WHEEL ALIGNMENT WHEEL ALIGNMENT FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT Specifications (Unladed*l) PRE-INSPECTION 1. Check the tire inflations, and adjust to the recommended d pressure if necessary. 2. lnspect the front wheel bearing play and correct if neces- sary. 3. lnspect the wheel and tire runouts. 4. Inspect the ball joints and steering linkage for excessive looseness. 5. The vehicle must be on level ground and carry no lug- gage or passengers. 6. Measure the height from the center of the wheel to the fender brim. The difference between left and right mea- surement must not exceed 10mm (0.39 in), and the rear measurement must be larger then the front measure- ment by 10-30mm (0.4--1.1 in). Caution The proper caster and camber angle vary depend- ing on the vehicle height. Refer to the following and to page R-9 for the specifications. Inspection and adjustment of wheel alignment must be done with the vehicle unladed*'. . .

Odometer DESCRIPTION Speedometer Two scales are shown on the speedometer face. The main scale for U.S. specification vehicles is MPH (0-140 MPH); the main scale for Canada specification vehicles is kmlh (0-220 kmlh). The odometer indication is the same as the main scale. Tachometer The tachometer has a RED STRIPED ZONE (6,500-7,000 rpm) that indicates momentary allowable engine speed. The engine should not be operated in the RED ZONE (7,000-8,000 rpm). Fuel Gauge 2 The fuel gauge continues to indicate the amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank after the ignition switch has been turned OFF. Gartner Banana
