TROUBLESHOOTING
When checking and correcting engine troubles, it is
important to start with inspection of the basic
systems.
In case you have such troubles as (1) engine start
failure, (2) rough idling or (3) poor acceleration,
therefore, you should first check the following basic
systems:
(1) Power supply
0 Batteryl
Fusible linkl
Fuse
(2) Body ground
(3) Fuel supplyl
Fuel linel
Fuel filter
l
Fuel pump
N14EBBH
(4) Ignition systeml
Spark plugsl
High tension cablel Distributor
<1.8L Engine>
l
Crank angle sensor <2.0L DOHC Engine>
0 Ignition coil
(5) Emission control systeml
Crankcase ventilation systeml
Exhaust gas recirculation systeml
Vacuum leak
(6) Others
0 Ignition timing
l
Idle speed
Troubles with the MPI system are often caused by
poor contact of harness connector. It is, therefore,
important to check harness connector contact.

FUEL FILTERREMOVAL AND INSTALLATION3.2.INSTALLATION OF FUEL FILTER
(1) When installing the fuel filter, first temporarily install the
filter to the filter bracket; then insert the main pipe at
‘*the connector part of the filter, and manually screw in
..the main pipe’s flare nut.
(2) Holding the fuel filter nut, tighten the fuel main pipe’s
flare nut and eye bolt at the specified torque. Then
tighten the filter to the bracket.

Apply engine oil to the hose union.
Insert the hose, being careful not to damage the O-ring, andtighten securely.
Caution
Because there is high pressure applied between the
fuel pump and the injection mixer, be especially sure
that there is no fuel leakage in this area.

4.Disconnect the high-tension cable, and then while operating
the starting motor intermittently, turn the steering wheel all;
the way to the left and right several times to drain all of the
fluid.
Caution, 35
Be careful not to position thq high-tension able ye&r the
carburetor or the delivery pipe.5. Connect the return hoses securely, and then
secur& it ,with
the clip.6. Fill the oil reservoir with the specified fluid up
td the Ibwerposition of the filter, and then bleed the air.

mission fluid “DEXRON” or “DEXRON II”Fluid level change:

BLEEDINGNlSFKAG
1.Jack up the front wheels and support them by using a floor
stand.2. Manually turn the oil pump pulley a few times.
3. Turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and right
several times.
4.Disconnect the high-tension cable, and then, while operatingthe starting motor intermittently, turn the steering wheel all
the way to the left and right several times
(for 1-5 to 20
seconds).
Caution
1. During air bleeding, replenish the fluid supply so thatthe level never falls below the lower positiin
@f the
eiter.I .“:
2. If air bleeding is done while engine is runnind, ‘the air
will be
brokeir up and absorbed intti the fluid;‘?ti’ sureto do the bleeding only while cranking.
5.Connect the ignition cable, and then start the engine (idling).6. Turn the steering wheel to the left and right until there are
no air bubbles in the oil reservoir.
7. Confirm that the fluid is not milky, and that the level is
upito the specified position on the level gauge.
8.Confirm that there is very little change in the fluid level whenthe steering wheel is turned left and right.
9.Check whether or not the change in the fluid level is within5 mm
(.2 in.) when the engine is stopped and when it is
running.
Caution
1.If the change of the fluid level is 5 mm I.2 in.) or more,
the air has not been completely bled from the system,
and thus must be bled completely.2. If the fluid level rises suddenly after the engine is
stopped, the air has not been completely bled.
3. If air bleeding is not complete, there will be abnormal
noises from the pump and the flow-control valve, and
this
condition could cause a lessening of the life of the
pump, etc.

AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE - Service Adjustment Procedures21-2138. Engage the special tool (outer) on the lock nut.
Rotating the outer cyliner clockwise and the inner cylinder
counterclockwise, unlock the lock nut and special tool
(inner).Caution
When unlocking the lock, apply equal force to bothtools.
9.Tighten the lock nut by hand until the lock nut contacts the
piston. Then, using the torque wrench, tighten to the
specified torque.
Lock nut: 25-32 Nm (18-23 ft.lbs.)
Caution
If it is rapidly tightened with the socket wrench or
torque wrench, the lock nut and adjusting rod may
rotate together.
10. Remove the special tool which fastens the piston.
Attach the plug to the outlet of the low reverse pressure.
LINE PRESSURE ADJUSTMENTN2lFSABl
1. Drain out the automatic transaxle fluid.
2. Remove the oil pan.
3. Remove the oil filter.
4. Remove the oil-temperature sensor.
5. Press the solenoid valve harness grommet and connector
into the transaxle case.
6. Remove the valve body assembly. The manual valve can
come out, so be careful not to drop it.

When the adjustment screw is turned to the right, the
reducing pressure becomes lower; when it is turned to the
left, it becomes higher.
