STEERING WHEEL AXIAL END PLAY
1. Check installation conditions of steering gear assembly, front suspension assembly, axle and steering col-
umn assembly.
2. Check if movement exists when steering wheel is moved up and down, to the left and right and to the axial
direction.
3. Check the following items when steering wheel axial end play is out of the standard.
 Check the steering column assembly mounting condition. Refer to ST-13, "
Exploded View".
 Check steering gear assembly mounting condition for looseness. Refer to ST-18, "
Exploded View".
STEERING WHEEL PLAY
1. Turn steering wheel so that front wheels come to the straight-ahead position.
2. Start the engine and lightly turn steering wheel to the left and right until front wheels start to move.
3. Measure steering wheel movement on the outer circumference.
4. Check the following items when steering wheel play is out of the standard.
 Check backlash for each joint of steering column assembly.
 Check installation condition of steering gear assembly.
NEUTRAL POSITION STEERING WHEEL
1. Check that steering gear assembly, steering column assembly and steering wheel are installed in the cor-
rect position.
2. Perform neutral position inspection after wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-7, "
Wheel Alignment Inspection".
3. Set the vehicle to the straight-ahead position and confirm steering wheel is in the neutral position.
4. Loosen outer socket lock nut and turn inner socket to left and right equally to make fine adjustments if
steering wheel is not in the neutral position.
STEERING WHEEL TURNING FORCE
1. Park the vehicle on a level and dry surface, set parking brake.

RELIEF OIL PRESSURE
CAUTION:
Make sure that belt tension is normal before starting the following procedure.
1. Connect the oil pressure gauge (SST: KV48103500) and the oil
pressure gauge adapter (SST: KV48102500) between oil pump
discharge connector and high-pressure hose. Bleed air from the
hydraulic circuit while opening valve fully. Refer to ST-7,
"Inspection".
2. Start the engine. Run the engine until oil temperature reaches
50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F).
CAUTION:
 Leave the valve of the oil pressure gauge fully open while
starting and running the engine. If engine is started with
the valve closed, the hydraulic pressure in oil pump goes
up to the relief pressure along with unusual increase of oil
temperature.
 Be sure to keep hose clear of belts and other parts when
engine is started.
3. Fully close the oil pressure gauge valve with engine at idle and
measure the relief oil pressure.
CAUTION:
Never keep valve closed for 10 seconds or longer.
4. Open the valve slowly after measuring. Repair oil pump if the relief oil pressure is outside the standard.
Refer to ST-29, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
5. Disconnect the oil pressure gauge from hydraulic circuit.
6. When installing eye bolt (1) and copper washers (2) to oil pump
(3), refer to the figure.
CAUTION:
 Never reuse copper washer.
 Apply power steering fluid or equivalent to around copper
washer, then install eye bolt.
 Install eye bolt with eye joint (assembled to high pressure
hose) (B) protrusion (A) facing with pump side cutout, and
then tighten it to the specified torque after tightening by
hand. Refer to ST-34, "
Exploded View".
 Securely insert harness connector to pressure sensor.
