ENGINE OIL 
Inspection 
1. Be sure the vehicle is on level ground. 
2. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature and 
stop it. 
3. Wait for 5 minutes. 
4. Remove the oil level gauge and check the oil level and con- 
dition. 
5. Add or replace oil if necessary. 
Note 
l The distance between the L and F marks on the level 
gauge represents 0.8 liter (0.85 US qt, 0.70 Imp qt). 
ENGINE COOLANT 
Inspection 
Coolant level (engine cold) 
Warning 
l Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is 
hot. 
l Wrap a thick cloth around the cap when removing it. 
1. Verify that the coolant level is near the radiator filler neck. 
2. Remove the coolant level gauge and check the coolant level. 
3. Add coolant if necessary. 
Coolant quality 
1. Verify that there is no buildup of rust or scale around the 
radiator cap or radiator filler neck. 
2. Verify that the coolant is free of oil. 
3. Replace the coolant if necessary. 
DRIVE BELT 
Inspection 
1. Check the drive belts for wear, cracks, and fraying. Replace 
if necessary. 
2. Verify that the drive belts are correctly mounted on the 
pulleys.

3. Check the drive belt deflection by applying moderate pres- 
sure (98 N, 
10 kg, 22 lb) midway between the pulleys. 
Note 
l Measure the belt deflection between the specified 
pulleys. 
l A belt is considered “New” if it has been used on 
a running engine for less than five minutes. 
Set the deflection specified below accordingly. 
l Check the belt deflectlon when the engine is cold, 
or at least 30 minutes after the engine has stopped.

Cautlon 
l If a new belt is used, adjust the belt deflection at 
the midpoint of new belt specification. 
l A belt is considered “New” If it has been used on 
a runnlng engine for less than five minutes. 
1. Alternator belt 
(1) Loosen the alternator mounting bolt @ and adjusting 
lock bolt @. 
(2) Lever the alternator outward and apply tension to the

Oil leakage in oil passage 
Oil leakage in HLA 
Insufficient oil pressure 
Faulty HLA

Deteriorated oil Action Run engine 2000-3000 rpm. 
If noise stops after 2 second-10 
minutes(*), HLA is normal. 
If not, replace HLA. 
* Time required for engine oil to circu- 
late within engine, includes tolerance 
for engine oil condition and ambient 
temperature. 
Check oil pressure. 
If lower than specification, check for 
cause. Oil pressure; 294-392 kPa

Press down HLA by hand. 
If it does not move, HLA is normal. 
If it moves, replace HLA. 
Measure valve clearance. 
If more than Omm (0 in), replace HLA. 
Check oil level.
