 When instructed to use SST, use the specified tools. Always be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or unin-
structed operations.
 Exercise maximum care to avoid damage to mating or sliding surfaces.
 Dowel pins are used for several parts alignment. When replacing and reassembling parts with dowel pins,
check that dowel pins are installed in the original position.
 Cover openings of engine system with a tape or the equivalent, if necessary, to seal out foreign materials.
 Mark and arrange disassembly parts in an organized way for easy troubleshooting and reassembly.
 When loosening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, start with the one furthest outside, then the one diagonally
opposite, and so on. If the order of loosening is specified, do exactly as specified. Power tools may be used
in the step.
Precaution for Inspection, Repair and ReplacementINFOID:0000000003802230
Before repairing or replacing, thoroughly inspect parts. Inspect new replacement parts in the same way, and
replace if necessary.
Precaution for Assembly and InstallationINFOID:0000000003802231
 Use torque wrench to tighten bolts or nuts to specification.
 When tightening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, equally tighten in several different steps starting with the
ones in center, then ones on inside and outside diagonally in this order. If the order of tightening is specified,
do exactly as specified.
 Replace with new gasket, packing, oil seal or O-ring.
 Dowel pins are used for several parts alignment. When replacing and reassembling parts with dowel pins,
check that dowel pins are installed in the original position.
 Thoroughly wash, clean, and air-blow each part. Carefully check engine oil or engine coolant passages for
any restriction and blockage.
 Avoid damaging sliding or mating surfaces. Completely remove foreign materials such as cloth lint or dust.
Before assembly, oil sliding surfaces well.
 Release air within route when refilling after draining engine coolant.
 After repairing, start the engine and increase engine speed to check engine coolant, fuel, engine oil, and
exhaust gases for leakage.
Precaution for Angle TighteningINFOID:0000000003802232
 Use the angle wrench [SST: KV10112100 (BT8653-A)] for the final tightening of the following engine parts:
- Cylinder head bolts
- Main bearing cap bolts
- Connecting rod cap bolts
- Crankshaft pulley bolt (No the angle wrench is required as bolt flange is provided with notches for angle
tightening)
 Never use a torque value for final tightening.
 The torque value for these parts are for a preliminary step.

COMPRESSION PRESSURE
COMPRESSION PRESSURE
InspectionINFOID:0000000003802245
1. Warm up engine thoroughly. Then, stop it.
2. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-411, "
Inspection".
3. Disconnect fuel pump fuse to avoid fuel injection during measurement. Refer to EC-20,
"ComponentPartsLocation".
4. Remove engine cover. Refer to EM-24, "
Exploded View".
5. Remove ignition coil and spark plug from each cylinder. Refer to EM-49, "
Exploded View".
6. Connect engine tachometer (not required in use of CONSULT-III).
7. Install compression gauge with an adapter (commercial service
tool) onto spark plug hole.
 Use the adapter whose picking up end inserted to spark plug
hole is smaller than 20 mm (0.79 in) in diameter. Otherwise, it
may be caught by cylinder head during removal.
8. With accelerator pedal fully depressed, turn ignition switch to “START” for cranking. When the gauge
pointer stabilizes, read the compression pressure and the engine rpm. Perform these steps to check each
cylinder.
CAUTION:
Always use a fully charged battery to obtain the specified engine speed.
 If the engine speed is out of the specified range, check battery liquid for proper gravity. Check the
engine speed again with normal battery gravity.
 If compression pressure is below minimum value, check valve clearances and parts associated with
combustion chamber (valve, valve seat, piston, piston ring, cylinder bore, cylinder head, cylinder head
gasket). After the checking, measure compression pressure again.
 If some cylinder has low compression pressure, pour small amount of engine oil into the spark plug hole
of the cylinder to recheck it for compression.
- If the added engine oil improves the compression, piston rings may be worn out or damaged. Check pis-
ton rings and replace if necessary.
- If the compression pressure remains at low level despite the addition of engine oil, valves may be mal-
functioning. Check valves for damage. Replace valve or valve seat accordingly.
 If two adjacent cylinders have respectively low compression pressure and their compression remains
low even after the addition of engine oil, cylinder head gaskets are leaking. In such a case, replace cyl-
inder head gaskets.
9. After inspection is completed, install removed parts.

TIMING CHAIN
 Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
- Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak-
age at connection points.
- Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
 Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside chain tensioner drops after removal/installation, slack in guide may generate a
pounding noise during and just after the engine start. However, this does not indicate an unusualness. Noise
will stop after hydraulic pressure rises.
 Warm up engine thoroughly to check there is no leakage of fuel, or any oil/fluids including engine oil and
engine coolant.
 Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
 After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.
