LEVEL CHECK AT ROOM TEMPERATURE
The fluid level check at room temperature performed after repair or
fluid change before test driving is just preparation for level check of
normal operating temperature. The checking procedure itself is the
same as that described previously. If the fluid level is between FULL
COLD and LOW COLD, proceed to test drive. And when the fluid
temperature has reached the normal operating temperature, check
fluid level again and adjust it as necessary.
FLUID CHANGE
1) Lift up vehicle.
2) With engine is cool, remove drain plug from oil pan and drain A / T
fluid.
3) Install drain plug.

to clamp hose securely.
A / T THROTTLE CABLE
ADJUSTMENT
1) Pull inner cable by force of 2 N (0.2 kg, 0.45 lb) or less to be no
slack of inner cable with A / T throttle cable curved as shown in
the figure.
2) Fix stopper to inner cable with clearance ªcº.
Clearance ªcº : 0.8 ± 1.5 mm (0.03 ± 0.06 in.)
3)For G16 / J20 engines
a) Check clearance ªcº. If it is out of specifications, adjust it by
turning cable adjusting nut.
Clearance ªcº : 0.8 ± 1.5 mm (0.03 ± 0.06 in.)
b) Tighten lock nut securely.
For H25 engine
a) Warm up engine and transmission to normal operating tem-
perature.
b) Make sure that accelerator cable is adjusted as specified.
c) With throttle valve closed, check clearance ªcº which should
be within the following specification.
Clearance ªcº : 0.8 ± 1.5 mm (0.03 ± 0.06 in.)
If it is out of specification, adjust it by turning cable adjusting nut.

in ªDº, ª2º, ªLº or ªRº range. Also, check that back-up lamp lights
in ªRº range.
4) If faulty condition cannot be corrected by adjustment, discon-
nect transmission range switch coupler and check that continu-
ity exists as shown by moving select lever.
