AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL) 1B-25
On-Vehicle Service
Precaution
When servicing air conditioning system, the following rules must be observed.
Piping
When connecting hoses and pipes, apply a few drops of compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to seats of coupling
nuts and O-ring. WARNING:
Should refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) strike your eye(s), consult a doctor immediately.
DO NOT USE YOUR HAND TO RUB AFFECTED EYE(S).
Instead, use quantities of fresh cold water to splash it over affected area to thus gradually raise its
temperature above the freezing point.
Obtain proper treatment as soon as possible from a doctor or eye specialist.
Should liquid refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) get on your skin, such affected part should be treated
in the same manner as when skin is frostbitten or frozen.
CAUTION:
None of refrigerant, compressor oil and component parts is interchangeable between two types of
A/C: one using CFC-12 (R-12) and the other using HFC-134a (R-134a).
(For identification between these two types, refer to “REFRIGERANT TYPE” in this section.
When replenishing or changing refrigerant and compressor oil and when replacing parts, make sure
that the material or the part to be used is appropriate to the A/C installed in the vehicle being serviced.
Use of incorrect one will result in leakage of refrigerant, damage in parts or other faulty condition.
NOTE:
Single A/C model is the same as SQ625 (H25 engine) model. Refer to the same section of the Service
Manual mentioned in FOREWORD of this manual.

AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL) 1B-27
Replenishing compressor oil
When replacing air conditioning parts with new ones, it is neces-
sary to replenish oil by the amount supposedly remaining in each
part.
WHEN CHANGING GAS ONLY
When it is unavoidable to change gas without replacing any com-
ponent part for engine removal and installation or for some other
reason, replenish 20 cm
3 (20cc) oil. When replenishing gas only,
oil replenishment is not necessary.
WHEN REPLACING COMPRESSOR
Compressor oil is sealed in each new compressor by the amount
required for air conditioner cycle. Therefore, when using a new
compressor for replacement, drain oil from it by the amount calcu-
lated as follows.
“C” = “A” – “B”
“C” : Amount of oil to be drained
“A” : Amount of oil sealed in a new compressor
“B” : Amount of oil remaining in removed compressor
Amount of oil in new compressor :

INSPECTION
1) Install manifold gauge set (1) as shown in the figure.
2) Close Hi (4) and Lo (5) side valves.
3) Run engine at fast idle.
4) Check compressor for the following items.
If any of the above checks indicated a defect, repair com-
pressor.
High pressure gauge reading is not low and low pressure
gauge reading is not higher than normal.
Metallic sound.
Leakage from compressor. CAUTION:
None of refrigerant, compressor oil and component parts is interchangeable between two types of
A/C: one using CFC-12 (R-12) and the other using HFC-134a (R-134a).
For identification between these two types, refer to page 66.
When replenishing or changing refrigerant and compressor oil and when replacing parts, make sure
that the material or the part to be used is appropriate to the A/C installed in the vehicle being serviced.
Use of incorrect refrigerant or compressor oil will result in leakage of refrigerant, damage in parts or
other faulty condition.
When servicing the compressor, keep dirt or foreign material away from getting on or into the com-
pressor parts and system. Clean tools and a clean work area are important for proper service.
The compressor connection and the outside of the compressor should be cleaned before any “On-
vehicle” repair or before removal of the compressor. The parts must be kept clean at all times and any
parts to be reassembled should be cleaned with Trichloromethane, naphtha, kerosene or equivalent
solvent and dried with dry air. Use only lint free cloths to wipe parts.
The operations described are based on bench overhaul with compressor removed from the vehicle,
except as noted. They have been prepared in order of accessibility of the components.
When compressor is removed from the vehicle for servicing, the oil remaining in the compressor
should be discarded and new refrigerant oil added to the compressor.
Minor repair procedures may be done on the vehicle without discharging the system. Major repair pro-
cedures require that the system be discharged of refrigerant.

5) Check relief pressure.
a) Increase engine speed to about 1500 r/min (rpm). Close
gauge valve gradually while watching pressure increase
indicated by gauge and take reading of relief pressure
(maximum hydraulic pressure).
When it is higher than specified values, possible cause is
malfunction of relief valve.
When it is lower than specified values, possible cause is
either failure of P/S pump or settling of relief valve spring.
Relief pressure (when gauge valve is closed) :
7650 – 8350 kPa (76.5 – 83.5 kg/cm
2, 1088 – 1187 psi)
b) Next, open gauge valve fully and increase engine speed to
about 1500 r/min (rpm). Then turn steering wheel to the left
or right fully and take reading of relief pressure.
When it is higher than specified values, possible cause is
malfunction of relief valve.
When it is lower than specified values, possible cause is
failure in steering gear box. Replace gear box.
Relief pressure (when gauge valve is opened) :
7650– 8350 kPa (76.5 – 83.5 kg/cm
2, 1088 – 1187 psi) CAUTION:
Be sure not to close gauge valve for longer than 10 sec-
onds.

ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE) 6-1-3
General Information
Statement of Cleanliness and Care
An automobile engine is a combination of many machined, honed, polished and lapped surfaces with tolerances
that are measured in the thousands of an millimeter (ten thousands of inch). Accordingly, when any internal
engine parts are serviced, care and cleanliness are important. Throughout this section, it should be understood
that proper cleaning and protection of machined surfaces and friction areas is part of the repair procedure. This
is considered standard shop practice even if not specifically stated.
A liberal coating of engine oil should be applied to friction areas during assembly to protect and lubricate the
surface on initial operation.
Whenever valve train components, pistons, piston rings, connecting rods, rod bearings and crankshaft jour-
nal bearings are removed for service, they should be retained in order. At the time of installation, they should
be installed in the same locations and with the same mating surfaces as when removed.
Battery cables should be disconnected before any major work is performed on the engine. Failure to discon-
nect cables may result in damage to wire harness or other electrical parts.
Throughout this manual, the 6 cylinders of the engine are
identified by numbers; No.1, No.2, No.3, No.4, No.5 and No.6
as counted from crankshaft pulley side to flywheel side.
Figure at the left shows engine with intake manifold removed
and viewed from the top.
LH (No.1) bank consists of No.1, No.3 and No.5 cylinders.
RH (No.2) bank consists of No.2, No.4 and No.6 cylinders.
General Information on Engine Service
When raising or supporting engine for any reason, do not use a jack under oil pan. Due to small clearance
between oil pan and oil pump strainer, jacking against oil pan may cause it to be bent against strainer result-
ing in damaged oil pick-up unit.
It should be kept in mind, while working on engine, that 12-volt electrical system is capable of violent and
damaging short circuits.
When performing any work where electrical terminals could possibly be grounded, ground cable of the bat-
tery should be disconnected at battery.
Any time the air cleaner, air cleaner outlet hose, throttle body, surge tank pipe, intake collector or intake man-
ifold is removed, the intake opening should be covered. This will protect against accidental entrance of for-
eign material which could follow intake passage into cylinder and cause extensive damage when engine is
started.

CAUTION:
The following information on engine service should be noted carefully, as it is important in preventing
damage, and in contributing to reliable engine performance.

STEP 2. DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)/FREEZE FRAME DATA CHECK
First, check DTC, referring to “DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK” in this section. If DTC is indicated,
record DTC and freeze frame data.
After that clear DTC referring to “DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CLEARANCE” in this section. DTC indicates
malfunction that occurred in the system but does not indicate whether it exists now or it occurred in the past and
the normal condition has been restored now. To check which case applies, check the symptom in question
according to Step 5 and recheck DTC according to Step 6, 7.
Attempt to diagnose a trouble based on DTC in this step only or failure to clear the DTC (including pending DTC)
in this step will lead to incorrect diagnosis, trouble diagnosis of a normal circuit or difficulty in troubleshooting.
STEP 3. and 4. VISUAL INSPECTION
Be sure to perform visual check of the following items that support proper function of the engine.
STEP 5. TROUBLE SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION
Based on information obtained in Step 1 “CUSTOMER COMPLAINT ANALYSIS” and Step 2 “DTC/FREEZE
FRAME DATA CHECK”, confirm trouble symptoms. Also, reconfirm DTC according to “DTC CONFIRMATION
PROCEDURE” described in each “DTC FLOW TABLE”.NOTE:
For A/T vehicle, if only DTC P0705, P0715, P0720, P0741, P0743, P0751, P0753, P0756, P0758, or P1875
is indicated in this step, proceed to “DIAGNOSIS” in SECTION 7B1.
