lgnition Timing Inspection and Setting
2.
1.Check the idle speed, and adjust it if necessary (see
section 1 1).
Pull out the service check connector 2P (BRN and
BLK wires) from the connector holder located under
the dash on the front passenger side, then connect
the scs service connector (P/N 07PAz - 0010100) to
it.
Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with
no load (A/T in N or E, Mff in neutral) until the
radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
Connect the timing light to the No. I ignition wire,
then point the light toward the pointer on the timing
belt cover.
Check the ignition timing in no load conditions:
headlights, blower fan, rear window defogger, and
air conditioner are not operating.

Loosen the distributor mounting bolts, and turn the
distributor ignition (Dl) housing counterclockwise to
advance the timing or clockwise to retard the tim-

Actuator Cable Adiustment
'1.Check that the actuator cable operates smoothly
with no binding or sticking.
Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with
no load (A,/T in E or E position, M/T in neutral)
until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
Measure the amount of movement of the actuator
rod until ths cable pulls on the accelerator lever
(engine speed starts to increase). Free play should
be 11 t 1.0 mm (0.43 i 0.04 in).
LOCKNUT FREE PLAY: 11 t 1.0 mm

lf free play is not within specs, loosen the locknut,
and turn the adjusting nut as requirsd,
