STANDARD TIGHTENING TORQUE
Each fastener should be tightened to the torque specified in each section of this manual. If no description or specifi-
cation is provided, refer to the following tightening torque chart for the applicable torque for each fastener. When
a fastener of greater strength than the original one is used, however, use the torque specified for the original fasten-
er.
NOTE:

For the flanged bolt, flanged nut and self-lock nut of 4T and 7T strength, add 10% to the tightening torque
given in the chart below.

The chart below is applicable only where the fastened parts are made of steel or light alloy.

at 20C, 68F
COMPRESSOR THERMAL SWITCH
Use an ohmmeter to check thermal switch for continuity. If there is
no continuity, replace it.

NOTE:
For J20 Type engine, refer to Section 6H ªGENERATOR BELTº.
INSPECTION
Check that belt is free from any damage and properly fitted in pulley
groove.
BELT TENSION CHECK
Check belt tension by measuring how much it deflects when
pushed at intermediate point between pulleys with about 10 kg
(22 lb) force.
Deflection of P / S belt:
6 ± 9 mm (0.24 ± 0.35 in.) G16 Type engine. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

BELT TENSION ADJUSTMENT
[For G16 Type engine]
a) To adjust P / S pump drive belt tension, use adjusting bolt of com-
pressor for A / C equipped vehicles and that of P / S pump for ve-
hicles without A / C.
b) Adjust belt tension to above specification.
c) Then tighten adjusting and mounting bolts to specified torque.
[For J20 Type engine]
To adjust P / S pump drive belt tension, refer to ªGENERATOR
BELTº in Section 6H.
[For H25 Type engine]
a) To adjust P / S pump drive belt tension, loosen tension pulley
bolts and turn tension pulley using hexagon wrench.
b) Adjust belt tension to above specification.
Then tighten tension pulley bolts to specified torque.

ASSEMBLY
REMOVAL
1) Take out fluid in P / S fluid reservoir with syringe or such.
2) Disconnect high pressure pipe from steering gear box by remov-
ing union bolt.
NOTE:
As fluid flows out of disconnected joints, put a receptacle
under joints or a plug to pipe.
3) Disconnect low pressure hose from steering gear box.
NOTE:
As fluid flows out of disconnected joints, put a receptacle
under joints or a plug to hose.
4) Remove steering lower shaft bolt.
5) Hoist vehicle and remove both right and left wheels.
6) Disconnect both right and left tie rod ends from knuckle, refer to
steps 2) to 3) of ªTIE-ROD END REMOVALº in this section.

7) Remove steering gear box mounting bolts and then remove
steering gear box from vehicle.
Steering gear box found to be in defective condition should be
replaced with a new one.
CAUTION:
Never disassemble P / S gear box. If perform this prohib-
ited service, it will affect original performance.
INSTALLATION
Reverse removal procedure for installation of steering gear box
noting the following points.

After confirming that front tire is in straight position, install steering
gear box to body temporarily. Next, with tie-rod end installed to
knuckle, set rack in position close to neutral. Then obtain the neu-
tral state by aligning match marks on pinion shaft and steering
gear case and insert steering lower joint into pinion shaft.
CAUTION:
Be sure to confirm that steering wheel and front tires
(wheels) are in straight position when inserting steering
lower joint into steering pinion shaft.

If a plug was put to disconnected pipe when removing steering
gear box, remove that plug before reconnecting pipe.

Use specified torque as given below.
