MANIFOLD VACUUM INSPECTION(1) Before inspection and adjustment, put the vehicle
in=following state.
l Engine coolant temperature:
85-95°C (185-205°F)
l Lights, electric, cooling fan, and accessories: OFF
lTransaxle: Neutral
(N or P for vehicles with an automa-
tic transaxle)
l Steering wheel: Neutral position
(2) Check that the idling revolution speed is normal.
(3) Remove the PCV hose from the PCV valve and attach a
vacuum gauge.
(4) Check that the negative pressure at the intake manifold
during idle revolution is normal.
Standard value: 510 mmHg (20
in.Hg)(5) If outside the standard value, isolate the cause by referring
to the following table and repair the fault.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES

CURB IDLE SPEED INSPECTION
CautionNlIFiiAE
The improper setting (throttle valve opening) will increase
exhaust gas temperature at deceleration, reducing catalystlife greatly and deteriorating exhaust gas cleaning per-
formance. It also has effect on fuel consumption and
engine braking.

PI-e-conditions for inspection
0Engine coolant temperature: 85-95°C (185-205°F)
0Lights, electric cooling fan and accessories: OFF
l Transaxle: Neutral
(P for vehicles with an automatic
transaxle)l Steering wheel: Neutral position (vehicles with a power
steering)l Check ignition timing and adjust if necessary. Refer to
GROUP 8.
NOTEWith vehicles for Canada, the headlights and taillights, etc.
remain on even when the lighting switch is turned OFF, but thiscauses no problems during inspection.
(1) Insert the paper clip to the connector.
(2) Connect the tachometer to the inserted clip.
(3)Run the engine for more than 5 seconds at an engine speedof 2,000 to 3,000 rpm.
(4) Run the engine at idle for 2 minutes.
(5) Read the idling rpm. If it is not within the specified speed,
check the idle speed control system.
Curb idle speed: 700
f 100 rpm
NOTEAdjustment of the idling speed is usually unnecessary,
because this system controls the idling speed.
