Hydraulic Pressure In P/S Circuit Check
1) Clean where pipe is connected thoroughly, then disconnect
high pressure hose from high pressure pipe connector and
connect oil pressure gauge (special tool) as shown.
Special tool
(A) : 09915-77410
(B) : 09915-77420
2) Bleed air.
3) With engine running at idling speed, keep turning steering
wheel to the right and left till fluid in P/S fluid reservoir is
warmed to 50 to 60 °C (122 – 140 °F)
4) Back pressure check
With engine running at idling speed and hands off from
steering wheel, check hydraulic pressure.
If back pressure exceeds 980 kPa (10 kg/cm
2, 142 psi),
check control valve and pipes for obstruction.

5) Relief pressure check
a) Increase engine speed to about 1,500 to 1,600 rpm.
Close valve (6) gradually while watching pressure increase
indicated on gauge (4) and take reading of relief pressure
(maximum hydraulic pressure).
If higher than 8,400 kPa (85 kg/cm
2, 1208 psi), malfunction
of relief valve.
If lower than 6,400 kPa (65 kg/cm
2, 925 psi), failure of P/S
pump or settling of relief valve spring.
Relief pressure
6,400 – 8,400 kPa (65 – 85 kg/cm
2, 925 – 1208 psi)
b) Next, open gauge valve (6) fully and increase engine speed
to about 1,500 to 1,600 r/min. Then turn steering wheel to
the left or right fully and take reading of relief pressure.
If lower than 6,400 kPa (65 kg/cm
2, 1280 psi), failure in
steering gear.
Relief pressure
6,400 – 8,400 kPa (65 – 85 kg/cm
2, 925 – 1208 psi) CAUTION:
Be sure not to keep gauge valve closed for longer than
10 seconds.
Never keep steering wheel turned fully for longer than
10 seconds.

Shock Absorber and/or Coil Spring Check
1) Inspect shock absorber for oil leakage. If shock absorber is
found faulty, replace it as an assembly unit, because it can
not be disassembled.
2) Shock absorber function check
Check and adjust tire pressures as specified.
Bounce body three or four times continuously by pushing
front end on the side with shock absorber to be checked.
Apply the same amount of force at each push and note
shock absorber resistance both when pushed and rebound-
ing.
Also, note how many times vehicle body rebounds before
coming to stop after hands are off. Do the same for shock
absorber on the other side.
Compare shock absorber resistance and number of rebound
on the right with those on the left.
And they must be equal in both. With proper shock absorber,
body should come to stop the moment hands are off or after
only one or two small rebounds. If shock absorbers are sus-
pected, compare them with known good vehicle or shock
absorber.
3) Inspect for damage or deformation.
4) Inspect for cracks or deformation in spring seat.
5) Inspect for deterioration of bump stopper.
6) Inspect shock absorber mount for wear, cracks or deforma-
tion.Replace any parts found defective in steps 2) – 6).

Inspect for cracks, deformation or damage.

General Description
Tires
This vehicle is equipped with following tire.
Tire size
: 205/70 R15 or 175/80 R15
The tires are of tubeless type. The tires are designed to operate satisfactorily with loads up to the full rated load
capacity when inflated to the recommended inflation pressure.
Correct tire pressures and driving habits have an important influence on tire life Heavy cornering, excessively
rapid acceleration, and unnecessary sharp braking increase tire wear.
Wheels
Standard equipment wheels are following steel wheels.
15 x 5 1/2 JJ
Replacement Tires
When replacement is necessary, the original equipment type tire should be used. Refer to the Tire Placard.
Replacement tires should be of the same size, load range and construction as those originally on the vehicle.
Use of any other size or type tire may affect ride, handling, speedometer / odometer calibration, vehicle ground
clearance and tire or snow chain clearance to the body and chassis.
It is recommended that new tires be installed in pairs on the same axle. If necessary to replace only one tire, it
should be paired with the tire having the most tread, to equalize braking traction.
The metric term for tire inflation pressure is the kilopascal (kPa).
Tire pressures will usually be printed in both kPa and psi on the
Tire Placard. Metric tire gauges are available from tool suppliers.
The following chart, converts commonly used inflation pressures
from kPa to psi. WARNING:
Do not mix different types of tires on the same vehicle such as radial, bias and bias-belted tires except
in emergencies, because vehicle handling may be seriously affected and may result in loss of control.
