NAVIGATION SYSTEM
Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
GPS (Global Positioning System)
GPS (Global Positioning System) was developed for and is con-
trolled by the US Department of Defense. The system utilizes GPS
satellites (NAVSTAR), sending out radio waves while flying on an
orbit around the earth at an altitude of approximately 21,000 km
(13,100 miles).
The GPS receiver calculates the vehicle's position in three dimen-
sions (latitude/longitude/altitude) according to the time lag of the
radio waves received from four or more GPS satellites (three-dimen-
sional positioning). If radio waves were received only from three
GPS satellites, the GPS receiver calculates the vehicle's position in
two dimensions (latitude/longitude), and utilize the altitude data cal-
culated previously with radio waves from four or more GPS satellites
(two-dimensional positioning).
Position correction by GPS is not available while the vehicle is stopped.
Accuracy of GPS will deteriorate under the following conditions:

In two-dimensional positioning, GPS accuracy will deteriorate when altitude of the vehicle position
changes.

The accuracy can be even lower depending on the arrangement of the GPS satellites utilized for the posi-
tioning.

Position detection is not possible when vehicle is in an area where radio waves from the GPS satellite do
not reach, such as in a tunnel, parking lot in a building, and under an elevated highway. Radio waves from
the GPS satellites may not be received when some object is located over the GPS antenna.
NOTE:

Even a high-precision three dimensional positioning, the detection result has an error about 10 m (30ft).

Because the signals of GPS satellite is controlled by the Tracking and Control Center in the United States,
the accuracy may be degraded lower intentionally or the radio waves may stop.

DESCRIPTION

All dimensions indicated in the figures are actual.

When using a tracking gauge, adjust both pointers to equal length. Then check the pointers and gauge
itself to make sure there is no free play.

When a measuring tape is used, check to be sure there is no elongation, twisting or bending.

Measurements should be taken at the center of the mounting holes.

An asterisk (*) following the value at the measuring point indicates that the measuring point on the other
side is symmetrically the same value.

The coordinates of the measurement points are the distances measured from the standard line of ″X ″, ″Y ″
and ″Z ″.

3. Attach liquid gasket tube to the tube presser [SST: WS39930000 (—)].
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-48, "
RECOMMENDED CHEMICAL PRODUCTS AND
SEALANTS" .
4. Apply liquid gasket without breaks to the specified location with the specified dimensions.

If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply liq-
uid gasket to the groove.

As for the bolt holes, normally apply liquid gasket inside the
holes. Occasionally, it should be applied outside the holes.
Make sure to read the text of service manual.

Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.

If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.

Do not retighten after mounting bolts and nuts the installation.

After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill
engine oil and engine coolant.
CAUTION:
If there are specific instructions in this manual, observe them.

8. Install valve collet.

Compress valve spring with the valve spring compressor, the
attachment and the adapter (SST). Install valve collet with a
magnet hand.
CAUTION:
When working, take care not to damage valve lifter holes.

Tap valve stem edge lightly with plastic hammer after installa-
tion to check its installed condition.
9. Install valve lifter.

Install it in the original position.
10. Install spark plug tube.

Press-fit spark plug tube as follows:
a. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to cylinder head mounting hole.
b. Apply sealant to area within approximately 12 mm (0.47 in) from edge of spark plug tube press-fit side. Use Genuine High Strength Locking Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-48, "
RECOMMENDED
CHEMICAL PRODUCTS AND SEALANTS" .
c. Using drift, press-fit spark plug tube so that its height “H” is as specified in the figure.
CAUTION:

When press-fitting, take care not to deform spark plug
tube.

After press-fitting, wipe off liquid gasket protruding onto
cylinder-head upper face.
11. Install spark plug with spark plug wrench (commercial service tool).
