ENGINE TUNE-UP HLA TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Problem 1. Noise when engine is started immediately af- ter oil is changed 2. Noise when engine is started after setting approx. one day 3. Noise when engine is started after cranking for 3 seconds or more 4. Noise when engine is started after new HLA is installed 5. Noise continues more than 10 minutes 5. Noise occurs during idle after high speed run- ning Possible Cause Oil leakage in oil passage Oil leakage in HLA Faulty HLA Action Run engine 2000-3000 rpm. If noise stops after 2 second-10 minutes(') HLA is normal. If not, replace HLA. Time required for engine oil to circulate withir engine, includes tolerance for engine oi condition and ambient temperature. Insufficient oil pressure (Refer to page 8-53) Press down HLA by hand. If it does not move, HLA is normal. If it moves, replace HLA. Check oil pressure. If lower than specification, check for cause. Oil pressure; 295-392 kPa I3.0-4.0 kgf/cm2, 43-56 psil-3000 rpm Deteriorated oil Check oil quality. If deteriorated, replace with specified type and amount of oil. Incorrect oil amount IGNITION TIMING, IDLE SPEED Preparation 1. Check the condition of the engine (spark plugs, leaks in hoses, etc.). 2. Make sure all accessories are OFF. 3. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature. 4. Connect a timing light and a tachometer to the data link connector terminal IG-. When using an externally pow- ered timing light and/or tachometer, connect it to the power connector (Blue: 1 -pin). Measure valve clearance. If more than Omm {0 in}, replace HLA. Check oil level. Drain or add oil as necessary. Caution Grounding the power connector terminal (Blue: 1-pin) will burn out the 20A wiper fuse. 5. Make sure coolant fan does not operate. Gartner Banana

ON-VEHICLE MAINTENANCE B Steps After Installation 1. Connect the neaative batterv cable. Oil seal 1. Cut the oil seal lip with a razor knife. 2. Remove the oil seal with a screwdriver protected with a rag. Installation Note Oil seal 1. Apply a small amount of clean engine oil to the lip of a new oil seal. 2. Push the oil seal slightly in by hand. 3. Tap the oil seal in evenly with a pipe and a hammer until it is flush with the edge of the oil pump body. Note Oil seal outer diameter: 50.5mm (1.99 in} Oil seal inner diameter: 36.5mm (1.44 in} Timing belt pulley 1. Install the timing belt pulley. 2. Install the pulley woodruff key with the tapered side to- ward the oil pump body. 2. Start the enginsand check, and if necessary, adjust the ignition timing. 3. Connect the negative battery cable. 4. Start the engine and check follows: (1) Engine coolant leakage (2) Ignition timing (Refer to page B-9.) 5. Recheck the engine coolant levels. Gartner Banana

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Warning Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can very easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep sparks and flames away from fuel. Fuel in the fuel system is under high pressure when the engine is not running. 4 Warning Fuel line spills and leaks are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the following "Fuel Line Safety Procedures". 35UOFX-008 F-73 F-73 F-74 Fuel Line Safety Procedures A. Release the fuel pressure before disconnecting a fuel line. 1. Start the engine. u 2. Disconnect the fuel pump relay connector. 3. After the engine stalls, turn the ignition switch to OFF. 4. Reconnect the fuel pump relay connector. B. Avoid leakage. 1. When disconnecting a fuel line hose, wrap a rag around it to protect against fuel leakage. 2. Plug the hose after removal. C. Install hose clamps to secure the fuel pressure gauge connections. Self-Diagnosis Checker does not indicate Diagnostic Trouble Code No. but MIL comes on Self-Diagnosis Checker indicates Diagnostic Trouble Code No, of input device but MIL never comes ON Blower fan operates but no cool air is discharged 32 33 34 Pinching Hose When pinching an air hose or fuel hose with pliers, wrap the hose with a rag to prevent damage. MIL always ON MIL never ON NC does not work Checking ignition spark When checking ignition spark condition, hold the high- tension lead with insulated pliers. Note If a timing light is used to check for spark, some lights do not light at the number 2 and 4 cylinders even if the ignition system is normal. J Gartner Banana
