–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, gaskets are leaking. In such a case, replace cylinder head gas-
kets.
7. After inspection is completed, install removed parts.
8. Start engine, and confirm that engine runs smoothly.
9. Perform trouble diagnosis. If DTC appears, erase it. Refer to EC-73, "
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS" (WITH
EURO-OBD) or EC-520, "
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS" (WITHOUT EURO-OBD).

INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
Do not allow engine oil to get on mounting insulator. Be careful not to damage mounting insulator.
When installation directions are specified, install parts according to the direction marks on them referring
to figure of components. Refer to EM-78, "
Removal and Installation" .
Make sure that each mounting insulator is seated properly, and tighten mounting bolts and nuts.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Before starting engine, check the levels of engine coolant, engine oil and working fluid. If less than
required quantity, fill to the specified level.
Use procedure below to make sure there is no fuel leakage.
–Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, make sure there
are no fuel leaks at connection points.
–Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again if there are no fuel leaks at connection points.
Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of engine coolant, engine oil, working fluid,
fuel and exhaust gas.
Bleed air from passages in pipes and tubes of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
After cooling down engine, again check amounts of engine coolant, engine oil and working fluid. Refill to
specified level, if necessary.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL
NOTE:
Before starting engine, put vehicle horizontally and check the engine oil level. If engine is already started, stop
it and allow 10 minutes before checking.
1. Pull out oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
2. Insert oil level gauge and make sure the engine oil level is within
the range shown in the figure.
3. If it is out of range, adjust it.
ENGINE OIL APPEARANCE
Check engine oil for white turbidity or heavy contamination.
If engine oil becomes turbid and white, it is highly probable that it is contaminated with engine coolant.
Repair or replace damaged parts.
ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE
Check for engine oil leakage around the following area.
Oil pan
Oil pan drain plug
Oil pressure switch
Oil filter
Oil cooler
Intake valve timing control cover and intake valve timing control solenoid valve
Front cover
Mating surface between cylinder block and lower cylinder block
Mating surface between cylinder block and cylinder head
Mating surface between cylinder head and rocker cover
Crankshaft oil seals (front and rear)
OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:
Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.
Engine oil pressure check should be in “ Parking position” (A/T models) or “Neutral position” (M/T
models), and should apply parking brake securely.
1. Check engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
ENGINE OIL LEVEL" .
2. Remove RH undercover.
