Inspection and Adjustment
Steering Operation
Place the front wheels in the straight ahead position,
and measure the distance the steering wheel can beturned without moving the front wheels.
ROTATIONAL PLAY: 0 - 10 mm l0 - 0.39 inl
lf the play exceeds the service limit. perform rack guide
adjustment (see page 17-33).
lf the play is still excessive after rack guide adjustment.inspect the steering linkage and gearbox as describedon the nel(t pag€.

Vehicle Parked
1. Check the power steering fluid level (see page 17-33) and pump belt tension (see page 17-32).
2. Start the engine, allow it to idle. and turn the steer-ing wheel from lock-tolock several times to warm
up the fluid.
3. Attach a spring scale to the steering wheel. With theengine idling and the vehicle on a clean, dry floor,pull the scale as shown and read it as soon as thetires begin to turn.
The scale should read no more than 29 N (3.0 kgf.
6.6 lbf). lf it reads more, check the gearbox andpump,

After tightening the cylinder end' stake the point of
the cylinder housing shown below For'98 -'00
models go to step 51.
NOTE: Stake the cylinder in the position opposite
from where the stake was removed during disas-
semoly.
Be careful not to damage
the bushing when inserting
the cylinder end.
49. Select the 32 mm shim(s) ('96 -'97 model only)'
NOTE: Only reinstall the original 32 mm shim(s)
when the steering gearbox is reassembled without
replacing the pinion shatt, valve housing, and gear
box housing with new ones.
lf the pinion shaft, valve housing, and gearbox
housing are replaced, select the new shim{s) as fol-
lows.
Shim selection:
a. Set the four 32 mm shims on the bearing surface of
the gearbox housing. Total thickness of the four
shims should equal no more than 0 70 mm'
Shim set: four 32 mm shims (Thickness: 010 mm'
0.15 mm, 0.20 mm, 0.25 mm respectivelyl
CAUTION: Th€ four 32 mm shims do not have
thickness identification marks Measure the thick-
ness of each shim using a micrometsr, and mark
the shim lor identification.
