2. Check th6 IAB control valve for smooth movement.
3. With the engine at idle, check that @ot the IAB control valve is in close contact with the stoppsr when vacuum
hose is disconnected.

Emission Control System
SystemDescription
The emission control system includes a Three Way Cata-
lytic Convener (TWC), Positive Crankcase Ventilation(PCV) system and Evaporstive Emission {EVAP) Contfol
syst€m. The emission control system is designed to meet
federsl and stats emission standards.

Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,OOO rpm with
no load (A/T in @ or@ position, M/T in neutral) until
the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle,
Connect a tachometer.
Check and adiust the idle speed, if necessary (sss
page 1 1-95).
Warm up and calibrate the CO meter according to
the meter manutacturer's inst.uctions.
Check idle CO with the headlights, hester blower,
rear window defogger, cooling fan, and air condition-

NOTE: (Canada) Pull the parking br8ke lever up.
Stan the engine, then check that the headlights are
off.
CO meter should indicate 0.1 maximum.

Emission Control System
Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCVI System
Description
The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system is
designed to prevent blow-by gas {rom escaping to the
atmosphsre. The PCV valve contains a spring-loadsd
plunger. When the Bngine starts, the plunger in the PCV
valve is lifted in proportion to intake manifold vacuum
and the blow-by gas is drawn directly into th€ intak€
manifold.

At idle, mak6 sur€ th6fe is a clicking sound from th6

Troubleshooting
General Troubleshooting
Check the following betore you begin:
. Has the susp€nsion been modified in a way that would affect steering?. Are tire sizes and air pressure correct?
. ls the steering whe€l original squipment or equivalent?
. ls the power steering pump belt properly adiusted?
o ls steering fluid reservoir filled to proper level?
o ls the engine idle speed correct and steady?

lnspection and Adjustment
Pump Pressure Check
Check the fluid pressure as follows to determine
whether the trouble is in the pump or gearbox.
NOTE: First check the power steering fluid level and
pump belt tension,

pump outlet.
2, Connect the hose joint sdapter to the power steer-
ing pressure gauge, then connect the outlet hose to
the adaotor.
3. Instsll the power steering pressure gauge to the

1.
Start the engine and let it idle.
Turn the stee.ing wheel from lock-to-lock several
times to warm the fluid to operating temperature.
Measure steady-state fluid pressure while idling
with the shut-off valve fully open. lf the pump is in
good condition, the gauge should read less than
1500 kpa (15 kgf/cm,,213 psi).
lf it reads high, check the feed line or valve body
unit (see General Troubleshooting l7-10).
Close the shut-off valve. then close the pressure
control valve gradually until the pressure gauge
needle is stabl6, Read the pressure.
lmmediately open the shut-off valve fully.
CAUTION: Do not keep the shut-ott valvs closod
moro thgn 5 soconds or th9 pump could b6 dam"
agod by over-h6ating,
lf the pump is in good condition, the gauge should
read at least 6.400 - 7,400 kpa (65 - 75 kgIlcm,,924- 1,067 psi). A low reading means pump output is
too low for full assist. Repair or replace the pump.
