GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ENGINE CLEANLINESS AND CARE
An automobile engine is a combination of many
machined, honed,
polished and lapped surfaces with
tolerances that are measured in the thousandths of a
millimeter (ten thousandths of an inch). Accordingly,
when any
internal engine parts are serviced, care and
cleanliness are important. Throughout this section, it
should be understood that proper cleaning and
protection
of machined surfaces and friction areas is
part
of the repair procedure. This is considered
standard shop practice even
if not specifically stated.
• A liberal coating of engine oil should be applied to
all friction areas during assembly to protect and
lubricate the surfaces on initial operation.
• Whenever valve train components, pistons, piston
rings, connecting rods, rod bearings, and
crankshaft
journal bearings are removed for
service, they should be retained in order.
• At the time of installation, they should be installed
in the same locations and with the same mating
surfaces
as when removed.
• Battery cables should be disconnected before any
major
work is performed on the engine. Failure to
disconnect
cables may result in damage to wire
harness
or other electrical parts.
• The six cylinders of this engine are identified by
numbers; Right side
cylinders 1, 3 and 5, Left side
cylinders 2, 4 and 6, as counted from crankshaft
pulley side to flywheel side.
GENERAL INFORMATION ON ENGINE
SERVICE
The following information on engine service should be
noted
carefully, as it is important in preventing damage
and contributing
to reliable engine performance.
• When raising or supporting the engine for any
reason,
do not use a jack under the oil pan. Due to
the
small clearance between the oil pan and the oil
pump strainer, jacking against the oil pan may
cause damage to the
oil pick-up unit.
• The 12-volt electrical system is capable of
damaging circuits. When performing any work
where electrical terminals could possibly be
grounded, the ground cable of the battery should
be disconnected at the battery.
• Any time the intake air duct or air cleaner is
removed, the intake opening
should be covered.
This
will protect against accidental entrance of
foreign material into the cylinder which could
cause extensive damage when the engine is
started.

HARD STARTING
1. Starting motor does not turn over
Trouble shooting procedure
Turn on headlights and starter switch.
Condition Possible cause Correction
Headlights go out or dim Battery run down or under charged Recharge or replace battery
considerably
Terminals poorly connected Clean battery posts and
terminals and connect properly
Starting motor coil circuit shorted Overhaul or replace
Starting motor defective
Headlights stay
bright Starting motor circuit open Refer to Section 6D

2. Ignition trouble -Starting motor turns over but engine does not start
Spark Test
Disconnect a high tension cable from any spark plug. Connect the spark plug tester J-26792 (ST-1 25).
start the engine, and check if a spark is generated in the spark plug tester.
Before starting the engine, make sure
that the spark plug tester is properly grounded. To avoid
electrical shock, do not touch the high tension cable while the engine is running.
Condition Possible cause Correction
Spark jumps across gap
Spark plug defective Clean, adjust spark gap or

ENGINE COMPRESSION TEST
PROCEDURE
1. Start and run the engine until the engine reaches
normal operating temperature.
2. Turn the engine off.
3. Remove all the spark plugs.
4. Remove ignition coil fuse (15A) and disable the
ignition system.
5. Remove the fuel pump relay from the relay and
fuse box.
6. Engage the starter and check that the cranking
speed is approximately
300 rpm.
7. Install cylinder compression gauge into spark plug
hole.
8. With the throttle valve opened fully, keep the
starter engaged
until the compression gage
needle reaches the
maximum level. Note the
reading.
9. Repeat the test with each cylinder.
If
the compression pressure obtained falls below the
limit, engine overhaul is necessary.
