Check for continuity between the terminals in each
switch position according to the table.
. lf there is continuity, and it matches the table,
replace the cable reel.
. lf there is no continuity in one or both positions,
replace the switch.
lf all tests prove OK, reconnect the cable reel sub-

@a Make sure iacks and safety stands are placed properly
and hoist brackets are attached to the correct oosi-
tions on the engine.
. Make sure the vehicle will not roll oft stands and fall
while you are working under it.
NOTEI
. Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted sur-
faces.
o To avoid damage. unplug the wiring connectors care-
fully while holding the connector portion.
lvlark all wiring and hoses to avoid misconnection.
Also, be sure that they do not contact other wiring or
hoses, or interfere with other parts.
Secure the hood in the open position.
Disconnect the battery negative terminal first, then the
positive terminal.
Disconnect the battery cables from the under-hood

9. Perform the following checks and adjustments:. Check that the spring clip on the ends of the drive-shaft and intermediate shaft clicks into place. Usenew spring clips.. Adjust the shift cable (see section l4).. Adjust the throttle cable (see section 11).. Refill the engine with engine oil (see page g-4).
. Refill the transmission with oil or fluid (see sec-tion 13 or 14).
. Refill the radiator with engine coolant (see page
10_5).
. Bleed air from the cooling system with theheater valve open (see page l0-5).. Clean the battery posts and cable terminals withsandpaper, assemble them, then apply grease toDrevent corrosron.. Inspect for fuel leakage (see section 1l).After assembling fuel line pans, turn on the igni-tion switch (do not operate the starter) so thatthe fuel pump operates for approximately twoseconds and the fuel Iine pressurizes.
Repeat this operation two or three times, andcheck for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.

Removal
Engine removal is not required for this procedure.
l!@ Make sure iacks and safety stands are
placed properly, and hoist blackels ale attachgd to the
correct position on the engine.
NOTE:
o Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted sur-
faces.
o To avoid damage, unplug the wiring connectors care-
fully while holding the connector portion.
. To avoid damaging the cylinder head, wait until the
engine coolant temperature drops below 100"F (38'C)
before loosening the retaining bolts.
. Mark all wiring and hoses to avoid misconnection.
Also, be sure that they do not contact other wiring or
hoses, or interfere with other parts.

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).
