The lubrication method is a fully force-fed, full-flow
filtration type. The engine oil pump is a trochoid type
which is driven by the crankshaft <4G1>.The engine
oil pump is a gear type which is driven by the
crankshaft via the balancer timing belt <4G6>.

Health Warning
Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will
result in the removal of natural fats from the skin,
leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In
addition, used engine oil contains potentially harmful
contaminants which may cause skin cancer.
Adequate means of skin protection and washing
facilities must be provided.
Recommended Precautions
The most effective precaution is to adapt working
practices which prevent, as far as practicable, the
risk of skin contact with mineral oils, for example by
using enclosed systems for handling used engine oil
and by degreasing components, where practicable,
before handling them. Other precautions:
•Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils,
particularly used engine oils.
•Wear protective clothing, including impervious
gloves where practicable.•Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly
underpants, with oil.
•Do not put oily rags in pockets, the use of overalls
without pockets will avoid this.
•Do not wear heavily soiled clothing and
oil-impregnated foot-wear. Overalls must be
cleaned regularly and kept separate from
personal clothing.
•Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye
protection should be worn, for example, chemical
goggles or face shields; in addition an eye wash
facility should be provided.
•Obtain first aid treatment immediately for open
cuts and wounds.
•Wash regularly with soap and water to ensure all
oil is removed, especially before meals (skin
cleansers and nail brushes will help). After
cleaning, the application of preparations
containing lanolin to replace the natural skin oils
is advised.
•Do not use petrol, kerosine, diesel fuel, gas oil,
thinners or solvents for cleaning skin.
•Use barrier creams, applying them before each
work period, to help the removal of oil from the
skin after work.
•If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice
without delay.

REFRIGERANT LEAK REPAIR
PROCEDURE
M1552001500277
LOST CHARGE
If the system has lost all charge due to a leak:
1. Evacuate the system (Refer to P.55-72).
2. Charge the system with approximately 480 − 520
g of refrigerant.
3. Check for leaks.
4. Discharge the system.
5. Repair leaks.
CAUTION
Replacement filter-drier units must be sealed
while in storage. The drier used in these units will
saturate water quickly upon exposure to the
atmosphere. When installing a drier, have all
tools and supplies ready for quick assembly to
avoid keeping the system open any longer than
necessary.
6. Replace receiver drier.
7. Evacuate and charge system.
LOW CHARGE
If the system has not lost all of its refrigerant charge;
locate and repair all leaks. If it is necessary to
increase the system pressure to find the leak
(because of an especially low charge) add
refrigerant. If it is possible to repair the leak without
discharging the refrigerant system, use the
procedure for correcting low refrigerant level.
HANDLING TUBING AND FITTINGS
Kinks in the refrigerant tubing or sharp bends in the
refrigerant hose lines will greatly reduce the capacity
of the entire system. High pressures are produced in
the system when it is operating. Extreme care must
be exercised to make sure that all connections are
pressure tight. Dirt and moisture can enter the
system when it is opened for repair or replacement of
lines or components. The following precautions must
be observed. The system must be completely
discharged before opening any fitting of connection
in the refrigeration system. Open fittings with caution
even after the system has been discharged. If any
pressure is noticed as a fitting is loosened, allow
trapped pressure to bleed off very slowly.
Never attempt to rebend formed lines to fit. Use the
correct line for the installation you are servicing. A
good rule for the flexible hose lines is keep the radius
of all bends at least 10 times the diameter of the
hose.Sharper bends will reduce the flow of refrigerant. The
flexible hose lines should be routed so that they are
at least 80 mm from the exhaust manifold. It is good
practice to inspect all flexible hose lines at least once
a year to make sure they are in good condition and
properly routed.
On standard plumbing fittings with O-rings, these
O-rings are not reusable.
COMPRESSOR NOISE CHECKM1552008700272
You must first know the conditions when the noise
occurs. These conditions are: weather, vehicle
speed, in gear or neutral, engine temperature or any
other special conditions.
Noises that develop during A/C operation can often
be misleading. For example: what sounds like a
failed front bearing or connecting rod, may be
caused by loose bolts, nuts, mounting brackets, or a
loose clutch assembly. Verify accessory drive belt
tension (power steering or alternator).
Improper accessory drive belt tension can cause a
misleading noise when the compressor is engaged
and little or no noise when the compressor is
disengaged.
Drive belts are speed-sensitive. That is, at different
engine speeds, and depending upon belt tension,
belts can develop unusual noises that are often
mistaken for mechanical problems within the
compressor.
ADJUSTMENT
1. Select a quiet area for testing. Duplicate
conditions as much as possible. Switch the
compressor on and off several times to clearly
identify compressor noise. To duplicate high
ambient conditions (high head pressure), restrict
air flow through the condenser. Install a manifold
gauge set to make sure discharge pressure
doesn't exceed 2,070 kPa.
2. Tighten all compressor mounting bolts, clutch
mounting bolt, and compressor drive belt. Check
to assure clutch coil is tight (no rotation or
wobble).
3. Check refrigerant hoses for rubbing or
interference that can cause unusual noises.
4. Check refrigerant charge (Refer to P.55-69).
5. Recheck compressor noise as in Step 1.
6. If noise still exists, loosen compressor mounting
bolts and retighten. Repeat Step 1.
7. If noise continues, replace compressor and repeat
Step 1.
