IGNITION SYSTEM-Service Adjustment Procedures 8-113
SPARK TEST - ENGINE CANNOT BE CRANKED
If spark test is performed by cranking while the catalyst is hot,
unburned gas will be supplied to the catalyst, and this is not de-
sirable to the catalyst.
For this reason, use the following methods which allow spark test
to be performed without cranking.
1. Remove the distributor cap.
2. Check signal rotor position in relation to the pick-up. If it is not
the position shown in the illustration, turn the crankshaft man-
ually so that the projection of the signal rotor is moved away
from the center part of the pick-up. In order words, the signal
rotor should be positioned so that current can flow to the
ignition coil.
3. Disconnect the high tension cable from the center tower of
the distributor cap, and hold the end of the cable about 5 - 10
mm (.2 - .4 in.) away from the cylinder block of the engine.
4. Turn the ignition switch to “ON”. Then, when a piece of metal
(the tip of a screwdriver for instance) is inserted into the de-
tection coil of the pick-up and then moved away, a spak can be
generated.

Caution
If there is a malfunction of the ground contact of the
voltage regulator even once during vehicle operation,
the excessive current flowing through the heat coil of
the water temperature gauge and the fuel gauge will
cause permanent distortion of the bimetal, resulting in
the indications being consistently lower than the actual

For this reason, therefore, be sure to make the earth
contact securely.

2. INSTALLATION OF SPEEDOMETER CABLE
Insert the cable until its stopper properly fits to the
speedometer groove.
Caution
Poor installation of the cable may cause a fluctuating

AUTOMATIC FREE-WHEELING HUB INDICATOR SYSTEM - Generallnformation 8-211
3. Automatic free-wheeling hub in free condition
For the free condition, although there are (when the vehicle is traveling) output signals from the vehicle-
speed sensor, there are no signals from the pulse generator, with the result that the memory circuit is
erased (because reset signals are output from the lock-discrimination circuit), and so the indicaotr light
does not illuminate.

16W1546 The pulse generator is located at the rear part of the front
output shaft of the transfer, and is composed of the magnet,
the coil and the pole (iron core).
When a magnetic material (iron, nickel, etc.) is brought close
to and moved away from the pole (iron core), the magnetic flux
within the pole changes, thus generating AC voltage in the
coil.
Because the front output shaft does not rotate when the
automatic free-wheeling hub is in the free condition, there is
no generation of AC voltage in the pulse generator.
In the locked condition, however, the front output shaft and
the pulse rotor rotate, with the result that the magnetic flux
(within the p o e I (’ Iron core) of the pulse generator) changes in
accordance with the rotations of the pulse rotor, thereby
generating AC voltage in the coil.
This AC voltage is transmitted to the automatic free-wheeling
hub indicator control unit.

The control unit is composed of the pulse-detection circuit
(which receives the input signals from the pulse generator),
the vehicle-speed-detection circuit (which receives the input
signals from the vehicle-speed sensor), the lock-discrimination
circuit (which, based on both of these input signals, judges the
condition of the automatic free-wheeling hub ‘and then trans-
mits indicator output signals to the memory circuit), and the
memory circuit (which “memorizes” the indicator output
signals from the lock-discrimination circuti).

COMPRESSOR - The prime purpose of the compressor is to compress the low pressure refrigerant vapor
from the evaporator into a high pressure, high temperature vapor. The 6 cylinder 6P148 compressor is used.
MAGNETIC CLUTCH is mounted on the compressor providing a convenient way to drive and disengage
compressor in accordance to the cooling needs. CONDENSER is located in front of the radiator. Its function
is to cool the hot, high pressure refrigerant gas causing it to condense into high pressure liquid refrigerant.
RECEIVER DRIER is used to remove any traces of moisture from the refrigerant system. This component
incorporates the sight glass and fusible plug. SIGHT GLASS at the top of the receiver drier is provided as a
diagnostic tool to observe refrigerant flow and observe refrigerant level. THE FUSIBLE PLUG is located on
the receiver drier. Its function is to prevent damage to the air conditioning system in the event that
excessive pressure develops due to condenser air flow being restricted by, for example, leaves, newspaper,
an overcharge of refrigerant, or air in the system. LOW PRESSURE SWITCH prevents damage to the
compressor in case of system loss of refrigerant charge. EXPANSION VALVE - The expansion valve is used
for all applications. Its function is to meter refrigerant into the evaporator in accordance with cooling
requirements. EVAPORATOR COIL is located in the unit and its function is to cool and dehumidify the air
before it enters the vehicle. FREEZE UP CONTROL FIN THERMOSTAT SENSOR is installed at the heater
side of evaporator. The main function of a freeze control is to keep condensate water on the face of the
evaporator coil from freezing and restricting air flow. WATER TEMPERATURE SWITCH - When the
temperature of the radiator coolant became high, this switch functions to stop the compressor and prevent
engine overheating. SERVICE VALVE at the compressor and the discharge line. The valves are used to test
and service the refrigerant system. REFRIGERANT R-12 is used maximum amount 907 g (32 oz.) R-12.
COMPRESSOR OIL is used DENS0 oil 6 maximum amount 110 cc (3.7 U.S.fl.oz., 3.9 Imp.fl.oz.).
