Compression
2. Compression
A: INSPECTION
CAUTION:
After warming-up, engine becomes very hot. Be
careful not to burn yourself during measure-
ment.
1) After warming-up the engine, turn the ignition
switch to OFF.
2) Make sure that the battery is fully charged.
3) Release the fuel pressure.
TION, Fuel.>
4) Remove all the spark plugs.
5) Fully open the throttle valve.
6) Check the starter motor for satisfactory perfor-
mance and operation.
7) Hold the compression gauge tight against spark
plug hole.
NOTE:
When using a screw-in type compression gauge,
the screw (put into cylinder head spark plug hole)
should be less than 18 mm (0.71 in) long.
8) Crank the engine by means of starter motor, and
then read the maximum value on the gauge when
the pointer is steady.
9) Perform at least two measurements per cylinder,
and make sure that the values are correct.
Compression (350 rpm and fully open throttle):
Standard;
1,275 kPa (13.0 kgf/cm
2, 185 psi)
Limit;
1,020 kPa (10.4 kgf/cm
2, 148 psi)
Difference between cylinders;
49 kPa (0.5 kgf/cm
2, 7 psi), or less

Idle Speed
3. Idle Speed
A: INSPECTION
1) Before checking idle speed, check the following:
(1) Ensure the air cleaner element is free from
clogging, ignition timing is correct, spark plugs
are in good condition, and the hoses are con-
nected properly.
(2) Ensure the malfunction indicator light does
not illuminate.
2) Warm-up the engine.
3) Stop the engine, and then turn the ignition switch
to OFF.
4) When using the Subaru Select Monitor, refer to
the following.
tion.>
(1) Insert the cartridge to Subaru Select Moni-
tor.
(2) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to data
link connector.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to ON, and Subaru
Select Monitor switch to ON.
(4) Select the {Each System Check} in Main
Menu.
(5) Select the {Engine Control System} in Se-
lection Menu.
(6) Select the {Current Data Display & Save} in
Engine Control System Diagnosis.
(7) Select the {Data Display} in Data Display
Menu.
(8) Start the engine, and then read the engine
idle speed.
5) When using the tachometer (Secondary pick-up
type).
(1) Attach the pick-up clip to No. 1 cylinder
spark plug cord.(2) Start the engine, and then read the engine
idle speed.
NOTE:
When using the OBD-II general scan tool, care-
fully read its operation manual.
This ignition system provides simultaneous igni-
tion for #1 and #2 plugs. It must be noted that some
tachometers may register twice that of actual en-
gine speed.
6) Check the idle speed when unloaded. (With
headlights, heater fan, rear defroster, radiator fan,
air conditioning, etc. OFF)
Idle speed [No load and gears in “N” or “P”
range]:
650
±100 rpm
7) Check the idle speed when loaded. (Turn the air
conditioning switch to “ON” and operate the com-
pressor for at least 1 minute before measurement.)
Idle speed [A/C “ON”, no load and gears in “N”
or “P” range]:
850
±100 rpm
NOTE:
Idle speed can not be adjusted manually, because
the idle speed is automatically adjusted.
If the specified idle speed can not be maintained,
refer to General On-board Diagnosis Table under
“Engine Control System”.

Valve Clearance
8. Valve Clearance
A: INSPECTION
NOTE:
Inspection and adjustment of the valve clearance
should be performed while engine is cold.
1) Set the vehicle on a lift.
2) Lift-up the vehicle.
3) Remove the under cover.
4) Lower the vehicle.
5) Disconnect the ground cable from battery.
6) Remove the belt cover (LH).
7) When inspecting the #1 and #3 cylinders:
(1) Disconnect the spark plug cords from spark
plugs RH side.
(2) Disconnect the PCV hose from rocker cover
(RH).
(3) Remove the bolts, and then remove the
rocker cover (RH).
8) When inspecting the #2 and #4 cylinders:
(1) Disconnect the spark plug cords from spark
plugs (LH Side)
(2) Disconnect the PCV hose from rocker cover
(LH).
(3) Remove the bolts, and then remove the
rocker cover (LH).
9) Set the #1 cylinder piston to top dead center of
compression stroke by rotating crank pulley clock-
wise using a socket wrench.NOTE:
When arrow mark (A) on the cam sprocket (LH)
comes exactly to the top, #1 cylinder piston is
brought to the top dead center of compression
stroke.
10) Measure the #1 cylinder valve clearance by us-
ing thickness gauge.
CAUTION:
Insert the thickness gauge (A) in as horizon-
tal a direction as possible with respect to the
valve stem end face.
Measure the exhaust valve clearances while
lifting-up the vehicle.
Valve clearance (Standard):
Intake;
0.20
±0.04 mm (0.0079±0.0016 in)
Exhaust;
0.25
±0.04 mm (0.0098±0.0016 in)
11) If necessary, adjust the valve clearance.
ance.>
12) Similar to measurement procedures used for
#1 cylinder, measure the #2, #3 and #4 cylinder
valve clearances.
NOTE:
Be sure to set the cylinder pistons to their re-
spective top dead centers on compression stroke
before measuring valve clearances.
