WARNING:
To avoid the danger of being scalded, never drain the coolant when the engine is hot.
1. Disconnect mass air flow sensor harness connector from mass air flow sensor and clamp.
2. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-775, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" [QR20DE (WITH EURO-OBD)],
EC-1139, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" [QR20DE (WITHOUT EURO-OBD)], EC-42, "FUEL PRES-
SURE RELEASE" [QR25DE (WITH EURO-OBD)] or EC-452, "FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" [QR25DE
(WITHOUT EURO-OBD)].
3. Remove air cleaner case and air duct assembly. Refer to EM-14, "

b. Remove the cover using Tool (Seal cutter).
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage mounting surface.
12. Pull chain guide between camshaft sprockets out through front
cover.
13. Set No. 1 cylinder at TDC on its compression stroke with the fol-
lowing procedure.

●If the engine speed is out of specified range, check battery liquid for proper gravity. Check 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 cylinders have low compression pressure, pour small amount of engine oil into the spark plug
hole of the cylinder to re-check it for compression.
–If the added engine oil improves the compression, the piston rings may be worn out or damaged. Check
the piston rings and replace if necessary.
–If the compression pressure remains at low level despite the addition of engine oil, the valves may be
malfunctioning. Check the valves for damage. Replace the 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, the gaskets are leaking. In such a case, replace the cylinder
head gaskets.
8. Install spark plug, ignition coil and harness connectors.

InspectionEBS00KOG
LEVEL CHECK
●Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level within MIN to
MAX when engine is cool.
●Adjust engine coolant if too much or too little.
CHECKING RADIATOR SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
To check for leakage, apply pressure to the cooling system with a
tester.
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious
burns could occur from high pressure engine coolant escaping
from the radiator.
CAUTION:
Higher pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.
Changing Engine CoolantEBS00KOH
WARNING:
●To avoid being scalded, never change the engine coolant when the engine is hot.
●Wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully remove the cap. First, turn the cap a quarter of a turn
to release built-up pressure. Then turn the cap all the way.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Open radiator drain plug at the bottom of radiator, and remove
radiator cap.
●Be careful not to allow engine coolant to contact drive belts.
2. Open drain plug on cylinder block.
3. Remove reservoir tank and drain engine coolant.
4. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust,
corrosion or discoloration.
If contaminated, flush engine cooling system. Refer to CO-10,
"FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM" .
