Oil Pressure
Testing
lf the oil pressure warning light stays on with the enginerunning, check the engine oil level. lf the oil level is
correct:
1. Connect a tachometer.
2. Remove the oil pressure switch and install an oil pres-
sure gauge.
3. Stan the engine. Shut it off immediately if the gauge
registers no oil pressure. Repair the problem before
continuing.
4. Allow the engine to reach operating temperatu,e {fancomes on at least twice). The Dressure should be:
Engine Oil Pressure:
At ldle: 70 kPa (0.7 kgf/cmr, 10 psi)
minimum
At 3,OOO lpm: 340 kPa {3.5 kgf/cmz, 50 psi}
minimum
a lJ oil pressure is within speciJications, replace the
engine oil pressure switch and recheck.
a lf oil pressure is NOT within specifications, in-
spect the oil pump (see page 8-1O).

Oil Jet
Inspection (B18C1 engine only|
Remove the oil jet (see page 8-4) and inspect it as
follows.
a Make sure that a I .l mm (O.04 in) diameter drill
will go through the nozzle hole {1 .2 mm {O.OS in)
diameterl.
a Insert the other end of the same 1.1 mm (O.O4
in) drill into the oil intake {1.2 rnm {0.05 in}
diameter).
Make sure the check ball moves smoothlv and has
a stroke of approximately 4.0 mm {O. 16 in).a Check the oil jet operation with an air nozzle. lt
should take at least 2OO kPa (2.O kgf/cmr,28
Dsi) 10 unseat the check ball.
NOTE: Replace the oiljet assembly if the nozzle
is damaged or bent.

stalling.

@ ne-oving the radiator cap while the engine
is hot can cause the engine coolant to splay out, seri-
ously scalding you. Always let the engine and radiatol
cool down betore removing the radiator cap.
CAUTION: When poudng engine coolant, be sure to shut
the relay box lid and not to let coolant spill on the elec-
tlical pans or the paint. ll any coolant spills, rinse it otf
immediately.
1. Slide the heater temperature control lever to maxi-
mum heat.
Make sure the engine and radiator are cool to the
touch.
2. Remove the radiator cao.
3. Loosen the drain plug on the bottom of the radiator,
and remove the drain bolt from the enoine block. Let
the coolant drain out.

5.
Remove the reservoir from its holder by pulling it
straight up. Drain the coolant, then put the reservoir
back in its holder.
When the coolant stops draining, apply liquid gasket
to the drain bolt threads, then reinstallthe bolt with
a new washer. Tighten it securely
6. Tighten the radiator drain plug securely.
7. Mix the recommended antifreeze/coolant with an
equal amount of water in a clean container.
NOTE:
. Use only HONDA-RECOMMENOED antifreeze/
coolant.
a For best corrosion protection, the engine coolant
concentrations must be maintained year-round at
50% MINIMUM. Coolant concentrations less than
50% may not provide sufficient protection
against corrosion or freezing.
CAUTION:
a Do not mix ditterent blands ot anti-freeze/
coolants.
a Do not use additional rust inhibitois or anti-rust
products; they may not bs compatibl€ with the
recommgndsd engins coolant.

System Description
The idle speed ot lhe engine is controlled by the ldle Air Control {lAC) Valve.
The valve changes the amount ot air bypassing into the intake manifold in response to electric current controlled by the
ECM. When the IAC Valve is activated, the valve opens to maintain the proper idle speed.

ldle Control System
Fast ldle Thermo Valve
DEscliptlon
To prevent erratic running when the engine is warming
up, it is n€cessary to raise the idle speed. The fast idle
thermo valve is controlled by a thermowax plunger, When
the engine is cold. the engine coolant su.rounding the
thermowax contracts the plunger, allowing additional air
to be bypassed into the intake manifold so that the en-
gine idlss taster. When the engine reaches operating tem-
peratur€, the valve closss, reducing the amount of air
bypassing into the manifold.
