ENGINE TUNE-UP ENGINE TUNE-UP PREPARATION SST I 49 9200 020 Tension gauge, V-ribbed belt For inspection of ignition timing and idle speed For inspection of drive belt tension ENGINE OIL 49 801 9 9AO System selector Warning Continuous exposure with USED engine oil has caused skin cancer in laboratory mice. Protect your skin by washing with soap and water im- mediately after this work. Inspection 1. Be sure the vehicle is on level ground. 2. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature and stop it. 3. Wait for five minutes. 4. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level and condi- tion. 5. Add or replace oil if necessary. Note The distance between the L and F marks on the dip- stick represents 0.8 L (0.85 US qt, 0.70 Imp qt}. ENGINE COOLANT Inspection Coolant level (engine cold) Warning Removing the radiator cap or the coolant filler cap while the engine is running, or when the engine and radiator are hot is dangerous. Scalding cool- ant and steam can shoot out and cause serious in- jury. It can also damage the engine and cooling system. Turn off the engine and wait until it is cool. Even then, be very careful when removing the cap. Wrap a thick cloth around it and slowly turn it counterclockwise to the first stop. Step back while the pressure escapes. When you're sure all the pressure is gone, press down on the cap-still using a cloth - turn it, and remove it. 1. Verify that the coolant level is near the radiator filler neck. 2. Verify that the coolant level in the coolant reservoir is be- tween the FULL and LOW marks. 3. Add coolant if necessary. Gartner Banana

ENGINE TUNE-UP V-RIBBED BELT PIS or PIS + A/C EQUIPPED AIC EQUIPPED IDLER Coolant quality 1. Verify that there is no buildup of rust or scale around the radiator cap or radiator filler neck. 2. Verify that the coolant is free of oil. d 3. Replace the coolant if necessary. DRIVE BELT Inspection 1. Remove the air intake pipe. 2. Check the drive belts for wear, cracks, and fraying. Re- place if necessary. 3. Verify that the drive belts are correctly mounted on the pulleys. 4. Check the drive belt deflection when the engine is cold, or at least 30 minutes after the engine has stopped. Ap- ply moderate pressure 98 N (10 kgf, 22 Ibf) midway be- tween the specified pulleys.

If the deflection is not within specification, adjust it. 6. Install the air intake pipe. Drive belt tension check Belt tension can be checked in place of belt deflection. Check the drive belt tension when the engine is cold, or at least 30 minutes after the engine has stopped. Using the SST, check the belt tension between any two pulleys. Gartner Banana
