DEFINITION OF TERMS
SERVICING EXPLANATIONSSTANDARD VALUE
bThis manual provides explanations, etc. concerning
procedures for the inspection, maintenance, repair
and servicing of the subject model. Unless other-
wise specified, each service procedure covers all
models. Procedures covering specific models are
identified by the model codes, or similar designation
(engine type, transaxle type, etc.). A description of
these designations is covered in this unit under
“VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION”.
SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES“Service Adjustment Procedures” are procedures
for performing inspections and adjustments of
particularly important locations with regard to the
construction and for maintenance and servicing, but
other inspections (for looseness, play, cracking,
damage, etc.) must also be performed.
SERVICE PROCEDURESThe service steps are arranged in numerical order
and attentions to be paid in performing vehicle
service are described in detail in SERVICE POINTS.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Troubleshootings are classified into master trouble-
shooting and group troubleshooting and located as
follows:
The master troubleshooting is prepared when the
trouble symptom relates to two or more groups and
given in MASTER TROUBLESHOOTING.
The group troubleshooting guide is prepared for
causes of problems related to that individual groupIndicates the value used as the standard for judging
the quality of a part or assembly on inspection or the
value to which the part or assembly is corrected and
adjusted. It is given by tolerance.
LIMITShows the standard for judging the quality of a part
or assembly on inspection and means the maximum
or minimum value within which the part or assembly
must be kept functionally or in strength. It is a value
established outside the range of standard value.
REFERENCE VALUEIndicates the adjustment value prior to starting the
work (presented in order to facilitate assembly and
adjustment procedures, and so they can be com-
pleted in a shorter time).
CAUTIONIndicates the presentation of information particularly
vital to the worker during the performance of
maintenance’ and servicing procedures in order to
avoid the possibility of injury to the worker; or
damage to component
.parts, or a reduction of
component or vehicle function or performance, etc.
INDICATION OF TIGHTENING TORQUEThe tightening torque shown in this manual is a
basic value with a tolerance of
+lO% except the
following cases when the upper and lower limits of
tightening torque are given.
(1) The tolerance for the basic value is within
+ I no/-
only; a troubleshooting guide is prepared for eachI iv,“.appropriate group.(2) Special bolts or the like are in use.
(3) Special tighteningmethods are used.

1.Press in V-belt at the illustrated position with about 100 N
(22 Ibs.) and measure deflection.

I
’ 7 - 8.5 mm (.28 - .33 in.)
2.If the deflection is out of the standard values, adjust the belt
tension using the following procedure.
(1) Loosen the tension pulley’s securing bolts A and
B.(2) Mount the extension bar on the tension pulley.
(3) While increasing the tension of the V-belt with the
extension bar, retighten the tension pulley’s securing
bolts A and B in the order mentioned.
FLUID LEVEL CHECKM37FlAJ
1.Park the vehicle on a flat, level surface, start the engine, and
then turn the steering wheel several times to raise the
temperature of the fluid to approximately 50
- 60°C (122 -
140°F).
2.With the engine running, turn the wheel all the way to the
left and right several times.
3.Check the fluid in the oil reservoir for foaming or milkiness.
Check the difference of the fluid level when the engine is
stopped, and while it is running. If the fluid level changes
considerably, air bleeding should be done.
FLUID REPLACEMENTM37FJAL1. Raise the front wheels on a jack, and then support them
with rigid racks.
2. Disconnect the return hose connection.
3. Connect a vinyl hose to the return hose, and drain the oil
into a container.
4. Disconnect the high-tension cable, and then while operat-
ing the starting motor intermittently, turn the steering
wheel all the way to the left and right several times to drain
all of the fluid.
Caution
Be careful not to position the high-tension cable nearthe carburetor or the delivery pipe.
5.Connect the return hoses securely, and then secure it with
the clip.
6.Fill the oil reservoir with the specified fluid up to the lower
position of the filter, and then bleed the air.
