INJECTORS
NWXAHCHECKING OPERATION SOUND
Using a sound-scope, check the operation sound (“chi-chi-chi”)of the injectors during idling or during cranking.
Check to be sure that the operation sound increases when the
engine speed is increased.
Caution
Note that the sounds of other injectors may be heard even
though the injector being checked is not operating, so caremust be taken when checking.
NOTEIf the operation sounds cannot be heard, check the injector
activation circuit.
If this circuit is normal, there is probably a malfunction of the
injector or of the engine control unit.
MEASURING OF RESISTANCE BETWEEN TERMINALS
(1) Disconnect the connector for the injectors.
(2) Measure the resistance between terminals.
Standard value:
13
-16 S2 [at 20°C (68”F)]2
- 3 52 [at 20% (68”F)]
(3) Connect the connector for the injectors.
IDLE SPEED CONTROL SERVO
N14QUADCHECKING OPERATING SOUND
(1) Check that when the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position (the engine not started), the operating sound of thestepper motor can be heard over the idle speed control
servo.
(2) If no operating sound can be heard, check the stepper
motor drive circuit.
(If the circuit is good, a defective stepper motor or engine
control unit is suspected.)

V-BELT TENSION CHECKNlSFliAl
1.Check to be sure that the belt is not damaged and that the
V-belt is correctly attached to the groove of the pulley.
NOTE, If there is abnormal noise or belt slippage, check the belt
tension and check for unusual wear or abrasion, or damage,
of the
pullev contact surface, and for scars or scratches onthe
pulley.2.
Press in V-belt at the illustrated position with about 100 N
(22 Ibs.) and measure deflection.
Standard value: 6-9 mm
1.26.35 in.)
3. If there is a deviation from the standard value range, make
an adjustment of the belt tension by following the procedures
described below.
(1) Loosen bolts A, B and C (for holding the oil pump).
(2) Place a bar or similar object against the body of the oil
pump, and, while manually providing the suitable
amount of tension, adjust the amount of
flexion of the
belt.
(3) Tighten bolts A, B and C (for holding the oil pump).
(4) Check the amount of flexion of the belt; readjust if
necessary.
CautionThe check should be made after turning the engine
one time or more in the regular direction of rotation (tothe
dght).
FLUID LEVEL CHECKNlSFIAI
1.Park the vehicle on a flat, level surface, startthe engine, andthen 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 REPLACEMENTNlSFJAJ
1.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.

OIL PUMP PRESSURE TESTNl9FlAF
CHECKING THE OIL PUMP RELIEF PRESSURE1. Disconnect the pressure hose from the oil pump, and then
connect the special tools.
2.Bleed the air, and then turn the steering wheel several timeswhile the vehicle is not moving so that the temperature of
the fluid rises to approximately
50-60°C (122-14OOF).3. Start the engine and idle it at 1,000
f 100 rpm.
4. Fully close the shut-off valve of the pressure gauge and
measure the oil pump relief pressure to confirm that it is
within the standard value range.
Standard value: 7.5-8.2
MPa (1,067-1,166 psi)
Caution
Pressure gauge shut off valve must not remain closed formore than 10 seconds.
5.If it is not within the standard value, overhaul the oil pump.
6.Remove the special tools, and then tighten the pressure hoseto the specified torque.
7. Bleed the system.
CHECKING THE PRESSURE UNDER NO-LOAD CONDITIONS1. Disconnect the pressure hose from the oil pump, and then
connect the special tool.
2.Bleed the air, and then turn the steering wheel several timeswhile the vehicle is not moving so that the temperature of
the fluid rises to approximately
50-60°C (122-14OOF).3. Start the engine and idle it at 1,000
-t 100 rpm.
4.
Check whether or not the hydraulic pressure is the standard
value when no-load conditions are created by fully openingthe shut-off valve of the pressure gauge.
Standard value:
0.8-I .O MPa (114-142 psi)
Limit: 1.5
MPa (213 psi)
5. If it is not within the standard value, the probable cause is
a malfunction of the oil line or steering gear box, so check
these parts and repair as necessary.
6.Remove the special tools, and then tighten the pressure hoseto the specified torque.
7. Bleed the system.

hydraulic pressure that activates the switch is the standard
value.
Standard value: 1.5-2.0 MPa (213-284 psi)

TRANSAXLE FLUID LEVEL INSPECTION1. Drive until the fluid temperature reaches the usual tem-
perature
[70-80°C (160- 18O”F)I.2. Place vehicle on level floor.
3. Move selector lever sequentially to every position to fill
torque converter and hydraulic circuit with fluid, then place
lever in “N” Neutral position.
4. Before removing dipstick, wipe all dirt from area around
dipstick. Then take out the dipstick and check the conditionof the fluid.
The transaxle should be overhauled under the following
conditions.l If there is a “burning” odor.
l If the fluid color has become noticeably blacker.
lIf there is a noticeably great amount of metal particles inthe fluid.
5.Check to see if fluid level is in “HOT” range on dipstick. If
fluid level is low, add automatic transaxle fluid until level
reaches “HOT” range.
Transaxle fluid: MOPAR ATF PLUS (Automatic trans-
mission fluid type 7176) or Dia ATF SPor equivalent
Low fluid level can cause a variety of conditions
becaljse it
allows pump to take in air along with fluid. Air trapped in
hydraulic circuit forms bubbles which make fluid spongy.
Therefore, pressures will be erratic, causing delayed shift,
slippy clutch and brakes, etc.
Improper filling can also raise fluid level too high. When
transaxle has too much fluid, gears churn up foam and
cause the same conditions which occur with low fluid level,
resulting in accelerated deterioration of automatic transaxle
fluid.In either case, air bubbles can cause overheating, fluid
oxidation, which can interfere with normal valve, clutch,
and servo operation.Foaming can also result in fluid
escaping from transaxle vent where it may be mistaken for
a leak.6. Be sure to examine fluid on dipstick closely.
