INSPECTION
1. INSPECT SPARK PLUG
NOTICE:
Do not use a wire brush for cleaning.
Do not attempt to adjust the electrode gap of a used
spark plug.
Spark plug should be replaced every 100,000 km
(60,000 miles).
(a) Check the electrode. (1) Using an ohmmeter, measure the insulation resis-
tance.
Correct insulation resistance: 10 M or more
If the resistance is less then the specified value, proceed to step
(d).
HINT:
If the ohmmeter is not available, do the following inspection
instead.
(b) Alternative inspection: (1) Quickly accelerate the engine to 4,000 rpm 5 times.
(2) Remove the spark plug.
(3) Visually check the spark plug.
If a kink or twist as shown in the illustration on the left is found
on the spark plug, replace it with a new one.
(4) If the electrode is dry...OK.
(5) If the electrode is wet...Proceed to step (e).
(6) Reinstall the spark plug.
(c) Check the spark plug for any damage on its thread and insulator.
If there is damage, replace the spark plug.
Recommended spark plug:

(d) Check the spark plug electrode gap.
Maximum electrode gap for used spark plug:
1.3 mm (0.051 in.)
If the gap is greater than maximum, replace the spark plug. Correct electrode gap for new spark plug:
1.0 to 1.1 mm (0.039 to 0.043 in.)
(e) Clean the spark plugs.
If the electrode has traces of wet carbon, clean the electrode
with a spark plug cleaner then dry it. Air pressure: Blow 588 kPa (6 kgf/cm
2, 85 psi)
Duration: 20 seconds or less
HINT:
If there are traces of oil, remove them with gasoline before using
the spark plug cleaner.

If DTC is present, perform a troubleshooting in accordance with a proced\
ure for that DTC.
(b)Check that spark occurs. (1)Remove the cylinder head cover No. 2. (See page 14±6)
(2) Remove the ignition coils (with igniter).
(3) Using a 16mm (0.63 in) plug wrench, remove the spark plugs.
(4) Install the spark plugs to each ignition coil (with igniter) and connect the \
ignition coil connectors.
(5) Disconnect the 4 injector connectors.
(6) Ground the spark plugs.
(7) Check if spark occurs at each spark plug while engine is being cranked.

1. CHECK BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
(a) Check the electrolyte quantity of each cell.
(1) If the electrolyte is under the low level, replace the battery (or add di\
stilled water if possible) andcheck the charging system.
2. CHECK BATTERY VOLTAGE
(a) If it has not been 20 minutes since you drove the vehicleor since the engine was stopped, turn the ignition switch
and the electrical system (headlight, blower motor, rear
defogger etc.) to the on position for 60 seconds. This will
remove the surface charge on the battery.
(b) Turn off the ignition switch and the electrical systems.
(c) Measure the battery voltage between the negative (±) and positive (+) terminals of the battery.
Standard voltage: 12.5 to 12.9 V at 20 C (68 F)
HINT:
If the voltage is less than specification, charge the battery.
(d) Check the indicator as shown in the illustration.

3. CHECK BATTERY TERMINALS, FUSIBLE LINK AND FUSES
(a) Check that the battery terminals are not loosened or corroded.
(b) Check the fusible links, high±current fuses and regular fuses.
4. INSPECT DRIVE BELT
(a) Visually check the belt for excessive wear, frayed cordsetc.
HINT:
If any defect found, replace the drive belt.
Cracks on the rib side of a belt are considered acceptable.
If the belt has chunks missing from the ribs, it should be
replaced.

HINT:
Check with your hand to confirm that the belt has not slipped out
of the groove on the bottom of the pulley.
5. VISUALLY CHECK GENERATOR WIRING
(a) Check that the wiring is in good condition.
6. LISTEN FOR ABNORMAL NOISES FROM GENERATOR
(a) Check that there is no abnormal noise from the generator while the engin\
e is running.
7. INSPECT CHARGE WARNING LIGHT CIRCUIT
(a) Turn the ignition switch ON. Check that the charge warning light comes on\
.
(b) Start the engine and check that the light goes off.
HINT:
If the light does not operate as specified, troubleshoot the charge warn\
ing light circuit. 8. INSPECT CHARGING CIRCUIT WITHOUT LOAD
(a) According to the following procedure, connect an amme-
ter and voltmeter as shown in the illustration.
(1) Disconnect the wire from terminal B of the generatorand connect it to the negative (±) lead of the amme-
ter.
(2) Connect the positive (+) lead of the ammeter to ter- minal B of the generator
(3) Connect the positive (+) lead of the voltmeter to ter- minal B of the generator.
(4) Ground the negative (±) lead of the voltmeter.
(b) Check the charging circuit. (1) Keep the engine speed at 2,000 rpm, check thereading on the ammeter and voltmeter.
Standard amperage: 10 A or less
Standard voltage: 12.9 to 14.9 V
HINT:
If the voltmeter reading is more than standard voltage, re-
place the voltage regulator.
If the voltmeter reading is less than the standard voltage,
check the voltage regulator and generator as follows:
9. INSPECT CHARGING CIRCUIT WITH LOAD
(a) Keep the engine speed at 2,000 rpm, turn on the high beam headlights and\
turn the heater blower switch to the ºHIº position.
(b) Check the reading on the ammeter. Standard amperage: 30 A or more
HINT:
If the ammeter reading is less than standard amperage, repair the genera\
tor.
If the battery is fully charged, the indication will sometimes be less t\
han standard amperage.
