2. Compression
A: INSPECTION
CAUTION:
After warming-up, engine becomes very hot. Be
careful not to burn yourself during measure-
ment.
1) After warming-up the engine, turn the ignition
switch to OFF.
2) Make sure that the battery is fully charged.
3) Release the fuel pressure.
PRESSURE, PROCEDURE, Fuel.>
4) Remove all the spark plugs. 4, REMOVAL, Spark Plug.>
5) Check the starter motor for satisfactory perfor-
mance and operation.
6) Hold the compression gauge tightly against the
spark plug hole.
NOTE:
When using a screw-in type compression gauge,
the screw (put into cylinder head spark plug hole)
should be less than 18 mm (0.71 in) long.
7) Fully open the throttle valve.
8) Crank the engine by means of the starter motor,
and read the maximum value on the gauge when
the pointer is steady.
9) Perform at least two measurements per cylinder,
and make sure that the values are correct.
Compression (350 rpm and fully open throttle):
Standard:
1,275 — 1,471 kPa (13.0 — 1.50 kgf/cm2,
185 — 213 psi)
Service limit:
1,128 kPa (11.5 kgf/cm2, 164 psi)

29) Disconnect the fuel delivery hose and evapora-
tion hose.
(1) Disconnect the connector of fuel pipe by
pushing the ST in the direction of arrow.

(2) Remove the clamp, and disconnect the
evaporation hose from the pipe.
CAUTION:
•Collect fuel from the hose into container.
•Disconnect the hose with its end wrapped
with cloth to prevent fuel from splashing.
30) Support the engine with a lifting device and
wire ropes.
31) Support the transmission with a garage jack.
CAUTION:
Doing this is very important because the trans-
mission lowers for its own weight. This work is
also of great importance for facilitating reinstal-
lation.
CAUTION:
Before removing the engine away from trans-
mission, check to be sure no work has been
overlooked.
32) Separation of engine and transmission:
(1) Remove the starter. REMOVAL, Starter.>
(2) Remove the bolts which hold upper side of
transmission to engine.
33) Install the ST to converter case.
ST 498277200 STOPPER SET
34) Remove the engine from vehicle.
(1) Slightly raise the engine.
(2) Raise the transmission with garage jack.
(3) Move the engine horizontally until main shaft
is withdrawn from clutch cover.
(4) Slowly move the engine away from engine
compartment.
NOTE:
Be careful not to damage adjacent parts or body
panels with crank pulley, oil level gauge, etc.
35) Remove the front cushion rubbers.
