134On-vehicle inspection1. check the drive belt
Observe the drive belt for excessive wear and cordline wear. Replace the drive belt if necessary.
Hint: Cracks on the rib side of a belt are considered acceptable. If missing chunks from the
ribs are found on the drive belt, it should be replaced.
2. Bleed the power steering system
(1) Check the fluid level
(2) Jack up the front of the vehicle and make sure it is safe
(3) Rotate the steering wheel
a. With the engine off, turn the steering wheel from LH limit position to RH limit position several
times
(4) Release the jack and lower the vehicle
(5) Start the engine, run the engine at idle for a few minutes
(6) Turn the steering wheel to left or right limit position and keep it there for 2 - 3 seconds, then turn the
steering wheel to the opposite limit position and keep it there for 2 - 3 seconds. Repeat it several
times.
(7) Shut off the engine, check for foaming or emulsification in the reservoir. If there is foaming or
emulsification, bleed power steering system repeatedly
(8) Check the fluid level and for leakage
2. Check the fluid level
(1) Park the vehicle on a level surface
(2) With the engine stopped, check the fluid level in the reservoir. Add power steering fluid AT F
DEXRON if necessary.
Hint: the fluid level should be within the range of lowest level and highest level
(3) Check for foaming or emulsification, if there is, drain the power steering systemNormalAbnormal

139Chapter 9 Brake SystemSection 1 Brake SystemPrecaution1. It's very important to keep the parts and area clean when repairing the brake system.
2. Care must be taken to replace each part properly as it could affect the performance of the brake
system and result in a driving hazard.
3. Do not let brake fluid remain on a painted surface when repairing any parts. Wash it off
immediately.
4. If any work is done on the brake system or air in the brake pipelines is suspected, bleed the
system of air.
5. Check the brake system for leakage after repairing the brake system.
6. Use specified brake fluid. Do not mix with other brand of brake fluid.Problem symptoms tableUse the table below to help you find the cause of the problem. The numbers indicate the priority of the likely
cause of the problem. Check each part in order. If necessary, replace these parts.Symptom Cause
1. Brake system (fluid leaks)
2. Brake system (air in)

2. Bleed brake pipeline system
(1) Connect the vinyl pipe to the wheel cylinder bleeder plug port
(2) Depress the brake pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder plug with the pedal held down.
(3) At the point when fluid stops flowing out, tighten the bleeder plug, and then release the brake pedal.
(4) Repeat (2) and (3) until all the air in the fluid has been bled out.
(5) Repeat the above procedure to bleed the brake pipeline of the air for each wheel cylinder.
Notice: Fill brake fluid into the reservoir all the time when bleeding.

143Section 4 Vacuum Booster with Brake Master Cylinder AssemblyNotice: The vacuum booster with brake master cylinder assembly must be repaired by
manufacturer. Replace it if it is faulty.On-vehicle inspection1. Check vacuum booster
(a) Air tightness check
(1) start the engine, run 1 or 2 minutes then shut off. Depress the brake pedal several times slightly.
Hint: if the pedal rises gradually after depressing the pedal, the booster is airtight.
(2) Depress the brake pedal while the engine is running, and stop the engine with the pedal depressed.
Hint: if there is no change in the pedal reserve stroke after holding the pedal for 30 seconds,
the booster is air--tight.
(b) Operating check
Depress the brake pedal and start the engine. If the pedal goes down slightly, operation is normal.
2. Check the vacuum check valve
(1) Remove the connecting pipe with the check valve
(2) Check the direction from the booster to the engine. Check valve for ventilation. It should not
ventilate in the reverse order.
(3) Replace it if it is faulty.
Notice: Pay attention to the matchmark on the connecting hose when connecting
the hose with vacuum check valve. Do not install it in reverse order.Replacement1. Remove the brake pipe on the brake master cylinder (master cylinder)
2. Refer to Brake Pedal Replacement for other operation
Notice:
(1) The torque of the union thread on the brake master cylinder (master cylinder )
