10. If cylinder compression in one or more cylinders is low, pour a
small amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the spark
plug hole and retest compression.
+If adding oil improves cylinder compression, piston rings
may be worn or damaged. If so, replace piston rings after
checking piston.
+If pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or seating
improperly. Inspect and repair valve and valve seat. Refer
to SDS, EM-70. If valve or valve seat is damaged
excessively, replace them.
+If compression in any two adjacent cylinders is low and if add-
ing oil does not improve compression, there is leakage past the
gasket surface. If so, replace cylinder head gasket.
11. Reinstall spark plugs, ignition coils and fuel pump fuse.
12. Perform ªSelf-diagnosis Procedureº referring to EC-68, ªHow
to Erase DTCº if any DTC appears.

SEF706Y
Engine Fuel & Emission Control System=NJEC0004+Always use a 12 volt battery as power source.
+Do not attempt to disconnect battery cables while engine
is running.
+Before connecting or disconnecting the ECM harness
connector, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect nega-
tive battery terminal. Failure to do so may damage the
ECM because battery voltage is applied to ECM even if
ignition switch is turned off.
SEF707Y
+Do not disassemble ECM.
+If a battery terminal is disconnected, the memory will
return to the ECM value.
The ECM will now start to self-control at its initial value.
Engine operation can vary slightly when the terminal is
disconnected. However, this is not an indication of a prob-
lem. Do not replace parts because of a slight variation.
SEF908W
+When connecting or disconnecting ECM harness
connector, use lever as shown.
When connecting, fasten connector securely with lever
moved until it stops.
SEF291H
+When connecting or disconnecting pin connectors into or
from ECM, take care not to damage pin terminals (bend or
break).
Make sure that there are not any bends or breaks on ECM
pin terminals when connecting pin connectors.
+Securely connect ECM harness connectors.
A Poor connection can cause an extremely high (surge)
voltage to develop in coil and condenser, thus resulting in
damage to ICs.
+Keep ECM harness at least 10 cm (4 in) away from adja-
cent harness, to prevent an ECM system malfunctions due
to receiving external noise, degraded operation of ICs, etc.
+Keep ECM parts and harness dry.
