Inspection and Verification
1. Verify the customer concern by operating the system.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical and electrical damage.
3. If the concern remains after the inspection, connect the scan tool to the data link connector (DLC) located beneath the instrument panel and select the vehicle to be tested from the scan
tool menu. If the scan tool does not communicate with the vehicle: 1. Check that the program card is correctly installed.
2. Check the connections to the vehicle.
3. Check the ignition switch position.
4. If the scan tool still does not communicate with the vehicle, refer to the scan tool manual.
5. Carry out the DATA LINK DIAGNOSTIC TEST. If the scan tool responds with: 1. CKT914, CKT915 or CKT70 = ALL ECUS NO RESP/NOT EQUIP, refer to Section 418-00.
2. NO RESP/NOT EQUIP for the anti- lock brake control module, Go To Pinpoint Test A .
3. SYSTEM PASSED, retrieve and record the continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs),
erase the continuous DTCs and carry out self- test diagnostics for the anti-lock brake
control module.
6. If the DTCs retrieved are related to the concern, go to the Anti- Lock Brake Control Module
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index to continue diagnostics.
7. If no DTCs related to the concern are retrieved, GO to Symptom Chart to continue diagnostics.
Anti-Lock Brake Control Module Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index
NOTE: If a wheel speed signal fault or a pump motor fault is detected, the yellow ABS warning
indicator cannot be reset with the key OFF and key ON method. The vehicle must be driven over 12
km/h (8 mph) for the anti- lock brake control module to do a re- check of the system before the yellow
ABS warning indicator is turned OFF. Visual Inspection Chart Mechanical Electrical

Valve Train Analysis—
Engine Running
z Start the engine and, while idling, check for correct operation of all parts. Check the following:
Valve Train Analysis— Engine Running, Valves and Cylinder Head
z Check for plugged oil drain back holes.
z Check for missing or damaged valve stem seals or guide mounted valve stem seals.
z Check for a plugged oil metering orifice in the cylinder head oil reservoir (4.6L engine only).
If insufficient oiling is suspected, check oil passages for blockage, then accelerate the engine to 1,200
rpm with the transmission in NEUTRAL and the engine at normal operating temperature. Oil should
spurt from the rocker arm oil holes such that valve tips and camshaft roller followers are well oiled.
With the valve covers (6582) off, some oil splash may overshoot camshaft roller followers.
Valve Train Analysis— Engine Running, Camshaft Lobe Lift— OHC Engines
Check the lift of each camshaft lobe in consecutive order and make a note of the readings. 1. Remove the valve covers.
2. Remove the spark plugs.
3. Install the Dial Indicator Gauge with Holding Fixture so the rounded tip of indicator is on top of the camshaft lobe and on the same plane as the valve tappet.
4. Rotate the crankshaft using a breaker bar and socket attached to the crankshaft pulley retainer bolt. Rotate the crankshaft until the base circle of the camshaft lobe is reached.
5. Zero the dial indicator. Continue to rotate the crankshaft until the (1) high- lift point of the
camshaft lobe is in the fully- raised position (highest indicator reading).
6. To check the accuracy of the original indicator reading, continue to rotate crankshaft until the (2) base circle is reached. The indicator reading should be zero. If zero reading is not obtained,
repeat Steps 1 through 6.
7. NOTE: If the lift on any lobe is below specified service limits, install a new camshaft, and new
camshaft roller followers.
Remove the Dial Indicator Gauge with Holding Fixture.
8. Install the spark plugs. Klj . 15 ba

9. Install the valve covers.
Valve Train Analysis— Engine Running, Camshaft Lobe Lift— Push Rod Engine
Check the lift of each lobe in consecutive order and make a note of the readings. 1. Remove the valve covers.
2. Remove the rocker arm seat bolts, rocker arm seat (6A528) and rocker arms.
Typical Engine With Push Rods
3. Make sure the valve tappet is seated against camshaft (6250). Install (1) Dial Indicator Gauge with Holding Fixture so the ball socket adapter of the indicator is on top of the valve tappet or (2)
Dial Indicator Gauge Adapter is on top of push rod and in same plane as valve tappet push rod
movement.
4. Remove the spark plugs.
5. Connect an auxiliary starter switch in the starting circuit. Crank the engine with ignition switch in OFF position. Bump crankshaft over until valve tappet is on base circle of camshaft lobe. At this
point, valve tappet will be in its lowest position. If checking during engine assembly, turn
crankshaft using a socket or ratchet.
6. Zero the dial indicator. Continue to rotate crankshaft slowly until valve tappet is in fully- raised
position (highest indicator reading).
7. NOTE: If lift on any lobe is below specified service limits, install a new camshaft, and new valve
tappets.
Remove the Dial Indicator with Holding Fixture, Dial Indicator Gauge Adapter, and auxiliary
starter switch.
8. Install rocker arm seats, rocker arms and rocker arm seat bolts.
9. Install valve covers.
10. Install spark plugs.

16. Remove and discard the intake manifold gaskets.
Installation 1. NOTE: If the lower intake manifold is not secured within four minutes, the sealant must be
removed and the sealing area cleaned with metal surface cleaner. Allow to dry until there is no
sign of wetness, or four minutes, whichever is longer. Failure to follow this procedure can cause
future oil leakage.
Install the lower intake manifold front and rear end seals. 1. Apply a bead of silicone gasket and sealant to the intake manifold front and rear end seal mounting points as indicated.
