CHECKING COMPRESSION PRESSURE
1. Warm up engine thoroughly. Then, stop it.
2. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-700, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" .
a. Remove fuel pump fuse to avoid fuel injection during measure-
ment.
3. Remove engine cover with power tool. Refer to EM-168, "
ENGINE ROOM COVER" .
4. Remove ignition coil and spark plug from each cylinder. Refer to EM-185, "
IGNITION COIL" and EM-186,
"SPARK PLUG (PLATINUM-TIPPED TYPE)" .
5. Connect engine tachometer (not required in use of CONSULT-II).
6. Install compression gauge with adapter (SST or commercial ser-
vice tool) onto spark plug hole.

Use compression gauge adapter (SST) which is required on
No. 7 and No. 8 cylinders.

Use compression gauge adapter (if no SST is used) whose
picking up end inserted to spark plug hole is smaller than 20
mm (0.79 in) in diameter. Otherwise, it may be caught by cyl-
inder head during removal.
7. With accelerator pedal fully depressed, turn ignition switch to “START” for cranking. When the gauge
pointer stabilizes, read the compression pressure and engine rpm. Perform these steps to check each cyl-
inder.
Compression pressure:
Unit: kPa (kg/cm2 , psi) /rpm
CAUTION:
Always use a fully changed battery to obtain specified engine speed.

Before loosening main bearing cap bolts, measure the crankshaft end play. Refer to EM-256, "CRANK-
SHAFT END PLAY" .

Loosen bolts in several different steps.
a. Remove cover attached to the rear left side of cylinder block
(next to the starter motor housing).
NOTE:
Bolts (No. 27 shown in the figure) are installed on the inside of
cover.
b. Loosen side bolts (M10) starting from 30 to 21 to remove.
c. Loosen main bearing cap sub bolts (M9) starting from 20 to 11 to
remove.
d. Loosen main bearing cap bolts (M12) starting from 10 to 1 to
remove.
e. Using main bearing cap remover (SST), remove main bearing
cap.
15. Remove crankshaft.
16. Remove main bearings and thrust bearings from cylinder block and main bearing caps.
CAUTION:
Identify installation positions, and store them without mixing them up.
17. If the pilot converter must be removed, remove it from the rear
end of the crankshaft using pilot bushing puller (SST).

It is possible to remove pilot converter without hoisting engine
with engine stand.
ASSEMBLY
1. Fully air-blow engine coolant and engine oil passages in cylinder block, cylinder bore and crankcase to
remove any foreign material.
CAUTION:
Use a goggles to protect your eye.

Press-fit pilot converter with its chamfering side facing crank-
shaft as shown in the figure.

It is possible to remove pilot converter without hoisting engine
with engine stand.
5. Install crankshaft to cylinder block.

While turning crankshaft by hand, make sure it turns smoothly.
6. Install main bearing caps.

Align the identification number to the journal position to install.

Install the upper side of the identification number facing the
front of engine. (The number shall be read correctly from the
rear of engine.)

Using plastic hammer or similar tool, tap them lightly to seat
them on the installation position.
NOTE:
Main bearing cap cannot be replaced as a single parts, because
it is machined together with cylinder block.
7. Install each main bearing cap bolt as follows:
a. Apply new engine oil to threads and seating surface of main
bearing cap bolts, and tighten all bolts temporarily.
b. Tighten main bearing cap bolt (M12) in order of 1 to 10.
c. Tighten main bearing cap sub bolt (M9) in order of 11 to 20.
d. Tighten main bearing cap bolt (M12) to 40 degrees clockwise in
order of 1 to 10. (Angle tightening)
CAUTION:
Use angle wrench (SST) to check tightening angle in step
“d” and “e”. Do not make judgment by visual inspection.
e. Tighten main bearing cap sub bolt (M9) to 30 degrees clockwise
in order of 11 to 20. (Angle tightening)
f. Tighten side bolt (M10) in order of 21 to 30.

After installing main bearing cap bolts, make sure that crankshaft can be rotated smoothly.

Check the crankshaft end play. Refer to EM-256, "CRANKSHAFT END PLAY" .
g. Install cover of cylinder block rear left side (next to the starter motor housing).

1. Turn off all loads on the vehicle electrical system. Clean or repair
as necessary.
2. Visually inspect the battery, battery terminals and cable ends
with ignition switch in “OFF” position.
NOTE:
The contact surface between the battery terminals, cable ends
and tester leads must be clean for a valid test. A poor connec-
tion will prevent testing and a “CHECK CONNECTION” mes-
sage will appear during the test procedures. If this occurs, clean
the battery post and terminals, reconnect them and restart the
test.
3. Connect the red tester lead clamp to the positive battery termi-
nal, and the black to the negative terminal.
4. The tester will turn on automatically. Using the arrow keys,
select “IN-VEHICLE” on the tester and then press the “ENTER”
key.
5. Locate the battery type and rating stamped or written on the top
case of the battery to be tested.
NOTE:
The battery type and rating will have either of the following.
CCA: Cold Cranking Amps (490 CCA, 550 CCA, etc.)
JIS: Japanese Industrial Standard.
Battery is stamped with a number such as:
80D26L: 80 (rank of output), D (physical size-depth), 26 (width
in cm). The last character L (post configuration) is not input into
the tester.
The tester requires the rating for the battery be entered exactly
as it is written or stamped on the battery. Do not attempt a CCA
conversion for JIS stamped batteries. JIS must be input directly.
6. Using the arrow and “ENTER” keys alternately, select the battery type and rating.
NOTE:
The tester lists five choices; CCA, JIS, IEC, DIN, and EN. Only use CCA or JIS.
7. Press “ENTER” to begin the test. Diagnosis results are dis-
played on the tester. Refer to SC-8, "

STARTING SYSTEMPFP:23300
System Description AKS0079C
Power is supplied at all times:

through 40A fusible link (letter F, located in the fuse and fusible link box)

to ignition switch terminal 1

through 15A fuse (No. 78, located in the IPDM E/R)

to CPU of IPDM E/R

through 10A fuse (No. 71, located in the IPDM E/R)

to CPU of IPDM E/R.
When the selector lever in the P or N position, power is supplied:

from TCM, and through A/T assembly terminal 9

to IPDM E/R terminal 53.
Ground is supplied:

to IPDM E/R terminals 38, 50 and 60

from body grounds E21, E50 and E51.
With the ignition switch in the START position, and provided that the IPDM E/R receives a starter relay ON sig-
nal from the CAN lines, the IPDM E/R is energized and power is supplied:

from ignition switch terminal 5

to IPDM E/R terminal 4 and

through IPDM E/R terminal 3

to starter motor terminal 1.
The starter motor plunger closes and provides a closed circuit between the battery and starter motor. The
starter motor is grounded to the engine block. With power and ground supplied, cranking occurs and the
engine starts.

Trouble Diagnosis with Battery/Starting/Charging System TesterAKS0079E
NOTE:
To ensure a complete and thorough diagnosis, the battery, starter and alternator test segments must be done
as a set from start to finish.
1. Turn off all loads on the vehicle electrical system.
2. Perform battery test with Battery/Starting/Charging system
tester. Refer to SC-6, "
Trouble Diagnosis with Battery/Starting/
Charging System Tester" .
3. Press “ENTER” to begin the starting system test.
4. Start the engine.
5. Diagnosis result is displayed on the tester. Refer to SC-13,
"DIAGNOSTIC RESULT ITEM CHART" .
NOTE:

If the starter performs normally but the engine does not start,
perform engine diagnosis.

For intermittent “NO CRANK” or “NO STARTER OPERA-
TION” incidents, refer to SC-16, "
