinder head
gasket). After the checking, measure the compression pressure again.

If some cylinder has low compression pressure, pour small amount of engine oil into the spark plug hole
of the cylinder to re-check it for compression.
–If the added engine oil improves the compression, piston rings may be worn out or damaged. Check
piston rings and replace if necessary.
–If the compression pressure remains at low level despite the addition of engine oil, valves may be mal-
functioning. Check valves for damage. Replace valve or valve seat accordingly.

If two adjacent cylinders have respectively low compression pressure and their compression remains
low even after the addition of engine oil, cylinder head gasket is leaking. In such a case, replace cylin-
der head gasket.
9. After inspection is completed, install removed parts.
10. Start the engine, and confirm that the engine runs smoothly.
11. Perform trouble diagnosis. If DTC appears, erase it. Refer to EC-83, "
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS" .

INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Cylinder Head Bolts Outer Diameter

Cylinder head bolts are tightened by plastic zone tightening
method. Whenever the size difference between “d1” and “d2”
exceeds the limit, replace them with a new one.

If reduction of outer diameter appears in a position other than
“d2”, use it as “d2” point.
Cylinder Head Distortion
NOTE:
When performing this inspection, cylinder block distortion should be also checked. Refer to EM-98, "
CYLIN-
DER BLOCK TOP SURFACE DISTORTION" .
1. Wipe off engine oil and remove water scale (like deposit), gasket, sealant, carbon, etc. with a scraper.
CAUTION:
Use utmost care not to allow gasket debris to enter passages for engine oil or water.
2. At each of several locations on bottom surface of cylinder head,
measure the distortion in six directions using straightedge (A)
and feeler gauge (B).

If it exceeds the limit, replace cylinder head.
