A/G System Service
Performance Test
The performance test will help determine if the air con-
ditioner system is operating within specitications.
Only use service equipment that is U.L.-listed and is cer-
tified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to remove
HFC-134a {R-134a) from the air conditioner system.
CAUTION: Exposure to air conditioner relrig€rant and
lubricant vapor ot mist can irritate eyes, nose and
throat. Avoid breathing the air conditioner rstrigerant
and lubricant vapor or mi3t.
It accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work
area before resuming service.
R-134a service equipment or vehicle air conditioner sys-
tems should not be pressure tested or leak tested with
comPressed atr.

syst€ms.
Additional health and safety information may be
obtained from the refrigerant and lubricant manufactur-
ers.
1. Connect a R-134a refrigerant Recovery/Recycling/
Charging System to the car, as shown, iollowing
the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
2. Insert a thermometer in the center vent outlet.
Determine the relative humidity and air temperature
by calling the local weather information line,
3. Test conditions:
. Avoid direct sunlight.
. Open hood.
. Open front doors
. Set the temperature control lever to MAX COOL,
the mode control switch on VENT and the recir-
culation control switch on RECIRCULATE.
. Slide the heater fan switch on MAX
. Run the engine at 1,500 rPm
. No driver or passengers in vehicle.
4. After running the air conditioning for 10 minutes
under the above test conditions. read the delivery
temperature from the thermometer in the dash vent
and the high and low system pressure from the A,/C
gauges.

5. Check lor 8n op€n in the BLKMHT wire circuit be-
tween the staner and ignition switch, and con-
nectors.
6. Check the ignition switch (see page 23-70).
7, On cars with automatic transmission, check the A/Tgear position switch (neutral position switchl and
connector. On cars with manualtransmission, check
the staner cut relay, clutch interlock switch, and
connectors.
NOTE: Check the No. 39 (5O A) fuse in the under-hood
fuse/relay box for the starter cut relay.
Check tor Woar and Damago:
The starter should crank the engine smoothly and stead-
ily. lf th€ startsr engages, but cranks the engine errati-
cally, remove it. Inspect the starter, drive gear, and
flywheel ring gesr for damage.
a Check the drive gear overunning clutch for binding
or slipping when the armature is rotated with the drivegear held. Replace the gesrs if damaged.
Check Cranking Voltago 8nd Current Draw:
Cranking voltage should be no less than 8.O volts.
Current draw should be no more than 360 amperes.
lf cranking voltag€ is too low, or current draw too high,
check for:
a Fully charged battery
a Open circuit in starter armature commutatot segments
a Starter armature dragging
a Shoned armature winding
a Excessive drag in engine
Chack Cranking rpm:
Engine spsod during cranking should be above 1O0 rpm.
lf spe6d is too low, ch€ck for:
a Loose battsry or starter teminals
a Excessively worn starter brushes
a Open circuit in commutator segments
a Dirty or damaged helical spline or drive gear
a Defective drive gear overrunning clutch
Chock StErtor Disongagomoni:
Press the clutch pedal allth€ way in (M/T), turn the ioni-
tion switch to "lll" and rolease to "11".
The starter drive gear should disengage from the tlywheel
ring gear. When you rolease the key.
lf the drive gear hangs up on th€ flywheel ring gear, check
for:
a Solenoid plunger and switch malfunction
a Dirty drive gear assembly or damaged overrunning
clutch

cal gauge comes to the "O" mark.
1. Open the hood.
2. Check that both the horizontal and vertical gauge
read " O" .
. lf the gauges rcad "O", check headlight aiming
with the aiming charts on page 23-163. (lf aim-
