Installthe battery. Clean the battery posts and
cable terminals with sandpaper, then assemble
them and apply grease to prevent corrosion.
Check that the transmission shifts into gear
smoothly.
Inspect for fuel leaks. Turn the ignition switch ON(ll) {do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump
runs for about 2 seconds and pressurizes the fuel
line. Repeat this operation two or three times, then
check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.
Refillthe engine with engine oil (see page 8-5).
Refill the transmission with fluid (see page 13-3).
Refill the radiator with engine coolant, and bleed
air from the cooling system with the heater valve
open (see page 10-6).
Perform the engine control module (ECM) idle learnprocedure (see page 11-139).
Inspect the idle speed (see page 1 1-138).
Inspect the ignition timing (see page 4-17).
Check the wheel alignment {see page 18-4).
Enter the anti-theft code for the radio, then enter
the customer's radio station presets.

Engine Compression Inspection
1. Warm up the engine to normal operating
temperature (cooling fan comes on).
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Remove the intake manifold cover (see step 1 onpage 6-22).
4, Disconnect all four injector connectors.
5. Start the engine, and let it run until it stalls.
6. Remove the iour ignition coils (see page 4-18).
7. Remove the four spark plugs.
8. Attach the compression gauge to the spark plug
note.

Open the throttle fully, then crank the engine with
the starter motor and measure the compression.
Compression Pressure
Above 930 kpa (9.5 kgf/cm', 135 psi)
Measure the compression on the remaining
cylinders,
Maximum vadation
Within 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm', 28 psi)
lf the compression is not within specifications,
check these items, then remeasure the
compressron.

WEC Rocker Arms Test
Special Tools Required. Air pressure regulator 07AAJ-PNAA100. VTEC air adaoter 07ZAJ-PNAA100. WEC air stoDoer 07ZAJ-PNAA200. Air joint adapter 07ZAJ-PNAA300
1. Remove the cylinder head cover (see page 6-22).
2. Set the No. 1 piston at top dead center (TDC) (see
step 1 on page 6-12).
3. Verify that the intake primary rocker arm (A) moves
independently of the intake secondary rocker arm
(B).
. lf the intake primary rockerarm does not move,
remove the primary and secondary rocker arms
as an assembly and check that the pistons in the
secondary and primary rocker arms move
smoothly. lf any rocker arm needs replacing,
replace the primary and secondary rocker arms
as an assemblv, and test.. lfthe intake primary rocker arm moves freely, go
to step 4.
6.
Repeat step 3 on the remaining intake primary
rocker arms with each piston at TDC. When all the
primary rocker arms pass the test, go to step 5.
Check that the air pressure on the shop air
compressor gauge indicates over 400 kPa
(4 kgflcm', 57 psi).
Inspect the valve clearance (see page 6-9).
Remove the sealing bolt (A)from the relief hole,
and install the VTEC air stopper (B).7.
