3. Remove fuel pump fuse in IPDM E/R to release fuel pressure.
NOTE:
 For the fuse number, refer to EC-114, "
Wiring Diagram".
 For the fuse arrangement, refer to PG-143, "
Fuse, Connector and Terminal Arrangement".
 Do not use CONSULT-III to release fuel pressure , or fuel pressure applies again during the following
procedure.
4. Start engine.
5. After engine stalls, crank it 2 or 3 times to release all fuel pressure.
6. Turn ignition switch OFF.
7. Remove all ignition coil harness connectors to avoi d the electrical discharge from the ignition coils.
8. Remove ignition coil and spark plug of the cylinder to be checked.
9. Crank engine for 5 seconds or more to remove combustion gas in the cylinder.
10. Connect spark plug and harness connector to ignition coil.
11. Fix ignition coil using a rope etc. with gap of 13 - 17 mm (0.52 - 0.66 in) between the edge of the spark plug and grounded metal
portion as shown in the figure.
12. Crank engine for approximately 3 seconds, and check whether
spark is generated between the spark plug and the grounded
metal portion.
CAUTION:
 Never place the spark plug and the ignition coil within 50
cm (19.7 in) each other. Be careful not to get an electrical
shock while checking, becau se the electrical discharge
voltage becomes 20 kV or more.
 It might damage the ignition coil if the gap of more than 17 mm (0.66 in) is made.
NOTE:
When the gap is less than 13 mm (0.52 in), a spark might be generated even if the coil is malfunc-
tioning.

SNOW MODE SWITCH
SNOW MODE SWITCH
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006256403
The snow mode switch signal is sent to the combinat
ion meter from the snow mode switch. The combination
meter then sends the signal to the ECM via the CAN communication line.
The snow mode is used for driving or starting the vehicle on snowy roads or slippery areas. If the snow mode
is activated, the vehicle speed will not accelerate as quickly as normal to avoid vehicle slip. In other words,
ECM controls rapid engine torque change by controlling t he electric throttle control actuator operating speed.
Component Function CheckINFOID:0000000006256404
1.CHECK SNOW MODE SWITCH FUNCTION

COMPRESSION PRESSURE
COMPRESSION PRESSURE
InspectionINFOID:0000000006289521
1. Warm up engine thoroughly. Then, stop it.
2. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-153, "
Work Procedure".
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-III is not used to release fuel pr essure leave the fuel pump fuse disconnected until
step 7.
3. Remove fuel pump fuse in IPDM E/R. NOTE:
 For the fuse number, refer to EC-114, "
Wiring Diagram".
 For the fuse arrangement, refer to PG-143, "
Fuse, Connector and Terminal Arrangement".
4. Remove engine cover. Refer to EM-25, "
Exploded View".
5. Remove ignition coil and spark plug from each cylinder. Refer to EM-29, "
Exploded View".
6. Connect engine tachometer (not required in use of CONSULT-III).
7. Install the compression tester with Tool [SST: EG15050500 (J- 45402)] into the spark plug hole.
8. Measure compression pressure using compressi on gauge connected with flexible type adapter (commer-
cial service tool).
9. 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.
CAUTION:
 Measure a six-cylinder under the same conditio ns since a measurement depends on measure-
ment conditions (engine water temperature, etc.).
 Always use a fully changed battery to obtain the specified engine speed.
 If the engine speed is out of the specified range, c heck battery liquid for proper gravity. Check the
engine speed again with normal battery gravity. Refer to PG-159, "
How to Handle Battery".
 If compression pressure is below the minimum value, check valve clearances and parts associated with combustion chamber (valve, valve seat, piston, pi ston ring, cylinder bore, cylinder head, cylinder head
gasket). After checking, measure compression pressure again.
 If a cylinder has low compression pressure, pour a 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, pi ston rings may be worn out or damaged. Check pis-
ton rings and replace if necessary. Refer to EM-107, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
- 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. Refer to EM-107, "
Dis-
assembly and Assembly".
 If two adjacent cylinders have respectively low co mpression pressure and their compression remains
low even after the addition of engine oil, cylinder head gaskets are leaking. In such a case, replace cyl-
inder head gaskets. Refer to EM-87, "
Removal and Installation".
10. After inspection is completed, install removed parts.
11. Start the engine, and check that the engine runs smoothly.

HOW TO SELECT PISTON AND BEARING
In grinding crankshaft pin to use undersize bearings, keep the
fillet R (A) [1.5 - 1.7 mm (0.059 - 0.067 in)].
Main BearingINFOID:0000000006289588
WHEN NEW CYLINDER BLOCK AND CRANKSHAFT ARE USED
1. Apply the main bearing housing grade on the bottom face of thecylinder block to the row in “MAIN BEARING SELECTION
TA B L E ” .
2. “MAIN BEARING SELECTION TABLE” columns correspond to
journal diameter grade on front side of crankshaft.
3. Select main bearing grade at the point where selected row and column meet in “MAIN BEARING SELEC- TION TABLE”.
CAUTION:
 Initial clearance for No. 1, 5 journal and No. 2, 3, 4 journal is different. Use two different selection
table for each part.
 No. 1, 5 journal and No. 2, 3, 4 journal have the same signs but different measures. Never con-
fuse.
4. Apply sign at crossing in above step 3 to “MAIN BEARING GRADE TABLE”.
NOTE:
 “MAIN BEARING GRADE TABLE” applies to all journals.
 Service parts are available as a set of both upper and lower.
WHEN CYLINDER BLOCK AND CRANKSHAFT ARE REUSED
1. Measure cylinder block main bearing housing inner diameter and crankshaft main journal diameter. Refer to EM-115, "
Inspection".
