1A TUNE-UP PROCEDURE
76G01A-102
76G01A-103
76G01A-104
TUNE-UP PROCEDURE
Tune the engine according to the procedures
described below.
Battery
1. Check for corrosion on the terminals, or loose ca-
ble connections.
If necessary, clean the clamps and tighten firmly.
2. Check that the electrolyte level is between the UP-
PER and LOWER marks.
Add distilled water if necessary.
3. Check the specific gravity by using a hydrometer.
If the specific gravity reading is 1.200 or less,
recharge the battery. (Refer to Section 5.)
Air Cleaner Element
Visually check the air cleaner element for excessive
dirt, damage, or oil. Replace if necessary.
Caution
Do not clean the air cleaner element with com-
pressed air, replace if necessary.
Engine Oil
Check the engine oil level and condition with the oil
level gauge.
Add oil, or change it, if necessary.

1A TUNE-UP PROCEDURE
Coolant Level (Cold engine)
1. Check that the coolant level is near the radiator inlet
port.
2. Check that the level in the coolant reservoir is be-
tween the FULL and LOW marks.
Add coolant if necessary.
Warning
a) Never remove the radiator cap while the en-
gine is hot.
b) Wrap a thick cloth around the cap and care-
fully remove it.

When measured
Drive Belt
1. Check the drive belt for wear, cracks, or fraying.
Replace if necessary.
2. Check the drive belt tension by using the tension
gauge.
Standard belt tension N (kg, lb)

Belt New Used
Alternator 589-785 (60-80, 132-176) 491-687 (50-70, 110-154)

76G01A-006
76G01A-007
Adjusting bolt
3. Check the drive belt deflection by applying moder-
ate pressure (98 N, 10 kg, 22 lb) midway between
the pulleys.
(1) Alternator belt deflection
New : 6—8 mm (0.24—0.31 in)
Used: 7—9 mm (0.27—0.35 in)
If necessary, loosen the alternator mounting
bolts and adjust the belt deflection by turning
the adjusting bolt.
Tightening torque
31—46 Nm (3.2—4.7 m-kg, 23—34 ft-lb)
(§): 37—52 Nm (3.8—5.3 m-kg, 27—38 ft-lb)
(2) P/S belt deflection
New : 8—10 mm (0.31—0.39 in)
Used: 9—11 mm (0.35—0.43 in)
If necessary, loosen the idler pulley lock bolt
and adjust the belt deflection by turning the ad-
justing bolt.
Tightening torque of lock bolt:
37—52 Nm (3.8—5.3 m-kg, 27—38 ft-lb)

(3) A/C belt deflection
New : 7—9 mm (0.27—0.35 in)
Used: 8—10 mm (0.31—0.39 in)
If necessary, loosen the A/C mounting bolts
and adjust the belt deflection by turning the ad-
justing bolt.
Tightening torque
37—52 Nm (3.8—5.3 m-kg, 27—38 ft-lb)
(§): 37—52 Nm (3.8—5.3 m-kg, 27—38 ft-lb)
(4) P/S and A/C belt deflection
New : 7—9 mm (0.27—0.35 in)
Used: 8—10 mm (0.31—0.39 in)
If necessary, adjust the belt deflection using the
same procedure as used for the A/C belt
deflection.
Spark Plug
Check the following points. Clean or replace if
necessary.
1. Damaged insulation
2. Worn electrodes
3. Carbon deposits
4. Damaged gasket
5. Burnt spark insulator
6. Plug gap
Plug gap:
0.75—0.85 mm (0.030—0.033 in)... 8-valve
0.70—0.80 mm (0.028—0.031 in)... 12-valve
Distributor Cap
Check the following points. Replace if necessary.
1. Cracks or carbon deposits
2. Burnt or corroded terminals
3. Worn distributor center contact
