If the engine is already warmed-up, operate at
idle speed for at least 1 minute.
3) Read data of front oxygen (A/F) sensor sig-
nal using the Subaru Select Monitor or general
scan tool.

3CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR SIGNAL.
1) Race engine at speeds from idling to 5,000
rpm for a total of 5 cycles.
NOTE:To increase engine speed to 5,000 rpm, slowly
depress accelerator pedal, taking approximate-
ly 5 seconds, and quickly release accelerator
pedal to decrease engine speed.
2) Operate the LED operation mode for
engine.

Rich Signal} blink?
Check front oxy-
gen (A/F) sensor
circuit.
Check rear oxygen
sensor circuit.

Idle Speed
MECHANICAL
3. Idle Speed
A: INSPECTION
1) Before checking the idle speed, check the fol-
lowing item:
(1) Check the air cleaner element is free from
clogging, ignition timing is correct, spark plugs
are in good condition, and hoses are connected
properly.
(2) Check the malfunction indicator light does
not illuminate.
2) Idle the engine.
3) Stop the engine, and turn the ignition switch to
OFF.
4) Insert the cartridge to Subaru Select Monitor.
5) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to data link
connector.
6) Turn the ignition switch to ON and Subaru Select
Monitor switch to ON.
7) Select {Each System Check} in Main Menu.
8) Select {Engine} in Selection Menu.
9) Select {Current Data Display & Save} in Engine
Control System Diagnosis.
10) Select {Data Display} in Data Display Menu.
11) Start the engine, and read the engine idle
speed.
12) Check the idle speed when no-loaded. (Head-
light, heater fan, rear defroster, radiator fan, A/C
and etc. are OFF)
Idle speed [No load and gears in neutral]:
650±50 rpm
13) Check the idle speed when loaded. (Turn the A/
C switch to “ON” and operate the compressor for at
least one minute before measurement.)
Idle speed [A/C ON and gears in neutral]:
770±50 rpm
NOTE:
Idle speed cannot be adjusted manually, because
the idle speed is automatically adjusted. If the pre-
scribed idle speed cannot be maintained, refer to
General On-board Diagnosis Table under “Engine
Control System”.

Ignition Timing
MECHANICAL
4. Ignition Timing
A: INSPECTION
CAUTION:
After warming-up, engine becomes very hot. Be
careful not to burn yourself at measurement.
1) Before checking the ignition timing, check the
following item:
(1) Check the air cleaner element is free from
clogging, spark plugs are in good condition, and
hoses are connected properly.
(2) Check the malfunction indicator light does
not illuminate.
2) Idle the engine.
3) Stop the engine, and turn the ignition switch to
OFF.
4) Insert the cartridge to Subaru Select Monitor.
5) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to data link
connector.
6) Turn the ignition switch to ON and Subaru Select
Monitor switch to ON.
7) Select {Each System Check} in Main Menu.
8) Select {Engine} in Selection Menu.
9) Select {Current Data Display & Save} in Engine
Control System Diagnosis.
10) Select {Data Display} in Data Display Menu.
11) Start the engine and check the ignition timing at
idle speed.
Ignition timing [BTDC/rpm]:
15°±8°/650
If the timing is not correct, check the ignition control
system. Refer to Engine Control System.

4) Check the snap ring installation groove (A) on
the piston for burr. If necessary, remove burr from
the groove so that the piston pin can lightly move.
5) Check the piston pin snap ring for distortion,
cracks and wear.
4. PISTON RING
1) If the piston ring is broken, damaged or worn, or
if its tension is insufficient, or when the piston is re-
placed, replace the piston ring with a new one of
the same size as piston.
CAUTION:
•Marks are displayed on the end of top and
second rings. When installing the ring to pis-
ton, face this mark upward.
•Oil ring consists of the upper rail, expander
and lower rail. When installing on the piston, be
careful of the direction of each rail
2) Squarely place the piston ring and oil ring in cyl-
inder, and measure the piston ring gap with a thick-
ness gauge.
3) Measure the clearance between piston ring and
piston ring groove with a thickness gauge.
NOTE:
Before measuring the clearance, clean the piston
ring groove and piston ring.
