INSPECTION
1.INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT (See REPLACEMENT
)
2.INSPECT ENGINE OIL (See ON
-VEHICLE INSPECTION )
3.INSPECT BATTERY (See REPLACEMENT
)
4.INSPECT AIR CLEANER FILTER ELEMENT SUB-ASSY
5.INSPECT SPARK PLUG (See REPLACEMENT
)
6.INSPECT FAN AND GENERATOR V BELT
HINT:
Use of the automatic tensioner has made tension and flexibility measurements unnecessary.
a. Check that the indicator mark on the automatic tensioner is within range A as shown in the
illustration.
b. When the mark is out of the standard range, replace the V belt with a new one.

f. Remove the spark plugs.
g. Disconnect the 8 injector connectors.
h. Check the cylinder compression pressure.
SST 09992-00500
1. Insert a compression gauge into the spark plug hole.
2. Fully open the throttle.
3. While cranking the engine, measure the compression pressure.
Compression pressure:
1.2 MPa (12.5 kgf/cm
2 , 178 psi)
Minimum pressure: 981 kPa (10.0 kgf/cm
2 , 142 psi)
Difference between each cylinder:
98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2 , 14 psi)
4. If the cylinder compression is low, pour a small amount of engine oil into the cylinder
throu
gh the spark plug hole and inspect again.

HINT:
If adding oil increases the compression, the piston rings and/or cylinder bore may be worn or
damaged.
If pressure stays low, a valve may be stuck or seated improperly, or there may be leakage in
the gasket.
i. Connect the 8 injector connectors.
j. Install the spark plugs.
k. Install the 8 ignition coils.
l. Install the oil level gauge guide.
m. Connect the throttle control motor connector.
n. Install the air cleaner inlet and intake air pipe.
o. Install the V-bank cover.
10.INSPECT CO/HC
a. Start the engine.
b. Rev the engine at 2,500 rpm for approximately 180 seconds.
