7. Install the SSTs into the glow plug hole.
8. Crank the engine and note the maximum gauge
reading.
9. Inspect each cylinder as above.
•If the compression in one or more cylinders is
low, pour a small amount of clean engine oil
into the cylinder and reinspect the
compression.
—If the compression increases, the piston,
the piston rings, or cylinder wall may be
worn and overhaul is required.
—If the compression stays low, a valve may
be stuck or improperly seated and
overhaul is required.
—If the compression in adjacent cylinders stays low, the cylinder head gasket may be damaged or the
cylinder head may be distorted and overhaul is required.

10. Remove the SSTs.
11. Install the glow plug. (See F2–42 GLOW PLUG REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
12. Instal the engine cover. (See B2–9 TIMING BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
13. Reconnect the fuel injector connector.
14. Erase DTC from PCM memory using the SST. (WDS or equivalent).

Warning
•Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can very easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep
sparks and flames away from fuel.
•Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injures or death and
damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the “Fuel Line
Safety Procedure”. (See F2–45 Fuel Line Safety Procedures.)
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the front tire (RH).
3. Remove the splash shield (RH).
4. Remove the washer tank.
5. Remove the drive belt. (See B2–4 DRIVE BELT REPLACEMENT.)
6. Remove the fuel filter with the fuel hose still connected and position the fuel filter so that it is out of the way.
( L.H.D.) (See F2–50 FUEL FILTER COMPONENT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
7. Remove in the order shown in the table.
8. Install in the reverse order of removal.
9. Start the engine and inspect the pulleys and the drive belt for runout and contact.

1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.
3. Stop the engine and wait for 5 min.
4. Verify that the oil level is between the L and F marks on the dipstick and check the engine oil condition.
•If the oil level is below the L mark, add engine oil. (See D–8 ENGINE OIL REPLACEMENT.)
End Of SieENGINE OIL REPLACEMENTA6E331214001202MZR-CD (RF Turbo)
Warning
•Hot engines and engine oil can cause severe burns. Turn off the engine and wait until it and the
engine oil have cooled.
•A vehicle that is lifted but not securely supported on safety stands is dangerous. It can slip or fall,
causing death or serious injury. Never work around or under a lifted vehicle if it is not securely
supported on safety stands.
•Continuous exposure to USED engine oil has caused skin cancer in laboratory mice. Protect your
skin by washing with soap and water immediately after working with engine oil.
Caution
•In case you spill engine oil on the front pipe, wipe it off completely. If you fail to wipe the spilled
oil, it will produce fumes because of the heat.
1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Remove the the oil filler cap.
3. Remove the under cover.
4. Remove the oil pan drain plug.
5. Drain the engine oil into a container.
6. Install the oil pan drain plug with a new the washer.
Tightening torque

Note
•The amount of residual oil in the engine can vary with the replacement method, oil temperature, etc. Verify
the oil level after engine oil replacement.
7. Refill the engine oil with the specified type and amount, then install the oil filler cap.
