PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Drain Engine CoolantEBS00IKY
Drain engine coolant when engine is cooled.
Precautions for Disconnecting Fuel PipingEBS00IKZ

Before starting work, make sure no fire or spark producing items are in the work area.

Release fuel pressure before disconnecting and disassembly.

After disconnecting pipes, plug openings to stop fuel leakage.
Precautions for Removal and DisassemblyEBS00IL0

When instructed to use special service tools, use the specified tools. Always be careful to work safely,
avoid forceful or uninstructed operations.

Exercise maximum care to avoid damage to mating or sliding surfaces.

Cover openings of engine system with tape or the equivalent, if necessary, to seal out foreign materials.

Mark and arrange disassembly parts in an organized way for easy troubleshooting and assembly.

When loosening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, start with the one furthest outside, then the one diagonally
opposite, and so on. If the order of loosening is specified, do exactly as specified. Power tools may be
used where noted in the step.
Precautions for Inspection, Repair and ReplacementEBS00IL1
Before repairing or replacing, thoroughly inspect parts. Inspect new replacement parts in the same way, and
replace if necessary.
Precautions for Assembly and InstallationEBS00IL2

Use torque wrench to tighten bolts or nuts to specification.

When tightening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, equally tighten in several different steps starting with the
ones in center, then ones on inside and outside diagonally in this order. If the order of tightening is speci-
fied, do exactly as specified.

Replace with new gasket, packing, oil seal or O-ring.

Thoroughly wash, clean, and air-blow each part. Carefully check engine oil or engine coolant passages for
any restriction and blockage.

Avoid damaging sliding or mating surfaces. Completely remove foreign materials such as cloth lint or dust.
Before assembly, oil sliding surfaces well.

Release air within route when refilling after draining engine coolant.

Before starting engine, apply fuel pressure to fuel lines with turning ignition switch ON (with engine
stopped). Then make sure that there are no leaks at fuel line connections.

After repairing, start engine and increase engine speed to check engine coolant, fuel, oil, and exhaust
systems for leakage.
Parts Requiring Angular TighteningEBS00IL3

For final tightening of the following engine parts use Tool:
–Cylinder head bolts
–Main bearing cap bolts
–Connecting rod cap bolts
–Crankshaft pulley bolt (No angle wrench is required as the bolt flange is provided with notches for angle
tightening)

Do not use a torque value for final tightening.

The torque value for these parts are for a preliminary step.

Ensure thread and seat surfaces are clean and lightly coated with engine oil. Tool number : KV10112100 (BT-8653-A)

Lubricate O-ring with new engine oil.

Do not clean O-ring with solvent.

Make sure that O-ring and its mating part are free of foreign material.

When installing O-ring, be careful not to scratch it with tool or fingernails. Also be careful not to
twist or stretch O-ring. If O-ring was stretched while it was being attached, do not insert it
quickly into fuel tube.

Insert new O-ring straight into fuel tube. Do not twist it.
6. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
After installing the fuel tubes, make sure there are no fuel leaks at the connections using the following steps.
1. Apply fuel pressure to the fuel lines by turning the ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). Then check
for fuel leaks at the connections.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking on hidden points.
2. Start the engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at connections.
CAUTION:
Do not touch the engine immediately after stopping, as engine becomes extremely hot.

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)

Place chocks at front and back of rear wheels.

For engines not equipped with engine slingers, attach proper slingers and bolts described in
PARTS CATALOG.
CAUTION:

Always be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or uninstructed operations.

Do not start working until exhaust system and engine coolant are cooled sufficiently.

If items or work required are not covered by the engine section, refer to the applicable sections.

Always use the support point specified for lifting.

Use either 2-point lift type or separate type lift. If board-on type is used for unavoidable reasons,
support at the rear axle jacking point with transmission jack or similar tool before starting work, in
preparation for the backward shift of center of gravity.

For supporting points for lifting and jacking point at rear axle, refer to GI-40, "Garage Jack and
Safety Stand" .

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

Before starting engine, check the levels of engine coolant, engine oil and working fluid. If less than
required quantity, fill to the specified level.

Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.

Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel
leakage at connection points.

Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.

Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.

Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of engine coolant, engine oil, working fluid,
fuel and exhaust gas.

Bleed air from passages in pipes and tubes of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.

After cooling down engine, again check amounts of engine coolant, engine oil and working fluid. Refill to
specified level, if necessary.
