15. CHECK CYLINDER COMPRESSION PRESSURE
(a) Reconnect the battery negative (±) cable.
(b) Insert a compression gauge into the spark plug hole.
(c) Fully open the throttle.
(d) Wh ile cra n kin g th e en g in e , me a su re th e co mp re ssio npressure.
HINT: Always use a fully charged battery to obtain engine
speed of 250 rpm or more.
(e) Repeat steps (b) through (d) for each cylinder. NOTICE: This measurement must be done in as short a
time as possible.
Compression pressure:
1,226 kPa (12.5 kgf/cm
2, 178 psi) or more
Minimum pressure: 981 kPa (10.0 kgf/cm
2, 142 psi)
Difference between each cylinder: 98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2, 14 psi) or less
(f) If the cylinder compression in one or more cylinders is low,pour a sm all amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the
spark plug hole and repeat steps (b) through (d) for cylinders
with low compression.
w If adding oil helps the compression, it is likely that the
piston rings and/or cylinder bore are worn or damage.
w If pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or seating
is improper, or there may be leakage past the gasket.
(g) Disconnect the battery negative (±) cable.
16. REINSTALL SPARK PLUGS

(j) Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of the mainjournal.
Main journal diameter: 66.988±67.000 mm
(2.6373±2.6378 in.)
(k) Subtract the main journal diameter measurement fromthe main bearing inside diameter measurement.
Standard oil clearance: 0.026±0.045 mm
(0.0010±0.0018 in.)
Maximum clearance: 0.055 mm (0.0022 in.)
If the oil clearance is greater than maximum, replace the
bearings. If necessary, replace the crankshaft.
HINT: If using a standard bearing, replace with one having
the same number. If the number of the bearing cannot be de-
termined, select the correct bearing by adding together the
numbers imprinted on the cylinder block and crankshaft, then
refer to the table below for the appropriate bearing number.
There are five sizes of standard bearings, marked º1º, º2º, º3º\
,
º4º and º5º accordingly.

COMPRESSION CHECK
HINT: If there is lack of power, excessive oil consumption or
poor fuel economy, measure the compression pressure.
1. WARM UP AND STOP ENGINE Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating tempera-
ture.
2. DISCONNECT DISTRIBUTOR CONNECTOR
3. DISCONNECT HIGH±TENSION CORDS FROM SPARK PLUGS (See steps 2 to 8 on pages EM±10 and 11)
4. DISCONNECT INJECTOR CONNECTORS
5. REMOVE SPARK PLUGS (See page IG±8)
6. CHECK CYLINDER COMPRESSION (a) Insert a compression tester into the spark plug hole.
(b) Fully open the throttle.
(c) While cranking the engine, measure the compressionpressure.
HINT: Always use a fully charged battery to obtain engine rev-
olution of 250 rpm or more.
(d) Repeat steps (a) through (c) for each cylinder.
NOTICE: This measurement must be done in as short
time as possible.
Compression:
1,226 kPa (12.5 kgf/cm
2, 178 psi) or more
Minimum pressure: 981 kPa (10.0 kgf/cm
2, 142 psi)
Difference between each cylinder:
98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2, 14 psi) or less
(e) If the cylinder compression in one or more cylinders islow, pour a small amount of engine oil into the cylinder
through the spark plug hole and repeat steps (a) through
(c) for the cylinder with low compression.
w If adding oil helps the compression, the piston rings
and/or cylinder bore are probably worn or
damaged.
w If pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or
seating improper, or there may be leakage past the
gasket.
