GLOW PLUG
1. Remove glow plug connecting plate.
2. Check each glow plug for continuity.
Continuity should exist:Approximately 0.5W [at 25ÉC (77ÉF)]
I If NG, replace glow plug.
3. Install glow plug connecting plate securely.
I Do not bump glow plug heating element. If it is bumped,
replace glow plug with new one. [If glow plug is dropped
from a height above 10 cm (3.94 in), replace with new one.]
I If glow plug installation hole is contaminated with carbon,
remove using a reamer or suitable tool.
I Hand-tighten glow plug by turning it 2 to 3 times, then
tighten using a tool to specified torque.

On Board Diagnosis Logic
This diagnosis continuously monitors the engine coolant temperature.
If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.

CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant following the procedure in the LC
section, ªChanging Engine Coolantº. Also, replace the engine oil.
1) Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure to use coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA section, ªEngine Coolant Mixture Ratioº.
2) After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.

CHECK COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAK.
Apply pressure to the cooling system with
a tester, and check if the pressure drops.
Testing pressure:157 kPa (1.57 bar, 1.6 kg/cm
2, 23 psi)
Pressure should not drop.
CAUTION:
Higher than the specified pressure may
cause radiator damage.

CHECK RADIATOR CAP.
Apply pressure to cap with a tester.
Radiator cap relief pressure: 78 - 98 kPa (0.78 - 0.98 bar, 0.8 - 1.0
kg/cm
2, 11 - 14 psi)
OK
ENG Replace radiator cap.
CHECK THERMOSTAT.
1. Check valve seating condition at normal
room temperatures.
It should seat tightly.
2. Check valve opening temperature and valve lift.
Valve opening temperature:76.5ÉC (170ÉF) [standard]
Valve lift: More than 10 mm/90ÉC
(0.39 in/194ÉF)
3. Check if valve is closed at 5ÉC (9ÉF) below valve opening temperature.
For details, refer to LC section (ªThermo-
statº).
OK
ENG Replace thermostat
Check engine coolant temperature sensor.

A/T Fluid Check
FLUID LEAKAGE CHECK
1. Clean area suspected of leaking. Ð for example, mating sur-face of converter housing and transmission case.
2. Start engine, apply foot brake, place selector lever in ªDº posi- tion and wait a few minutes.
3. Stop engine.
4. Check for fresh leakage.
FLUID CONDITION CHECK
Fluid color Suspected cause
Dark or black with burned odor Wear of frictional material
Milky pink Water contamination Ð Road water enter-
ing through filler tube or breather
Varnished fluid, light to dark
brown and tacky Oxidation Ð Over or under filling, Ð Over-
heating
FLUID LEVEL CHECK
Refer to MA section (ªChecking A/T Fluidº, ªCHASSIS AND BODY
MAINTENANCEº).
Stall Test
STALL TEST PROCEDURE
1. Check A/T and engine fluid levels. If necessary, add.
2. Drive vehicle for approx. 10 minutes or until engine oil and ATF
reach operating temperature.ATF operating temperature: 50 - 80ÉC (122 - 176ÉF)
3. Set parking brake and block wheels.
4. Install a tachometer where it can be seen by driver during test.
I It is good practice to put a mark on point of specified
engine rpm on indicator.
5. Start engine, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in ªDº position.
6. Accelerate to wide open throttle gradually while applying foot brake.
7. Quickly note the engine stall revolution and immediately release throttle.
I During test, never hold throttle wide open for more than 5
seconds.
Stall revolution: 2,450 - 2,700 rpm
