lf the problem is not corrected byadiusting the rack guide, adjustthe front wheel alignment lseesection 181.
Check the rack guide for properadiustment (see page 17 33).
Check the rack guide for properadjustment (see page 17-33).
Rack guide is adjusted properly.
lfthe problem is not corrected byadjusting the rack guide, replacethe gearbox.Check the belt for slippage andaolust as necessary {see page11 32).
A and B cylinder lines are nor-mal, check wheel alignment (seesection 18).
Wheel alignment is abnormal,adjust as needed.
Wheel alignment is normal.Check the steering wheel opera-tion and power assist check {seepage lT-30).
It the measurements are out ofspecifications, adjust the ra ckguide.

Steering Column
Inspection
NOTE: The tilt steering column type is shown; the con-
ventional steering column is similar except for the tilt
mechantsm.
Check the steering column ball bearing and the steer-ing joint bearings for play and proper movement. lf
there is noise or if there is excessive play, replace the
steering column as an assembly.
Check the retaining collar for damage. lf it is dam-
aged, replace the retaining collar.
Check the absorbing plates, absorbing plate
and sliding capsules for distonion or breakage.

Preload: 70 - 90 N (7 - 9 kgf. 15 - 20 lbf)
lf the measurement is out of the specification,
adjust the pfeload using the following procedures.
a. Loosen the tilt lever, and set the steering column
in the neutral position.
b. Remove the 6 mm lock bolt and remove the stop.
c. Adjust the preload by turning the tilt lock bolt left
or flgnr.
d. Pull up the tilt lever to the uppermost position and
install the stop. Check the preload again. lf the
measurement is still out of specification, repeat
the above procedures "a" through "c" to adjust.
CAUTION: Be caretul not to loosen tho tilt lever

NOTE: For proper inspection/adjustment of the wheel
alignment check and adjust the following before check-
ing the alignment.
. Check that the suspension is not modified.
. Check the tire size and tire pressure.
. Check the runout of the wheels and tires.
. Check the suspension ball ioints. {Hold a wheel with
your hands and move it up and down and right and
left to check for wobbling.)
Inspection
NOTE: Use commercia lly-available computerized four
wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel align-
ment {caster. camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow
the equiDment manufacturer's instructions.
Check the caster angle.
