Fuel Pressure Relief ProcedureS7RS0B1706003
CAUTION!
This work must not be done when engine is
hot. If done so, it may cause adverse effect to
catalyst.

NOTE
If ECM detects DTC(s) after servicing, clear
DTC(s) referring to “DTC Clearance in
Section 1A”.

1) Make sure that engine is cold.
2) Shift transaxle gear shift lever in “Neutral” (shift select lever in “P” range for A/T model), set parking
brake and block drive wheels.
3) Remove relay / fuse box cover.
4) Disconnect fuel pump relay (1) from relay / fuse box (2).
5) Remove fuel filter cap in order to release fuel vapor pressure in fuel tank, and then reinstall it.
6) Start engine and run it until engine stops for lack of fuel. Repeat cranking engine 2 – 3 times for about 3
seconds each time in order to dissipate fuel pressure
in lines. Fuel connections are now safe for servicing.
7) After servicing, connect fuel pump relay (1) to relay / fuse box and install re lay / fuse box cover.
Fuel Leakage Check ProcedureS7RS0B1706004
After performing any service on fuel system, check to
make sure that there are no fuel leakages as follows.
1) Turn ON ignition switch for 3 seconds (to operate fuel pump) and then turn it OFF.
Repeat this (ON and OFF) 3 or 4 times and apply
fuel pressure to fuel line until fuel pressure is felt by
hand placed on fuel feed hose.
2) In this state, check to see that there are no fuel leakages from any part of fuel system.
Fuel Lines On-Vehicle InspectionS7RS0B1706005
CAUTION!
Due to the fact that fuel feed line (1) is under
high pressure, use special care when
servicing it.

Visually inspect fuel lines for evidence of fuel leakage,
hose crack and deterioration or damage.
Make sure all cl amps are secure.
Replace parts as needed.
Fuel Pipe Removal and InstallationS7RS0B1706006
WARNING!
Before starting the following procedure, be
sure to observe “Precautions on Fuel System
Service” in order to reduce the risk or fire
and personal injury.

Removal
1) Relieve fuel pressure in fuel feed line according to “Fuel Pressure Relief Procedure”.
2) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
3) Disconnect fuel pipe joint and fuel hose (3) from fuel pipe (2) at the front and rear of each fuel pipe
referring to “Fuel Hose Disconnecting and
Reconnecting”.
4) Mark the location of clamps (1) on fuel pipes (2), so that the clamps can be reinstalled to where they
were.
5) Remove pipes (2) with clamp (1) from vehicle.
6) Remove clamp (1) from pipes (2).

Starting Motor Dismounting and RemountingS7RS0B1906001
Dismounting1) Disconnect negative (–) battery lead at battery.
2) Disconnect magnetic switch lead wire (1) and battery cable (2) from starting motor terminals.
3) Detach shift & select control cable bracket from transaxle. (M/T model only)
4) Remove starting motor mount bolt (3) and nut (4).
5) Remove starting motor (5).
Remounting
Reverse the dismounting procedure noting the following.
• Tighten battery cable nut (6) to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Starting motor battery cable nut (a): 9.8 N·m (0.98 kgf-m, 7.0 lb-ft)

Generator Test (Overcharged Battery Check)S7RS0B1A04004
1) To determine battery condition, refer to “Battery Description”.
2) If obvious overcharge condition exists as evidenced by excessive spewing of electrolyte, measure
generator “B” terminal voltage at engine 2000 rpm. 3) If measured voltage is higher than upper limit value,
proceed to disassemble generator.
4) Check ground of brushes. If brushes are not grounded, replace IC regulator. Then check field coil
for grounds and shorts, referring to “Generator
Inspection”.
Repair Instructions
Jump Starting in Case of EmergencyS7RS0B1A06001
CAUTION!
If vehicle is manual transaxle model and has
a catalytic converter, do not push or tow it to
start. Damage to its emission system and/or
to other parts may result.

Both booster and discharged battery should be treated
carefully when using ju mper cables. Follow the
procedure outlined as follows, being careful not to cause
sparks.
WARNING!
• Departure from these conditions or procedure described as follows could
result in:
– Serious personal injury (particularly to eyes) or property damage from such
causes as battery explosion, battery
acid, or electrical burns.
– Damage to electronic components of either vehicle.
• Remove rings, watches, and other jewelry. Wear approved eye protection.
• Be careful so that metal tools or jumper cables do not contact positive battery
terminal (or metal in contact with it) and
any other metal on vehicle, because a
short circuit could occur. • Never expose battery to open flame or
electric spark. Batteries generate gas
which is flammable and explosive.
• Do not allow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin, fabrics, or painted surface as fluid is
a corrosive acid. Flush any contacted area
with water immediately and thoroughly.
• Batteries should always be kept out of reach of children.
• Do not connect negative cable directly to negative terminal of dead battery.

1) Set parking brake and place automatic transaxle in PARK (NEUTRAL on manual transaxle). Turn off
ignition, turn off lights and all other electrical loads.
2) Check electrolyte level. If it is below low level line, add distilled water.
3) Attach end of one jumper cable to positive terminal of booster battery and the other end of the same
cable to positive terminal of discharged battery. (Use
12-volt battery only to jump start engine).
4) Attach one end of the remaining negative cable to negative terminal of booster battery, and the other
end to a solid engine ground (such as exhaust
manifold) at least 45 cm (18 in.) away from battery of
vehicle being started.
5) Start engine of vehicle with booster battery and turn off electrical accessories. Then start engine of the
vehicle with discharged battery.

WARNING!
When handling rear shock absorber (1) in
which high-pressure gas is sealed, make
sure to observe the following precautions.
• Don’t disassemble it.
• Don’t put it into the fire.
• Don’t store it where it gets hot.
• Before disposing it, be sure to drill a hole (approximately 3 mm (0.12 in.) diameter)
(2) in it where indicated by arrow in the
figure and let gas and oil out.
Be sure to wear eye shield since the gas
itself is harmless but the absorber drill
hole debris maybe blown out.
