plug holes.
b. Retest compression.
IIf adding oil helps compression, piston rings may be worn
or damaged. If so, replace piston rings after checking pis-
ton.
IIf pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or seating
improperly. Inspect and repair valve and valve seat. (Refer
to SDS, EM-76 and EM-79.) If valve or valve seat is dam-
aged excessively, replace them.
IIf compression stays low in two cylinders that are next to
each other:
a) The cylinder head gasket may be leaking, or
b) Both cylinders may have valve component damage. Inspect
and repair as necessary.
15. Install parts in reverse order of removal.
16. Perform ªSelf-diagnosis Procedureº referring to EC-72, ªHow to
Erase DTCº if any DTC appears.

Removal and InstallationNBFE0004WARNING:
When replacing fuel line parts, be sure to observe the follow-
ing:
IPut a ªCAUTION: INFLAMMABLEº sign in workshop.
IDo not smoke while servicing fuel system. Keep open
flames and sparks away from work area.
IBe sure to furnish the workshop with a CO
2fire extin-
guisher.
CAUTION:
IBefore removing fuel line parts, carry out the following
procedures:
a) Put drained fuel in an explosion-proof container and put
lid on securely.
b) Release fuel pressure from fuel line. Refer to MA-16,
ªChanging Fuel Filterº.
c) Disconnect battery ground cable.
IAlways replace O-ring with new ones.
IDo not kink or twist hose and tube when they are installed.
IDo not tighten hose clamps excessively to avoid damag-
ing hoses.
IWhen installing fuel check valve, be careful of its desig-
nated direction. Refer to EC-32, ªEVAPORATIVE EMIS-
SION SYSTEMº.
IAfter installation, run engine and check for fuel leaks at
connections.

IClean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or solvent
prior to inspection or assembly.
IReplace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking washers,
cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new ones.
IReplace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and
needle bearings as a set.
IArrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their
assembled locations and sequence.
IDo not touch the terminals of electrical components which use
microcomputers (such as ECMs).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic components.
IAfter disconnecting vacuum or air hoses, attach a tag to indi-
cate the proper connection.
IUse only the fluids and lubricants specified in this manual.
IUse approved bonding agent, sealants or their equivalents
when required.
IUse tools and recommended special tools where specified for
safe and efficient service repairs.
IWhen repairing the fuel, oil, water, vacuum or exhaust
systems, check all affected lines for leaks.
IDispose of drained oil or the solvent used for cleaning parts in
an appropriate manner.
WARNING:
To prevent ECM from storing the diagnostic trouble codes, do
not carelessly disconnect the harness connectors which are
related to the engine control system and TCM (Transmission
Control Module) system. The connectors should be discon-
nected only when working according to the WORK FLOW of
TROUBLE DIAGNOSES in EC and AT sections.
SGI787
PRECAUTIONS FOR MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION
SYSTEM OR ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM
NBGI0001S03IBefore connecting or disconnecting any harness connector for
the multiport fuel injection system or ECM (Engine Control
Module):
Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
Disconnect negative battery terminal.
Otherwise, there may be damage to ECM.
IBefore disconnecting pressurized fuel line from fuel pump to
injectors, be sure to release fuel pressure.
IBe careful not to jar components such as ECM and mass air
flow sensor.
PRECAUTIONS FOR THREE WAY CATALYSTNBGI0001S04If a large amount of unburned fuel flows into the catalyst, the cata-
lyst temperature will be excessively high. To prevent this, follow the
instructions below:
IUse unleaded gasoline only. Leaded gasoline will seriously
damage the three way catalyst.
IWhen checking for ignition spark or measuring engine
compression, make tests quickly and only when necessary.
IDo not run engine when the fuel tank level is low, otherwise the
engine may misfire causing damage to the catalyst.
