Exhaust System InspectionS7RS0B0206006
WARNING!
To avoid danger of being burned, do not
touch exhaust system when it is still hot.
Any service on exhaust system should be
performed when it is cool.

When carrying out periodic maintenance, or the vehicle
is raised for other service, check exhaust system as
follows:
• Check rubber mountings for damage, deterioration, and out of position.
• Check exhaust system for leakage, loose connections, dents and damages.
If bolts or nuts are loose, tighten them to specification.
• Check nearby body areas for damaged, missing or mispositioned parts, ope n seams, holes, loose
connections or other defects which could permit
exhaust fumes to seep into the vehicle.
• Make sure that exhaust system components have enough clearance from the underbody to avoid
overheating and possible damage to floor carpet.
• Any defects should be fixed at once.
Spark Plug ReplacementS7RS0B0206007
Replace spark plugs with new ones referring to “Spark
Plug Removal and Installation in Section 1H”.
Air Cleaner Filter InspectionS7RS0B0206008
1) Remove air cleaner case clamps.
2) Take air cleaner filter out of case.
3) Check that filter is not excessively dirty, damaged or oily, clean filter with compressed air from air outlet
side of filter.
4) Install air cleaner filter and Clamp cap securely.
Air Cleaner Filter ReplacementS7RS0B0206009
Replace air cleaner filter with new one according to
Steps 1), 2) and 4) of “Air Cleaner Filter Inspection”.
Fuel Lines and Connections InspectionS7RS0B0206010
Visually inspect fuel lines and connections for evidence
of fuel leakage, hose cracking and damage. Make sure
all clamps are secure.
Repair leaky joints, if any.
Replace hoses that are suspected of being cracked.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 1A-40 Engine General Information and Diagnosis:
11Check fuel pump for operation
Was fuel pump operating sou nd heard from fuel filler for
about 2 seconds after ignition switch ON and stop? Go to “Fuel Pressure
Check”.
Go to “Fuel Pump and
Its Circuit Check”.
12 Check ignition spark
1) Disconnect injector couplers.
2) Remove spark plugs and connect them to high-tension
cords or ignition coil assemblies.
3) Ground spark plugs.
4) Crank engine and check if each spark plug sparks.
Is it in good condition? Go to Step 13. Go to “Ignition Spark
Test in Section 1H”.
13 Check fuel injector for operation
1) Install spark plugs and connect injector connectors.
2) Using sound scope (1), check operating sound of each
injector (2) when cranking engine.
Was injector operating sound heard from all injectors? Go to “Engine Symptom
Diagnosis”.
Go to “Fuel Injector
Circuit Check”.
