3. Check spray pattern by pumping tester handle one full stroke
per second.
a. If main spray angle is within 30 degrees as shown, injec-
tion nozzle is good.
b. It is still normal even if a thin stream of spray deviates
from main spray (pattern B).
4. If initial injection pressure or injection nozzle is not normal,
adjust or clean injection nozzle.
5. Test again. If it is not corrected, replace nozzle.
Refer to EC section for injection pressure adjustment, clean-
ing and replacement.
6. Install all injection nozzles with Tool and securely connect
fuel spill tube and delivery tubes.
7. Bleed air from fuel system and check for fuel leakage with
engine running.
Injection nozzle to cylinder head:
:54-64Nzm (5.5 - 6.5 kg-m, 40 - 47 ft-lb)
Spill tube nut:
:29-39Nzm (3.0 - 4.0 kg-m, 22 - 29 ft-lb)
Injection tube:
:20-25Nzm (2.0 - 2.5 kg-m, 14 - 18 ft-lb)
Checking Idle Speed
Preparation
1. Make sure that injection timing is correct.
2. Make sure that injection nozzles are in good condition.
3. Make sure that the following parts are in good condition.
lAir cleaner clogging
lGlow system
lEngine oil and coolant levels
lValve clearance
lAir intake system (Oil filler cap, oil level gauge, etc.)
4. Set shift lever in ``Neutral'' position. Engage parking brake
and lock both front and rear wheels with wheel chocks.
5. Turn off air conditioner, lights and accessories.
6. Make sure that idle control knob is fully released and idle
adjusting screw contacts accelerator control lever.

Measurement of Compression Pressure
1. Warm up engine.
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. Release fuel pressure.
Refer to EC section (``Fuel Pressure Release'', ``BASIC SER-
VICE PROCEDURE'').
4. Remove all spark plugs.
5. Disconnect distributor center cable.
6. Attach a compression tester to No. 1 cylinder.
7. Depress accelerator pedal fully to keep throttle valve wide
open.
8. Crank engine and record highest gauge indication.
9. Repeat the measurement on each cylinder.
lAlways use a fully-charged battery to obtain specified
engine speed.
Compression pressure:
kPa (bar, kg/cm
2, psi)/rpm
Standard
1,324 (13.24, 13.5, 192)/300
Minimum
981 (9.8, 10, 142)/300
Difference limit between cylinders
98 (0.98, 1.0, 14)/300
10. If compression in one or more cylinders is low:
a. Pour a small amount of engine oil into cylinders through
spark plug holes.
b. Retest compression.
lIf adding oil helps compression, piston rings may be
worn or damaged. If so, replace piston rings after check-
ing piston.
lIf pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or seating
improperly. Inspect and repair valve and valve seat.
(Refer to SDS.) If valve or valve seat is damaged
excessively, replace them.
lIf compression stays low in two cylinders that are next
to each other:
a. The cylinder head gasket may be leaking, or
b. Both cylinders may have valve component damage.
Inspect and repair as necessary.

CAUTION:
lWhen installing rocker arms, camshaft and oil seal, lubri-
cate contacting surfaces with new engine oil.
lWhen tightening cylinder head bolts and rocker shaft
bolts, lubricate bolt threads and seat surfaces with new
engine oil.
lHydraulic valve lifters are installed in each rocker arm.
If hydraulic valve lifter is kept on its side, even when
installed in rocker arm, there is a risk of air entering it.
When rocker arms are removed, stand them straight up
or soak them in new engine oil.
lDo not disassemble hydraulic valve lifter.
lAttach tags to valve lifters so as not to mix them up.
Removal
1. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC section (``Fuel Pressure
Release'').
2. Drain coolant from radiator and drain plug of block.
3. Remove the following parts.
lPower steering drive belt
lPower steering pump, idler pulley and power steering brack-
ets
lVacuum hoses of swirl control valve and pressure control
solenoid valve
lAccelerator wire bracket
4. Remove bolts which hold intake manifold collector to intake
manifold.
5. Remove bolts which hold intake manifold to cylinder head
while raising collector upwards.
6. Remove exhaust manifold cover and exhaust manifold.
7. Remove rocker cover.
lWhen removing rocker cover, do not hit rocker cover
against rocker arm.
8. Set No. 1 piston at TDC on its compression stroke.

WARNING:
lPosition vehicle on a flat and solid surface.
lPlace chocks at front and back of rear wheels.
lDo not remove engine until exhaust system has com-
pletely cooled off.
Otherwise, you may burn yourself and/or fire may break
out in fuel line.
lBefore disconnecting fuel hose, release fuel pressure.
Refer to EC section (``Fuel Pressure Release'').
lBe sure to hoist engine and transmission in a safe man-
ner.
lFor engines not equipped with engine slingers, attach
proper slingers and bolts described in PARTS CATA-
LOG.
CAUTION:
lWhen lifting engine, be sure to clear surrounding parts.
Take special care near accelerator wire casing, brake
lines and brake master cylinder.
lIn lifting the engine, always use engine slingers in a safe
manner.
lFor 4WD models, apply sealant between engine and
transmission. Refer to MT section (``Removal and Instal-
lation'').
