WARNING:
Be sure to perform when the engine is stopped.
1. Remove air duct and resonator assembly when inspecting drive belt.
2. Make sure that indicator (single line notch) of eac
h auto tensioner is within the allowable working range
(between three line notches).
NOTE:
• Check the drive belt auto tensioner indication when the engine is cold.
• The indicator notch is located on the moving side of the drive belt auto tensioner.
3. Visually check entire belt for wear, damage or cracks.
4. If the indicator is out of allowable working range or belt is damaged, replace the belt. Refer to EM-13
.
DRIVE BELT TENSION
There is no manual drive belt tension adjustment. The driv e belt tension is automatically adjusted by the drive
belt auto tensioner.

NOTE:
• To remove timing chain and associated parts, start with those on the LH bank. The procedure for removing
parts on the RH bank is omitted because it is t he same as that for removal on the LH bank.
• To install timing chain and associated parts, start with those on the RH bank. The procedure for installing parts on the LH bank is omitted because it is t he same as that for installation on the RH bank.

< PRECAUTION >
PRECAUTIONS
• Before starting repairs which do not require battery power:Turn off ignition switch.
Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
• If the battery terminals are disconnected, recorded memory of radio and each control unit is erased.
• To prevent serious burns: Avoid contact with hot metal parts.
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.
• Dispose of drained oil or the solvent used for cleaning parts in an appropriate manner.
• Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically.
Continued refueling may cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel spray
and possibly a fire.
• Clean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or solvent prior to inspection or assembly.
• Replace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking washers,
cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new ones.
• Replace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and needle bearings as a set.
• Arrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their assembled locations and sequence.
• Do not touch the terminals of electrical com ponents which use microcomputers (such as ECM).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic components.
• After disconnecting vacuum or air hoses, atta ch a tag to indicate the proper connection.
• Use only the fluids and lubricants specified in this manual.
• Use approved bonding agent, sealants or their equivalents when required.
• Use hand tools, power tools (disassembly only) and recommended special tools where specified for safe and efficient service repairs.
• When repairing the fuel, oil, water, vacuum or exhaust systems, check all affected lines for leaks.
• Before servicing the vehicle: Protect fenders, upholstery and carpeting with appropriate covers.
Take caution that keys, buckles or buttons do not scratch paint.
WARNING:
To prevent ECM from storing the diagnostic tro uble codes, do not carelessly disconnect the harness
connectors which are related to the engine control system and TCM (transmission control module)

Checking Drive BeltsINFOID:0000000004215528
WARNING:
Be sure to perform when the engine is stopped.
1. Remove air duct and resonator assembly when inspecting drive belt.
2. Make sure that indicator (single line notch) of each auto tensioner is within the allowable working range“A” (between three line notches) as shown.
NOTE:
• Check the drive belt auto tensioner indication when the engine is cold.
• The indicator notch is located on the moving side of the drive belt auto tensioner.
3. Visually check entire belt for wear, damage or cracks.
4. If the indicator is out of allowable working range or belt is damaged, replace the belt. Refer to MA-14
.
DRIVE BELT TENSION
There is no manual drive belt tension adjustment. The driv e belt tension is automatically adjusted by the drive
belt auto tensioner.
Changing Engine CoolantINFOID:0000000004215534
WARNING:
• To avoid being scalded, never change the coolant when the engine is hot.
• Wrap a thick cloth around the cap to carefully remove the cap. First, turn the cap a quarter of a turn
to release any built-up pressure, th en push down and turn the cap all the way to remove it.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Turn ignition switch ON and set temperature control lever all the way to HOT position or the highest tem-
perature position. Wait 10 seconds and turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Remove the engine front undercover using power tool.

2. Fill the radiator and the reservoir tank (to the “MAX”
line), with water. Reinstall the radiator cap and leave
the vented reservoir cap off.
3. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature.
4. Press the engine accelerator two or three times under no-load.
5. Stop the engine and wait until it cools down.
6. Drain the water from the engine cooling system.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 until clear water begins to drain from the radiator.
Checking Fuel LineINFOID:0000000004215533
Inspect fuel lines, fuel filler cap and fuel tank for improper attach-
ment, leaks, cracks, damage, loos e connections, chafing or deterio-
ration.
If necessary, repair or replace damaged parts.
Changing Fuel FilterINFOID:0000000003776989
The fuel filter is part of the fuel level sensor unit, fuel filter and fuel pump assembly. Refer to FL-7, "Removal
and Installation" .
WARNING:
Before replacing the fuel filter, release the fuel pressure from the fuel system. Refer to EC-487, "
Fuel
Pressure Check".
Changing Engine Air Cleaner FilterINFOID:0000000004215529
REMOVAL
NOTE:
• The viscous paper type filter does not need cleaning between replacement intervals.
• Replace the air filter as necessary for periodic maintenance. Refer to MA-8, "
