Spark Plug Inspection
Inspect the electrodes and ceramic insulator for:
. lmproper gap. Oil-fouling. Carbon deposits. Cracked centerelectrode insulator
Burned or worn electrodes may be caused by:
. Advanced ignition timing
. Loose spark plug
. Plug heat range too hot
. Insufficient cooling
Fouled plug may be caused by:
. Retarded ignition timing
. Oil in combustion chamber
. Incorrect spark plug gap
. Plug heat range too cold
. Excessive idling/low speed runnang
. Clogged air cleaner element
. Deteriorated ignition wires
I
2. Check the electrode gaP.
. Adjust the gap with a suitable gapping tool.
Electrode Gap
Standard 1.1 3 ' mm (0.043 Loo. in)
Replace the plug if the center electrode is rounded
as shown below:

Apply a small quantity of anti-seize compound to
the plug threads, and screw the plugs into the cylin-
der head finger-tight. Then torque them to 18 N'm
(1.8 kgf.m. 13lbf.ft).

Valve Guides
Valve Movement
1. Measure the guide-to-stem clearance with a dial
indicator while rocking the stem in the direction of
normal thrust (wobble method),
lntake Valve Stem-to-Guide Clearance:
Standard (Newl: 0.04 - 0.10 mm
(0.002 - 0.004 in)
Service Limit 0.16 mm (0.006 in)
Exhaust Valve Stem-to-Guide Clearance:
Standard {Newl: 0.10 - 0.16 mm
(0.004 - 0.006 inl
Service Limit: 0,22 mm (0.009 inl
lf the measurement exceeds the service limit,
recheck using a new valve.
lf the measurement is now within the service limit,
reassemble using a new valve.
lf the measurement still exceeds the limit, subtract the
O.D. of the valve stem, measured with a micrometer,
from the l.D. of the valve guide, measured with an
inside micrometer or ball gauge.
Take the measurements in three places along the
valve stem and three places inside the valve guide
The difference between the largest guide measure-
ment and the smallest stem measurement should
not exceed the service limit.
lntake Valve Stem-to-Guide Clearance:
Standard (New): 0.02 - 0.05 mm
{0.001 - 0.002 in)
Service Limit: 0.08 mm (0.003 in)
Exhaust Valve Stem-to-Guide Clearance:
Standard (New): 0.05 - 0.08 mm
(0.002 - 0.003 in)
Service Limit: 0.11 mm (0.004 in)

Replacement
1. As illustrated below, use a commercially available
air-impact valve guide driver attachment modified
to fit the diameter of the valve guides. In most
cases, the same procedure can be done using the
sDecial tool and a conventional hammer.

Select the proper replacement guides. and chill
them in the freezer section of a refrigerator for
about an hour.
Use a hot plate or oven to evenly heat the cylinder
head to 300"F (150"C). Monitor the temperature with
a cooking thermometer. Do not get the head hofter
than 300'F (150"C); excessive heat may loosen the
valve seaIs.

Radiator Fan Switch Testing
E@ Removing the radiator fan switch whilethe engine is hot can cause the coolant to spray out, seri-ously scalding you. Always let the enginc and radiatorcool down before removing the radiator fan switch.
1. Remove the radiator fan switch from the thermostathousing (see page 10 '10).
2. Suspend the radiator fan switch in a container ofwater as shown.
Heat the water, and check the temperature with athermometer. Do not let the thermometer touch thebottom of the hot container.
Measure the continuity between the A and B termi-nals according to the table.
Bleed the air from the cooling system after installingthe radiator fan switch (see page 10-5).

Transmission
Cooler Flushing
@@ To prevent in;ury to face and eyos, atwayswear safety glasses ot a face shield when using thetlansmission flusher.
This procedure should be performed before reinstallingthe transmission.
2.
LCheck equipment for wear and cracks before using.Replace any worn or cracked components.
Using the measuring cup. fill the tank with 21 ounces{approximately 213 lull) ol biodegradable flushingfluid (J35944 - 20). Do not substitute with any otherfluid. Follow the handling procedure on the fluidcontaaner.
Secure the flusher filler cap, and pressurize theflusher with compressed air to 550 - 829 kpa (5.6 _
8.45 kgf/cm,, 80 - 120psi). The air line should beequipped with a water trap to ensure a dry air sys-tem.
Hang the flusher under the vehicle.
Attach the flusher discharge hose to the return lineof the transmission cooler using a clamp.
Connect the drain hose to the inlet line on the trans-mission cooler using a clamp.
IMPORTANT:
Securely clamp the opposite end ofthe drain hose to abucket or floor drain.

Turn on the water valve for 1O seconds. lf waterdoes not flow through the cooler, it is completelyplugged, cannot be flushed, and must be replaced.
Depress the trigger to mix the flushing fluid into thewater flow. Use the wire clip to hold the trigger down.
While flushing with the water and flushing fluid fortwo minutes, turn the air valve on for five secondsevery 15 - 20 seconds to create a surging action.AIR PRESSURE: MAX 845 kpa (8.45 kgf/cmr, t20 psi)
Turn the water valve off. Release the trigger, thenreverse the hoses to the cooler so you can flush inthe opposite direction. Repeat steps 8 through 10.
Release the trigger, and rinse the cooler with wate.for one minute.
Turn the water valve off, and the water supply off.
Turn the air valve on for two minutes, or until nomoisture is visible leaving the drain hose. Residualmoisture in the cooler or lines can damage thetransmission.
Remove the flusher from the cooler line. Attach thedrain hose to a container.
Install the transmission, and leave the drain hoseattached to the cooler line.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS}
This model has an SRS which includes a driver's airbag in the steering wheel hub, a passenger's airbag in the dashboard
above the glove box ('97,00 models). and seat belt tensioners in the seat belt retractors ('98 - 00 models). Information
necessary to safely service the SRS is included in this Service Manual. ltems marked with an asterisk (*) on the contents
page include. or are located near, SRS components. Servicing, disassembling or replacing these items will require special
precautions and tools, and should only be done by an authorized Honda dealer.
@. To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could lead to personal iniury or death in the event of 8 severe frontal
collision, all SRS service work must be performed by an authotized Honda dealer.
lmproper service procedures, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, could lead to personal iniury
caused by unintentional deployment of the airbags ('97 - 00 models), and seat belt tensioners 138 - 00 models).
Do not bump the SRS unit. Otherwise, the system may fail in case of a collision, or the airbags may deploy when the
ignition switch is ON {lll.
SRS eleqtrical wiring harnesses are identified by yellow color coding. Related components are located in the steering
column, front console, dashboard, dashboard lower panel, and in the dashboard above the glove box. Do not use elec-
tricaltest equipment on thes€ cilcuils.
