Changing Engine Oil Filter
REMOVAL
1. Insert a suitable tool with a 12.7 mm square (1/2 inch square)
such as an extension bar and ratchet handle into the filter
body, and loosen the body by approximately 4 turns.

2. Set themmark of the filter body to the top position and dis-
charge the oil.
+Receive the oil discharged from the drain hose in a tray.
+About 500 cc (17.6 Imp fl oz) of oil will be discharged in about
3 minutes.
+The oil is discharged from the oil catcher to under the vehicle
through the drain hose.
3. Remove the filter body, and then remove the oil filter ele-
ment.
CAUTION:
+If the engine oil gets on the engine or vehicle, thoroughly
wipe it off.
+Thoroughly wipe off the oil remaining in the oil catcher.
(This is to prevent misidentifying oil leaking from the oil
catcher as oil leaking from the engine.)
4. Remove the O-ring from the filter body.
+Press the O-ring in any direction with your finger, and pull on
the portion of the O-ring separated from the filter body to
remove it.
CAUTION:
Because wire and screwdrivers may cause damage to the
filter body, do not use such tools.
INSTALLATION
1. Thoroughly remove foreign matter adhering to the inside of
filter body and O-ring mounting areas (of the body and oil
cooler).
2. Install the oil filter element and O-ring to the filter body.
+Securely press the oil filter element into the filter body.
3. Install the filter body.
:20-24Nzm (2.0 - 2.5 kg-m, 15 - 18 ft-lb)
4. After warming up the engine, check that no engine oil leaks.
Changing Engine Coolant
WARNING:
To avoid the danger of being scalded, never change the
coolant when the engine is hot.
ÐDRAINING ENGINE COOLANTÐ
1. Move heater TEMP control knob all the way to HOT.
2. Remove undercover and open radiator drain plug at the bot-
tom of radiator.

Pour coolant through coolant filler neck slowly to allow air
in system to escape.
11. Install radiator cap (side with pressure valve).
12. Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
13. Run engine at 2,000 rpm for 10 seconds and return to idle
speed.
+Repeat 2 or 3 times.
Watch coolant temperature gauge so as not to overheat the
engine.
14. Stop engine and cool it down.
+Cool down using a fan to reduce the time.
15. Remove the reservoir tank filler cap (side with pressure
valve) and check coolant level.
+If necessary, refill reservoir tank (side with pressure valve) up
to filler neck with coolant.
16. Refill reservoir tank to Max line with coolant.
17. Repeat step 10 through step 16 two or more times.
18. Warm up engine, and check for sound of coolant flow while
running engine from idle up to 2,000 rpm with heater tem-
perature control set at several positions between COOL and
HOT.
+Sound may be noticeable at heater water cock.
19. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeat-
ing steps 12 through 18 until coolant level no longer drops.
+Clean excess coolant from engine.
Checking Cooling System
CHECKING HOSES AND CLAMPS
Check hoses and clamps for proper attachment, leaks, cracks,
damage, loose connections, chafing and deterioration.
CHECKING RADIATOR CAP
Apply pressure to radiator cap (side with pressure valve) with
cap tester to see if it is satisfactory.
Radiator cap relief pressure:
59-98kPa
(0.59 - 0.98 bar, 0.6 - 1.0 kg/cm
2,9-14psi)

Pull the negative-pressure valve to open it. Check that it closes
completely when released.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
Apply pressure to the cooling system with cap tester to check for
leakage.
Testing pressure:
98 kPa (0.98 bar, 1.0 kg/cm
2, 14 psi)
CAUTION:
Use of higher pressure than the specified value may cause
damage to radiator.
Checking and Replacing Fuel Filter and
Draining Water
Be careful not to spill fuel in engine compartment. Place a
rag to absorb fuel.
CHECKING FUEL FILTER
Check fuel filter for fuel leakage, damage and other abnormal
signs.
REPLACING FUEL FILTER
1. Disconnect harness connector and drain fuel.
2. Remove fuel filter using band-type filter wrench.
3. Remove fuel filter and fuel filter sensor.
CAUTION:
Remove fuel filter without spilling fuel. If spilt, wipe off
immediately. Be specially careful not to spill fuel on engine
mount insulator.

4. Wipe clean fuel filter mounting surface on fuel filter bracket
and smear a little fuel on rubber seal of fuel filter.
5. Screw fuel filter on until a slight resistance is felt, then tighten
an additional more than 2/3 of a turn.
6. Install fuel filter sensor to new fuel filter. (Type A)
7. Bleed air from fuel filter.
Refer to ªAir Bleedingº in EC section.
8. Start engine and check for leaks.
DRAINING WATER
1. Drain water as follows.
Type A
Loosen drain cock and drain water.
Loosening drain cock four to five turns causes water to start
draining. Do not remove drain cock by loosening it exces-
sively.
If water does not drain properly, move the priming pump up and
down.
Type B
Loosen air bleeder screw from the sedimentor cover and then
loosen drain cock and drain water.
Loosening drain cock four to five turns causes water to start
draining. Do not remove drain cock by loosening it exces-
sively.
2. Bleed air.
Refer to ªAir Bleedingº in EC section.
Checking Fuel Lines
Check fuel lines and tank for proper attachment, leaks, cracks,
damage, loose connections, chafing and deterioration.
CAUTION:
Keep clean parts with compressed air when assembling.

Checking A/T Fluid
1. Warm up engine.
2. Check for fluid leakage.
3. Before driving, fluid level can be checked at fluid tempera-
tures of 30 to 50ÉC (86 to 122ÉF) using ªCOLDº range on
dipstick.
a. Park vehicle on level surface and set parking brake.
b. Start engine and move selector lever through each gear posi-
tion. Leave selector lever in ªPº position.
c. Check fluid level with engine idling.
d. Remove dipstick and note reading. If level is at low side of
either range, and fluid to the charging pipe.
e. Re-insert dipstick into charging pipe as far as it will go.
f. Remove dipstick and note reading. If reading is at low side
of range, add fluid to the charging pipe.
Do not overfill.
4. Drive vehicle for approximately 5 minutes in urban areas.
5. Re-check fluid level at fluid temperatures of 50 to 80ÉC (122
to 176ÉF) using ªHOTº range on dipstick.
CAUTION:
Securely install A/T fluid level gauge.
6. Check fluid condition.
+If fluid is very dark or smells burned, refer to AT section for
checking operation of A/T. Flush cooling system after repair
of A/T.
+If A/T fluid contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.),
replace radiator and flush cooler line using cleaning solvent
and compressed air after repair of A/T. Refer to LC section
(ªRadiatorº, ªENGINE COOLING SYSTEMº).
