134On-vehicle inspection1. check the drive belt
Observe the drive belt for excessive wear and cordline wear. Replace the drive belt if necessary.
Hint: Cracks on the rib side of a belt are considered acceptable. If missing chunks from the
ribs are found on the drive belt, it should be replaced.
2. Bleed the power steering system
(1) Check the fluid level
(2) Jack up the front of the vehicle and make sure it is safe
(3) Rotate the steering wheel
a. With the engine off, turn the steering wheel from LH limit position to RH limit position several
times
(4) Release the jack and lower the vehicle
(5) Start the engine, run the engine at idle for a few minutes
(6) Turn the steering wheel to left or right limit position and keep it there for 2 - 3 seconds, then turn the
steering wheel to the opposite limit position and keep it there for 2 - 3 seconds. Repeat it several
times.
(7) Shut off the engine, check for foaming or emulsification in the reservoir. If there is foaming or
emulsification, bleed power steering system repeatedly
(8) Check the fluid level and for leakage
2. Check the fluid level
(1) Park the vehicle on a level surface
(2) With the engine stopped, check the fluid level in the reservoir. Add power steering fluid AT F
DEXRON if necessary.
Hint: the fluid level should be within the range of lowest level and highest level
(3) Check for foaming or emulsification, if there is, drain the power steering systemNormalAbnormal

1383. Loosen the union thread of the high and low pressure pipes on the steering gear assembly
4. Remove the boot band and No. 1, No. 2 boots
5. Disconnect the power steering gear assembly from the steering column
Remove the steering gear pinion shaft spline lock bolt on the universal joint yoke
6. Remove power steering gear assembly
Remove 4 steering gear assembly set bolts, remove the power steering gear assembly
7. Installation is in the reverse order of the removal
Notice:
(1) Insert the steering gear pinion shaft spline into the spline hole of the universal joint
yoke, make sure that the positions of the notch of the steering gear pinion shaft and the
lock bolt of the universal joint yoke are correct
(2) Secure the power steering gear with 4 bolts, torque: 63~93N.m
(3) Tighten the steering gear pinion shaft spline lock bolt on the universal joint yoke, torque:
22~34N.m
(4) Tighten the 4 set bolts of the boot band and boot torque: 16~26N.m
(5) Install the union thread of the power steering high and low pressure pipe to the power
steering gear, torque: 19~33N.m
(6) Connect the tie rod ball stud pin with the steering knuckle, make sure that the mating
surface of the tie rod ball stud pin and the steering knuckle is clean, tighten the slot nut,
torque: 27~39N.m. Install the cotter pin, make sure of the correct installation
(7) Add appropriate amount of specified power steering fluid, bleed the power steering sys-
tem
(8) Check the power steering pipeline system for leakage
(9) Check the front wheel alignment and front wheel left and right limit turn angle, adjust the
toe in if necessary and tighten the tie rod lock nut
(10)Check the position of the steering wheel. It is required that the steering wheel spokes
are basically symmetrical when the vehicle is driven straight ahead, reassemble the steering
wheel if necessary

139Chapter 9 Brake SystemSection 1 Brake SystemPrecaution1. It's very important to keep the parts and area clean when repairing the brake system.
2. Care must be taken to replace each part properly as it could affect the performance of the brake
system and result in a driving hazard.
3. Do not let brake fluid remain on a painted surface when repairing any parts. Wash it off
immediately.
4. If any work is done on the brake system or air in the brake pipelines is suspected, bleed the
system of air.
5. Check the brake system for leakage after repairing the brake system.
6. Use specified brake fluid. Do not mix with other brand of brake fluid.Problem symptoms tableUse the table below to help you find the cause of the problem. The numbers indicate the priority of the likely
cause of the problem. Check each part in order. If necessary, replace these parts.Symptom Cause
1. Brake system (fluid leaks)
2. Brake system (air in)
3. P iston Cup in Sub-pump (worn or dama ge d)
4. Rear brake shoe clearance (out of adjustment)
5. Master cylinder (faulty)
6. Booste r push rod (out of a djustme nt)
7. Brake shoe or lining (oily)
8. Disc/Drum scratched
1. Brake pe dal free stroke is too small
2. P a rking brake le ver stroke (out of a djustme nt)
3. P a rking brake ca ble (stic king)
4. Rear brake shoe clearance (out of adjustment)
5. Brake pa d or lining (c rac ked or distorte d)

140Section 2 Brake FluidBleeding1. Fill brake reservoir with brake fluid
Brake fluid: JG4 GB10830
2. Bleed brake pipeline system
(1) Connect the vinyl pipe to the wheel cylinder bleeder plug port
(2) Depress the brake pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder plug with the pedal held down.
(3) At the point when fluid stops flowing out, tighten the bleeder plug, and then release the brake pedal.
(4) Repeat (2) and (3) until all the air in the fluid has been bled out.
(5) Repeat the above procedure to bleed the brake pipeline of the air for each wheel cylinder.
Notice: Fill brake fluid into the reservoir all the time when bleeding.
3. Check fluid level in reservoir
Check the fluid level and fill fluid if necessary.Symptom Suspe ct a re a
