MllUCHAFLYWHEEL (engine with a manual transaxle)
(I) Make a visual inspection of the clutch disc. If stepped wear, :streaking, or seizure are apparent, replace it.\J(2) If flywheel run out exceeds the limit, replace it.
Limit: 0.13 mm
t.0051 in.)
RING GEAR (engine with a manual transaxle)
When there is wear, cracks, or other damage to the ring gear
teeth, replace the ring gear by the following procedure. Check
the starter motor pinion.
Ring gear replacement procedure:
(1) Tap around the ring gear to loosen and remove it from the
flywheel..
CautionThe ring gear cannot be removed while it is hot.
(2) Heat the ring gear to 300°C (572°F) and install it into the
flywheel.
CRANKSHAFTInspect out-of-roundness and taper of crankshaft journal and
pin.
Limit:Out-of-roundness of journal and pin:
LJ
0.003 mm (.00012 in.)Taper of journal and pin: 0.005 mm
(.00020 in.)
OIL CLEARANCE MEASUREMENT
(I) To check the oil clearance, measure the outside diameter of
the crankshaft journal and the crank pin and the inside
diameter of the bearing. The clearance can be obtained by
calculating the difference between the measured outside
and inside diameters.
Standard value: 0.019
- 0.044 mm i.0007 - .0017 in.)
Limit: 0.1 mm
(.004 in.)
(2) If the oil clearance exceeds the limit, replace the bearing,
and crankshaft if necessary.

PLASTIGAGE METHODMllUlAA
Plastigage may be used to measure the clearance.
(1) Remove oil and grease and any other dirt from bearings and
journals.(2) Cut plastigage to the same length as the width of the
bearing and place it in parallel with the journal, off oil holes.
(3) Install the crankshaft, bearings and caps and tighten them
to the specified torques. During this operation, do NOT turn
the crankshaft. Remove the caps. Measure the width-of the
plastigage at the widest part by using a scale printed on the
plastigage sleeve.
If the clearance exceeds the repair limit, the bearing should
be replaced.
Should the standard clearance not be obtained even after
bearing replacement, replace the crankshaft.

Symptom
The starter is used to crank the engine, but there is no combustion within the
cylinders, and the engine won’t start.
There is combustion within the cylinders, but then the engine soon stalls.(Starting takes a long
time.)Engine won’t start quickly.
Idling instability
(Rough idling)Engine speed doesn’t remain constant; changes during idling.Usually, a judgement can be based upon the movement of the tachometer
>.rpointer, and the vibration transmitted to the steering wheel, shift lever, body, etc.
EThis is called rough idling.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
MlBFHSU
BASIC IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT
NOTE(1) The basic idle speed has been factory-adjusted with the
speed adjusting screw (SAS) and does not normally require
adjustment.(2) If the adjustment is required, first check that the ignition
plug, injector,
ISC servo, and compression pressure are
normal.
(1) Before starting the inspection and adjustment procedures,set the vehicle in the following conditions:
l
Engine coolant temperature: 80 to 95°C (176 to 205°F)l Lights, electric cooling fan, accessories: OFF
lTransaxle: Neutral (P range on vehicles with automatic
transaxle)l Steering wheel: Straightforward position
(2) When using the multi-use tester, connect it to the diagnosis
connector.
NOTEThe connection of the multi-use tester grounds the
self-
diagnosis/data transmission selector terminal.
(3) When not using the multi-use tester, proceed as follows:
@) Insert a paper clip into the l-pin blue connector as
shown in the illustration. FUEL SYSTEM
- Service Adjustment Procedurks13-31
i
@ Connect a primary-voltage-detecting tachometer to the
paper clip.
NOTEThe
tacho/neter should read l/3 of the actual engine
speed. This means that the actual engine speed is thetachometer reading multiplied by 3.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTSHint 1: If the engine is hard to start when hot, check fuel pressure and check the injector for leaks.
Hint 2:If the injector does not when the engine that is hard to start is cranked, the following as well as the
Iinjector itself may be responsible.
(1) Faulty power supply circuit to the engine control unit, faulty ground circuit
\-J
-(2) Faulty control relay
Hint 3:(3) Faulty crank angle sensor, top dead center sensor
If there is any cylinder whose idle state remains unchanged when the fuel injection of injectors is cut
one after another during idling, make following checks about such cylinder.
(1) Injector and harness check
(2) Ignition plug and high tension cable check
(3) Compression pressure check
Hint 4: If the injector harness and individual part checks have resulted normal but the injector drive time is
out of specification, the following troubles are suspected.
(1)Poor combustion in the cylinder (faulty ignition plug, ignition coil, compression pressure, etc.)
(2) Loose EGR valve seating
(3) High engine resistance
