REMARKS:
Major service interval at 12 months/20,000 km (12,000 Miles), Lubrication service based on distance only 10,000 km (6,000 Miles) not time
After 80,000 km (48,000 Miles) or 48 months, continue to follow the described maintenance items and intervals periodically.
As for * marked items in this maintenance chart, please pay attention to the following points.
*1 Replacement of the timing belt is required at every 100,000 km (60,000 Miles). Failure to repace the timing belt may result in damage to the engine.
*2 If the vehicle is operatie under the following conditions, it is suggested that the engine oil and oil filter be changed more often than at usual recommended intervals.
a) Driving in dusty conditions.
b) Extended periods of idling or low speed operation.
c) Driving for a prolonged period in cold temperatures or driving only short distances regulary.
*3. If the vehicle is operated in very dusty or sandy areas, inspect and, if necessary, replace more often than at usual recommended intervals.
*4. This is a full function check of all electrical systems, i.e., all lights, washers (including condition of blades) electrical windows, sunroof, horn, etc....
*5. Replace every two years.
If there has been continuous hard driving, mountain driving, or if the brakes are used extensively or the vehicle is operated in extremely humid climates, the
brake fluid should be changed annually.

76G01A-102
76G01A-103
76G01A-104
TUNE-UP PROCEDURE
Tune the engine according to the procedures
described below.
Battery
1. Check for corrosion on the terminals, or loose ca-
ble connections.
If necessary, clean the clamps and tighten firmly.
2. Check that the electrolyte level is between the UP-
PER and LOWER marks.
Add distilled water if necessary.
3. Check the specific gravity by using a hydrometer.
If the specific gravity reading is 1.200 or less,
recharge the battery. (Refer to Section 5.)
Air Cleaner Element
Visually check the air cleaner element for excessive
dirt, damage, or oil. Replace if necessary.
Caution
Do not clean the air cleaner element with com-
pressed air, replace if necessary.
Engine Oil
Check the engine oil level and condition with the oil
level gauge.
Add oil, or change it, if necessary.

TUNE-UP PROCEDURE 1A
High-Tension Lead
Check the following points. Clean or replace if
necessary.
1. Damaged lead
2. Carbon deposits
86U01X-014
76G01A-012
49 0187 280
76G01A-013
Carburetor Float Level (Carburetor)
1. Run the engine at idle.
2. Check that the fuel level is at the center of the float
level indicator window.
If necessary, adjust the fuel float level. (Refer to Sec-
tion 4A.)
Hydraulic Lash Adjuster (12 valve)
Note
Tappet noise may occur if the engine is not
operated for an extended period of time. The
noise should stop after the engine has
reached normal operating temperature.
1. Check for tappet noise. If noise exsits, check the
following points.
(1) Engine oil condition and level
(2) Engine oil pressure (Refer to Section 2A)
2. If the noise does not stop, check for movement of
each HLA by pushing down each rocker arm by
hand while at TDC of compression stroke.
3. If the rocker arm moves down, replace the HLA.
(Refer to page 1A—75.)

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION 1 A
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
If the engine exhibits low power, poor fuel economy,
or poor idle, check the following points.
1. Ignition system (Refer to Section 5)
2. Compression
3. Fuel system (Refer to Section 4)
COMPRESSION
1. Check that the battery is fully charged. Recharge
if necessary.
76G01A-107
2. Warm up the engine to the normal operating tem-
perature.
3. Turn it off for about 10 minutes to allow the exhaust
manifold to cool.
4. Remove all spark plugs.
5. Disconnect the primary wire connector from the
ignition coil.

ry.
2. Check that the mating mark of the camshaft pul-
ley is aligned with the timing mark. If it is not
aligned, turn the camshaft to align.
Note
For FE engine, align "2" mark.
For F8, F6 engine, align "3" mark.
3. Install the timing belt tensioner and spring. Tem-
porarily secure it with the spring fully extended.
Caution
Do not damage the pulleys when securing the
tensioner pulley.
4. Install the timing belt. (Keep the tension side of belt
as tight as possible).
Caution
a) If the timing belt is being reused, it must be
reinstalled to rotate in the original direction.
b) Check that there is no oil, grease, or dirt on
the timing belt.
5. Loosen the tensioner lock bolt.
6. Turn the crankshaft twice in the direction of rota-
tion, and align the mating marks.
7. Check that the timing marks are correctly aligned.
If not aligned, remove the timing belt tensioner and
timing belt, and repeat steps 1—6.
