2. AUTO TENSIONER CHECK
(1) Stop the engine from the idle speed and check that the
belt rests within the auto tensioner pulley width.
(2) Remove the drive belt.
(For the removal of the drive belt, refer to P.11-9.)
(3) Fit a spinner handle or similar tool into the tool mounting
hole of the auto tensioner and turn the tensioner clockwise
and counterclockwise to ensure that it does not bind.
(4) If step (1) or (3), or both, have been checked abnormally,
replace the auto tensioner.
(5) Reinstall the drive belt.
3. LASH ADJUSTER CHECK
NOTE
If an unusual knocking noise can be heard immediately after
the engine has started or while it is running and if that is
probably attributable to the lash adjuster, make the following
checks.
(1) Check the engine oil and add or change oil as necessary.
NOTE
(1) If the engine oil level is low, air is taken in through
the oil screen, entering the oil passage.
(2) If the oil level is too high, the cranks agitate oil causing
oil to trap a large amount of air.
(3) Air does not easily separate from a deteriorated oil
that can contain an increased amount of air.
When air trapped in oil for these reasons gets into the
high-pressure chamber of the lash adjuster, the air in
the high-pressure chamber is compressed to shrink the
lash adjuster excessively while the valve is opening,
resulting in an unusual noise occurring. This is the same
symptom developing when the valve clearance is adjusted
to an excessive value.
The problem in this case is gone when air is released
from the lash adjuster.
(2) Start the engine and carry out several cycles (10 or less)
of mild racing*.
If the noise is gone after racing, it indicates that air has
been released from the high-pressure chamber of the
lash adjuster, restoring the lash adjuster to normal
operating conditions.
*:Gradually (extending over a 30-sec. period) increase
the engine speed from idle speed to 3,000 r/min and
then reduce it down to the idle speed gradually
(extending over a 30-sec. period).
11-5
NOTE
(1) If the vehicle is parked on a slope for a long time,
the amount of oil in the lash adjuster will decrease,
causing air to get into the high-pressure chamber
when the engine is started.
(2) After the vehicle has been parked for a long time,
oil drains out of the oil passage and it takes a long
time for the oil to reach the lash adjuster. This can
cause air to get into the high-pressure chamber.

(3) If the noise is not eliminated by racing, follow these steps
to check the lash adjuster.
a.Stop the engine.
b.Bring no. 1 cylinder to TDC on the compression stroke.
c.Push the rocker arms indicated by arrow A on the
left to see if they go down.
d.Slowly turn the crankshaft clockwise 360_.
e.Perform the same step as step c for rocker arms
indicated by arrow B.
f.Push the part of the rocker arm which contacts the
top of the lash adjuster. If the rocker arm can be
easily moved down to the bottom, the lash adjuster
is defective, requiring replacement.
When the lash adjuster is replaced, be sure first to
bleed the lash adjuster of air before installation. Then,
perform steps a through e to ensure that no abnormal
symptoms are noted.
NOTE
(1) The leak-down test is an effective means to
accurately determine if the lash adjuster is
operational or not.
(2) For the leak-down test and bleeding procedures,
refer to ENGINE WORKSHOP MANUAL.
If the rocker arm is felt binding and cannot be
pushed downward as you push it, the lash adjuster
is operational. Check for other possible causes
for the noise.
MD998782

(4) Lash adjuster replacement
Caution
From the cylinder from which the lash adjuster is
to be removed, turn the crankshaft to lower the piston,
as the valve contacts the piston when pushed down.
A rocker arm cannot be removed if it is lifted by the
cam. If this is the case, turn the crankshaft so that
the arm is not lifted.
a.Using the special tool, push the valve downward to
remove the roller rocker arm.
b.Remove the lash adjuster from the cylinder head.
c.Mount a brandnew lash adjuster which has been bled
of air in the cylinder head.
d.Using the special tool, lower the valve and install
the roller rocker arm.
NOTE
To mount the roller rocker arm, first place the pivot
side of the rocker arm on the lash adjuster, then push
down the valve; next, place the slipper side of the
rocker arm on the valve system side.

4. LASH ADJUSTER REPLACEMENT
Refer to (4) of the preceding paragraph.
5. IGNITION TIMING CHECK
Check that ignition timing is at the standard value.
Standard value: approx. 5_BTDC
NOTE
Ignition timing is variable within about ±7_, even under normal
operating.

6. IDLE SPEED CHECK AND IDLE MIXTURE
CHECK
(1) Run the engine at 2,000 to 3,000 r/min for 2 minutes.
(2) Check the CO and HC contents at idle.
Standard value
CO contents: 0.6% or less
HC contents: 300 ppm or less
7. COMPRESSION PRESSURE CHECK
(1) Before inspection, check that the engine oil, starter and
battery are normal. In addition, set the vehicle to the
pre-inspection condition.
(2) Remove all of the spark plugs.
(3) Disconnect the crank angle sensor connector.
NOTE
Doing this will prevent the engine-ECU from carrying out
ignition and fuel injection.
(4) Cover the spark plug hole with a shop towel etc., and
after the engine has been cranked, check that no foreign
material is adhering to the shop towel.
Caution
(1) Keep away from the spark plug hole when
cranking.
(2) If compression is measured with water, oil, fuel,
etc., that has come from cracks inside the cylinder,
these materials will become heated and will gush
out from the spark plug hole, which is dangerous.
11-8
Compression gauge
ENGINE – Engine Adjustments
(5) Set compression gauge to one of the spark plug holes.
(6) Crank the engine with the throttle valve fully open and
measure the compression pressure.
Standard value
(at engine speed of 250 r/min): 11.5 kg/cm
Limit (at engine speed of 250 r/min): 9.7 kg/cm
2
2
(7) Measure the compression pressure for all the cylinders,
and check that the pressure differences of the cylinders
are below the limit.
Limit: Max. 1.0 kg/cm
2
(8) If there is a cylinder with compression or a compression
difference that is outside the limit, pour a small amount
of engine oil through the spark plug hole, and repeat
the operations in steps (5) through (7).
a.If the compression increases after oil is added, the
cause of the malfunction is a worn or damaged piston
ring and/or cylinder inner surface.
b.If the compression does not rise after oil is added,
the cause is a burnt or defective valve seat, or pressure
is leaking from the gasket.
(9) Connect the crank angle sensor connector.
(10)Install the spark plugs.
(11)Install the ignition coil and connect the ignition coil
connector.
(12)Erase the diagnosis codes by keeping the battery minus
(–) cable disconnected for more than 10 seconds.
NOTE
This will erase the diagnosis code resulting from the crank
angle sensor connector being disconnected.

Vacuum gauge
8. MANIFOLD VACUUM CHECK
(1) Before inspection, set the vehicle to the pre-inspection
condition.
(2) Connect a tachometer connector.
(3) Attach a three-way union to the vacuum hose between
the fuel pressure regulator valve and the intake manifold,
and connect a vacuum gauge.
(4) Start the engine and check that idle speed is within
standard value.
Standard value: 850 ± 50 r/min
5.Check the manifold vacuum at idling.

and exhaust camshafts to turn, resulting in slackened
timing belt. Use care that the timing belt does not
come off the sprockets at this time.
(18)Pull up the slack of the timing belt by turning the tensioner
in illustrated direction using the special tool and a torque
wrench (0 – 5 Nm {0 – 0.5 kgf@m}).
(19)From this position, turn back the tensioner until the torque
wrench reading becomes 3.5 Nm {0.36 kgf@m}, then
secure it by tightening the retaining bolt.
(20)Remove the special tool attached in step (16).
(21)Rotate the crankshaft clockwise 2 turns. Then, leave it
intact 15 minutes.
(22)Check to see that the wire inserted when installing the
auto-tensioner can be pulled out lightly. If it can be pulled
out lightly, the timing belt is being tensioned properly.
If so, remove the wire. In addition, check that the rod
protrusion from the auto-tensioner meets the standard
value, which is also an indication of properly tensioned
timing belt.
Standard value: 3.8 – 4.5 mm
(23)If the wire cannot be removed with a light force, repeat
steps (16) through (21) until the proper belt tensioner
is obtained.

4. PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
ItemsSymptom
StartingWon’t startThe starter is used to crank the engine, but there is no combustion within the
cylinders, and the engine won’t start.
Fires up and diesThere is combustion within the cylinders, but then the engine soon stalls.
Hard startingEngine starts after cranking a while.
Idling
stability
Rough idle
Hunting
Engine speed doesn’t remain constant and changes at idle.
Usually, a judgement can be based upon the movement of the tachometer
pointer, and the vibration transmitted to the steering wheel, shift lever , body , etc.
This is called rough idle or hunting.
Incorrect idle speed The engine doesn’t idle at the usual correct speed.
Engine stall
(Die out)
Engine stall
(Pass out)
The engine stalls when the accelerator pedal is released, regardless of whether
the vehicles is moving or not.
The engine stalls when the accelerator pedal is depressed or while it is being
used.
DrivingHesitation, Sag“Hesitation” is the delay in response of the vehicle speed (engine speed) that
occurs when the accelerator is depressed in order to accelerate from the speed
at which the vehicle is now traveling, or a temporary drop in vehicle speed
(engine speed) during such acceleration. Serious hesitation is called “sag”.
(Refer to Figure 1.)
Poor accelerationPoor acceleration is inability to obtain an acceleration corresponding to the
degree of throttle opening, even though acceleration is smooth, or the inability
to reach maximum speed.
StumbleEngine speed increase is delayed when the accelerator pedal is initially
depressed for acceleration. (Refer to Figure 2.)
ShockThe feeling of a comparatively large impact or vibration when the engine is
accelerated or decelerated.

<Explanation on waveform>
The power supply voltage is being normally applied and, when a signal is received from the engine
ECU, the voltage drops to around 0 V for the period of time equivalent to its drive signal.
When the signal from the engine ECU turns OFF, the counter emf of the coil causes a voltage peak
to develop, thus resuming the power supply voltage.
Injector drive time:
The fuel injection time as determined by the engine ECU according to the output values of sensors
including AFS. Injector drive time = effective injection time + invalid injection time (Invalid injection
time: corrects operation time lag caused by a power supply voltage drop)
Solenoid coil counter emf:
When the signal from the engine ECU turns OFF, counter emf occurs in the injector coil (approx.
65 to 75 V).
Power supply voltage:
The power supply voltage is being applied in the absence of a signal from the engine ECU. If this
voltage is low, it extends the invalid injection time and, thus, the drive time.
<Waveform observation points>
Point A: Strength of solenoid coil counter emf
Solenoid coil counter emf is low or zero.Injector solenoid shorting
Point B: Injector drive time
When the engine is suddenly raced, the drive time temporarily
extends by a wide margin and soon returns to the normal

<Explanation of waveform>
The injector power supply voltage waveform shows a voltage drop caused by resistance of the resistor.
As the amount of current increases, voltage gradually decreases and a spike occurs at the plunger fully
opened position due to counter emf.
<Waveform observation points>
Point A: Voltage drop during fuel injection time (Refer to abnormal waveform example 1.)
Difference from standard waveformPossible cause
Voltage drop during fuel injection time is small (there
should normally be a voltage drop of about 10 V).
Resistance of resistor is too small. Resistance of injector
is too large.
Point B: Spike when plunger is fully open (Refer to abnormal waveform example 2.)
