FLUID LEVEL CHECK
A fluid loss in any system (except windshield
washer) may indicate a problem. Repair the system
at once.
Engine
oil level -Check level and add if
necessary. The best time to check the engine oil
level is
when the oil is warm. After stopping the
engine with the vehicle on a level surface, wait a
few minutes for the oil to drain back to the oil pan.
Pull
out the oil level indicator (dipstick). Wipe it
clean and push the oil level indicator back down all
the
way. Pull out the oil level indicator, keeping the
tip down, and look at the oil level on it.
Add oil, if needed, to keep the oil level above
the
"ADD" mark and between the "ADD" and
"FULL" marks in the operating range area. Avoid
overfilling the engine since this may cause engine
damage. Push
the oil level indicator back down all
the
way after taking the reading.
If you check the oil level when the oil is cold, do
not run the engine first. The cold oil will not drain
back
to the pan fast enough to give a true oil level.
Engine coolant level and condition -Check
engine coolant level in the coolant reservoir and
add engine
coolant if necessary. Inspect the engine
coolant and replace it if dirty or rusty.
Windshield washer fluid level -Check washer
fluid level in reservoir and add if necessary.
Power steering system reservoir level-Check
and keep at
proper level.
Brake master cylinder reservoir level -Check
fluid. Keep fluid at proper level. A low fluid level
can indicate
worn disc brake pads which may need
to be serviced.
Hydraulic clutch system -Check fluid l~vel in
the reservoir.
Add fluid as required.
Battery fluid level -Check fluid level in the
battery.
FLUID LEAK CHECK
Check for fuel, water, oil or other fluid leaks by
looking at the surface beneath the vehicle after it
has been parked for a while. Water dripping from
the air conditioning system after use is normal. If
you notice gasoline fumes or fluid at any time,
locate the source and correct it at once.
ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER
REPLACEMENT
Always use API SE, SF, SG, SH or ILSAC GF-1
quality oils of the proper viscosity.
When choosing an oil, consider the range of
temperatures the car will be operated in before the
next oil change. Then, select the recommended oil
viscosity
from the chart (Fig. OB-1).
Always change the oil and the oil filter as soon as
possible after driving in a dust storm.
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION OB-5
ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM INSPECTION
Inspect coolant/anti-freeze. If coolant is dirty or
rusty, drain, flush and refill with new coolant. Keep
coolant at the proper mixture for proper freeze
protection,
corrosion inhibitor level and best engine
operating temperature.
Inspect hoses and replace if
cracked, swollen or deteriorated. Tighten hose
clamps if equipped with screw-type clamps. Clean
outside of radiator and air conditioning condenser.
Wash
filler cap and neck. To help ensure proper
operation, a pressure test of both the cooling
system and cap is also recommended.
EXHAUST SYSTEM INSPECTION
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler, heat
shields and hangers
for cracks, deterioration, or
damage.
Be alert to any changes in the sound of the exhaust
system
or any smell of fumes. These are signs the
system may be leaking or overheating. Repair the
system at once,
if these conditions exist. (See also
"Engine Exhaust Gas Safety" and "Three Way
Catalytic Converter" in Owner's manual.)
FUEL CAP, FUEL LINES, AND FUEL TANK
INSPECTION
Inspect the fuel tank, the fuel cap and the fuel lines
every
60,000 miles (96,000 km) for damage which
could cause leakage.
Inspect the fuel cap and the gasket for correct sealing
and physical damage. Replace any damaged parts.
DRIVE BELT INSPECTION
Check the belts driving the steering oil pump, the air
conditioning compressor, and the generator
for
cracks, fraying, wear, and correct tension every 30,000
miles (48,000 km). Adjust or replace as necessary.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT, BALANCE AND
TIRES OPERATION
Uneven or abnormal tire wear, or a pull right or left
on a straight and level road may show the need for
a wheel alignment. A vibration of the steering
wheel or seat at normal highway speeds means a
wheel balancing is needed. Check tire pressure
when the tires are "cold" (include the spare).
Maintain pressure as shown in the tire placard,
which is located on the driver's door lock pillar.
STEERING SYSTEM OPERATION
Be alert for any changes in steering action. An
inspection
or service is needed when the steering
wheel is harder
to turn or has too much free play, or
if there are unusual sounds when turning or parking.

CYLINDER BLOCK
The cylinder block is made of aluminum die-cast
casting
for 75° V-type six cylinders. It has a rear plate
integrated structure and employs a deep skirt. The
cylinder liner is cast and the liner inner diameter and
crankshaft
journal diameter are classified into grades.
The crankshaft is supported by four bearings
of which
width is different between No.2, No.3 and No.1, No.4;
the
width of No.3 bearing on the body side is different
in order
to support the thrust bearing. The bearing cap
is made
of nodular cast iron and each bearing cap uses
four bolts and two side bolts.
CYLINDER HEAD
The cylinder head, made of aluminum alloy casting
employs a pent-roof type combustion chamber with a
spark
plug in the center.
The intake and exhaust
valves are placed in V-type
design. The ports are cross-flow type.
VALVE TRAIN
SOHC: The camshafts on both banks are driven by a
timing
belt to operate the valves via rocker arm.
No
further valve clearance adjustment is
required, due
to the Hydraulic lash adjuster
attachedtotherockerarm.
DOHC: Intake camshaft on the both sides of banks are
driven through a
timing belt, while exhaust
camshaft are driven by the both sides
of intake
camshaft through chains.
The driven camshafts open and
close valves
through swing arms.
Valve clearance is automatically adjusted by
means
of HLA built in the cylinder head.
INTAKE MANIFOLD
SOHC: The intake manifold system is composed ofthe
aluminum cast common chamber and intake
manifold attached with six fuel injectors.
DOHC: The intake manifold system is composed of the
aluminum cast common chamber duct having
the induction
control valve, common chamber
and intake
manifold attached with six fuel
injectors.
EXHAUST MANIFOLD
The exhaust manifold is made of nodular cast iron.
PISTONS AND CONNECTING RODS
Aluminum pistons are used after selecting the grade
that meets the cylinder bore diameter. Each piston has
two compression rings and one oil ring. The piston pin
made
of chromium steel is offset 1 mm toward the
thrust side, and the thrust pressure
of piston to the
cylinder wall varies gradually as the piston travels. The
connecting rods are made
of forged steel. The
connecting rod bearings are graded
for correct size
selection.
ENGINE (V6 3.2L DOHC AND SOHC) 6A1-3
CRANKSHAFT AND BEARINGS
The crankshaft is made of Ductile cast-iron.Pins and
journals are graded for correct size selection for their
bearing.
OIL PUMP
The trochoid-type oil pump is driven by crankshaft.
Operation and service procedures are described in this
section.
ENGINE LUBRICATION
The oil discharged by a trochoid-type oil pump driven
by the crankshaft is fed through full-flow oil filter and
engine
coolant cooled oil cooler up to the oil gallery
provided under the crankshaft bearing cap. The oil is
then
led to the crankshaft journals and cylinder head.
The crank pins are
lubricated with oil from crankshaft
journals through oil holes. Also, an oil jet is fed to each
cylinder from crankshaft journals on the connecting
rod
for piston cleaning. The oil pan flange is sealed with
liquid packing only; do not deform or damage the
flange surface during removal or installation.

6C - 4 ENGINE FUEL
I1!]1NSPECTION
After installation, start engine and check for fuel leak­
age.
IN-TANK FUEL FILTER
The filter is located on the lower end of fuel pickup
tube in the fuel tank. It prevents dirt from entering the
fuel pipe and also stops water unless the filter is
completely submerged in the water. It is a self-cleaning
type, not requiring scheduled maintenance. Excess
water and sediment in the tank restricts fuel supply to
the engine, resulting in engine stop. In such a case, the
tank
must be cleaned throughly.
FUEL PUMP FLOW TEST
If reduction of fuel supply is suspected, perform
checking as follows.
Preparation:
• Make sure that there is fuel in the tank.
• With the engine running, check the fuel feed
pipe and hose
from fuel tank to injector for
evidence of leakage.
Retighten, if pipe or hose connection is loose.
Also,
check pipes and hoses for squashing or
clogging.
1. Receive the hose from fuel feed pipe with a clean
container, and check for fuel pump flow rate.
2. Connect the pump relay terminals with a jumper
wire as shown and start the fuel pump to measure
delivery. (Fig. 6C-4)
W CAUTION:
Never generate sparks when connecting a jumper
wire.

604-4 IGNITION SYSTEM
Fig. 604A-5
~ INSPECTION AND REPAIR
The spark plug affects entire engine performance and
therefore its inspection is very important.
• Check electrode and insulator for presence of
crack, and replace if any.
• Check electrode for wear, and replace if neces­
sary.
• Check gasket for damage, and replace if neces­
sary.
• Measure insulation resistance with an ohmmeter,
and replace if faulty.
• Adjust spark plug gap to 1.0(0.04) -1.1 (0.043)
mm(in).
• Check fuel and electrical systems if spark plug is
extremely dirty.
• Use spark plugs having low heat value (hot type
plug) if fuel and electrical systems are normal.
• Use spark plugs having high heat value (cold type
plug) if insulator and electrode are extremely
burned.
Sooty spark plugs
Much deposit of carbon or oil on the electrode and
insulator of spark plug reduces the engine perfor­
mance.
Possible causes:
• Too rich mixture
• Retarded ignition timing
• Presence of oil in combustion chamber
• Incorrectly adjusted spark plug gap
Burning electrodes
This fault is characterized by scorched or heavily
oxidized electrode or blistered insulator nose.
Possible causes:
• Too lean mixture
• Advanced ignition timing
• Improper heat value
Measuring Insulation Resistance
• Measure insulation resistance using a 500 volt
megaohm meter. (Fig. 604-6)
Fig.
604-6
• Replace spark plugs if measured value is out of
standard.
I @!.j Insulation resistance MQ 50 or more
Cleaning Spark Plugs
• Clean spark plugs with a spark plug cleaner.
• Raise the ground electrode to an angle of 45 to 60
degrees. If electrode is wet, dry it before cleaning.
• After spark plug is thoroughly cleaned, check
insulator for presence of crack.
• Clean threads and metal body with a wire brush.
• File the electrode tip if electrode is extremely
worn.
• Bend the ground electrode to adjust the spark
plug gap. (Fig. 604-7)
