CHECKING COMPRESSION PRESSURE
1. Warm up engine thoroughly. Then stop engine.
2. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-46, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" .
a. Remove fuel pump fuse, and start engine.
Refer to PG-78, "
FUSE AND RELAY BOX" or fuel pump fuse location.
Let fuel pump fuse removed until the end of step 7.
b. After engine stalls, crank it two or three times to release all fuel pressure.
3. Remove ignition coil and spark plug from each cylinder.
Refer to EM-27, "
REMOVAL" .
4. Connect engine tachometer (not required in use of CONSULT-II).
5. Install compression tester with Tool into spark plug hole.
6. With accelerator pedal fully depressed, turn ignition switch to “START” for cranking. When the gauge
pointer stabilizes, read the compression pressure and engine rpm. Perform these steps to check each cyl-
inder.
Unit: kPa (kg/cm2 , psi) /rpm
CAUTION:
Always use a fully charged battery to obtain specified engine speed.
If the engine speed is out of specified range, check battery liquid for proper gravity. Check engine
speed again with normal battery gravity.
If compression pressure is below minimum value, check valve clearances and parts associated with
combustion chamber (valve, valve seat, piston, piston ring, cylinder bore, cylinder head, cylinder head
gasket). After the checking, measure compression pressure again.
If some cylinders have low compression pressure, pour small amount of engine oil into the spark plug
hole of the cylinder to re-check it for compression.
–If the added engine oil improves the compression, the piston rings may be worn out or damaged. Check
the piston rings and replace if necessary.
–If the compression pressure remains at low level despite the addition of engine oil, the valves may be
malfunctioning. Check the valves for damage. Replace the valve or valve seat accordingly.
If two adjacent cylinders have respectively low compression pressure and their compression remains
low even after the addition of engine oil, the gaskets may be leaking, or valve in adjacent cylinders may
be damaged. Inspect and repair as required.
7. After inspection is complete, install removed parts. Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
8. Start engine, and confirm that engine runs smoothly.
9. Perform trouble diagnosis. If DTC appears, erase it. Refer to EC-71, "
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS" . Tool number : EG15050500 (J-45402)

VALVE SEAT CONTACT
After confirming that the dimensions of valve guides and valves
are within specifications, perform this procedure.
Apply prussian blue (or white lead) onto contacting surface of
valve seat to check the condition of the valve contact on the sur-
face.
Check if the contact area band is continuous all around the cir-
cumference.
If not, grind to adjust valve fitting and check again. If the contact-
ing surface still has NG conditions even after the re-check,
replace valve seat.
VALVE SEAT REPLACEMENT
When valve seat is removed, replace with oversized (0.5 mm, 0.020 in) valve seat.
1. Bore out old seat until it collapses. Boring should not continue beyond the bottom face of the seat recess
in cylinder head. Set the machine depth stop to ensure this.
2. Ream cylinder head recess diameter for service valve seat.
Be sure to ream in circles concentric to the valve guide center.
This will enable valve seat to fit correctly.
3. Heat cylinder head to 110 to 130°C (230 to 266°F) by soaking in
heated oil.
4. Provide valve seats cooled well with dry ice. Force fit valve seat into cylinder head.
CAUTION:
Avoid directly touching cold valve seats.
Cylinder head contains heat. When working, wear protective equipment to avoid getting burned.
5. Finish seat to the specified dimensions using suitable tool. Refer
to EM-103, "
Valve Seat" .
CAUTION:
When using valve seat cutter, firmly grip the cutter handle
with both hands. Then, press on the contacting surface all
around the circumference to cut in a single drive. Improper
pressure on the cutter or cutting many different times may
result in stage valve seat.
