1. Inspect for cracks, fraying, wear or oil adhesion. Replace if
necessary.
The belts should not touch the bottom of the pulley groove.
2. Check drive belt de¯ection by pushing on the belt midway
between pulleys.
Adjust if belt de¯ections exceed the limit.

Changing Engine Oil
WARNING:
+Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil is hot.
+Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may
cause skin cancer; try to avoid direct skin contact with
used oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with
soap or hand cleaner as soon as possible.
1. Warm up engine, and check for oil leakage from engine com-
ponents.
2. Remove oil ®ller cap and drain plug.
3. Drain oil and ®ll with new engine oil.
Oil grade: CCMC PD1 or PD2
Viscosity:
See ``RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND
LUBRICANTS'', MA-9.
Re®ll oil capacity (approximate):
Without oil ®lter change

CAUTION:
+Be sure to clean and install oil pan drain plug with washer.
Drain plug:
:29-39Nzm (3.0 - 4.0 kg-m, 22 - 29 ft-lb)
+The re®ll capacity changes depending on the oil tempera-
ture and drain time; use these valves as a reference and be
certain to check with the dipstick when changing the oil.

Limited-slip differential gear
+ Use only approved or recommended limited-slip differential
gear oil.
+ Limited-slip differential identi®cation.
(1) Lift both rear wheels off the ground.
(2) Turn one rear wheel by hand.
(3) If both rear wheels turn in the same direction simultaneously, vehicle is equipped with limited-slip differential.
Checking Front Wheel Bearing Grease
+Check that wheel bearings operate smoothly.
+ Check front wheel bearings for grease leakage and water or
dust entry.
+ Replace front wheel bearings or front wheel bearing grease if
wheel bearings do not turn smoothly.

Repacking Front Wheel Bearing and Axle Joint
Grease
FRONT WHEEL BEARING GREASE
Apply multi-purpose grease sparingly to the following parts:
+Threaded portion of spindle
+Contact surface between wheel bearing washer and outer
wheel bearing
+Grease seal lip
+Wheel hub (as shown at the left)
AXLE JOINT GREASE
+Drain approximately 2 liters (1-3/4 Imp qt) of differential oil.
+Remove knuckle spindle.
+Slightly pull out axle and repack axle joint with recommended
grease.
Refer to FA section.
Checking Free-running Hub Grease
Check free-running hub grease for leakage and water or dust entry.
Checking Water Entry in Knuckle Flange
+Check for water entry in knuckle ¯ange by removing one bolt
of lower knuckle ¯ange bearing cap and probing with a suitable
thin bar.
+After checking, be sure to reinstall the bolt to a tightening torque
of 30 to 40 Nzm (3.1 to 4.1 kg-m, 22 to 30 ft-lb).
Checking Brake Fluid Level and Leaks
If ¯uid level is extremely low, check brake system for leaks.

Checking Power Steering Fluid and Lines
+Check ¯uid level with engine off.
+Check ¯uid level with dipstick on reservoir cap. Use ``HOT''
range at ¯uid temperatures of 50 to 80ÉC (122 to 176ÉF). Use
``COLD'' range at ¯uid temperatures of 0 to 30ÉC (32 to 86ÉF).
CAUTION:
+Do not over®ll.
+Recommended ¯uid is Automatic Transmission Fluid type
``DEXRON
TMIII'' or equivalent.
+Check lines for improper attachment, leaks, cracks, damage,
loose connections, cha®ng or deterioration.
+Check rack boots for accumulation of power steering ¯uid.
Checking Steering Damper
Check steering damper for damage and oil leakage.
Checking Steering Gear Box and Linkage
STEERING GEAR
+Check gear housing and boots for looseness, damage or
grease leakage.
+Check connection with steering column for looseness.

Removal
+Remove propeller shaft.
+Remove drive shaft. Refer to FA section (``FRONT AXLE Ð
Knuckle Flange'').
+Remove axle shaft.
Refer to RA section (``REAR AXLE'').
+Remove front and rear ®nal drive mounting bolts.
CAUTION:
+Be careful not to damage spline, sleeve yoke and front oil
seal when removing propeller shaft.
+Before removing the ®nal drive assembly or rear axle
assembly, disconnect the ABS sensor harness connector
from the assembly and move it away from the ®nal drive/
rear axle assembly area. Failure to do so may result in the
sensor wires being damaged and the sensor becoming
inoperative.
Installation

Checking and Adjusting Drive Belts
Refer to MA section (``Checking Drive Belts'', ``ENGINE MAINTE-
NANCE'').
Checking Fluid Level
Check ¯uid level.
Use the correct range of the dipstick depending on the ¯uid tem-
perature. Use the ``HOT'' range at 50 to 80ÉC (122 to 176ÉF), or the
``COLD'' range at 0 to 30ÉC (32 to 86ÉF).
CAUTION:
+Do not over®ll.
+Recommended ¯uid is Automatic Transmission Fluid type
DEXRON
TMIII or equivalent.
Checking Fluid Leakage
Check the lines for improper attachment and for leaks, cracks,
damage, loose connections, cha®ng and deterioration.
1. Run engine between idle speed and 1,000 rpm.
Make sure temperature of ¯uid in oil tank rises to 60 to 80ÉC
(140 to 176ÉF).
2. Turn steering wheel right-to-left several times.
3. Hold steering wheel at each ``lock'' position for ®ve seconds and
carefully check for ¯uid leakage.
CAUTION:
Do not hold the steering wheel in a locked position for more
than 15 seconds.
4. If ¯uid leakage at connectors is noticed, loosen ¯are nut and
then retighten.
Do not overtighten connector as this can damage O-ring,
washer and connector.
