Jack up the front wheels and support them with jack stands.

Disconnect the return hose from the oil reservoir and plug the oil reservoir.

Connect a vinyl hose to the disconnected return hose, and drain the oil into a container.

Disconnect the high-tension cables and ignition coils.

While operating the starter motor intermittently, turn the steering wheel to the limit of left and then to the limit of right several times todrain the fluid.

After that, connect the high-tension cables and coils.

Connect the return hoses securely, and then fill the oil reservoir with the specified fluid.

Start the engine.

Check for oil leakage.

Stop the engine.

Fill the power steering fluid reservoir up to the "MAX"position with specified fluid.

Jack up the front wheels.

Disconnect the ignition coil high tension cable, and then, while operating the starter motor intermittently (for 15 to 20 seconds), turn the steering wheel to the limit of left and then to the limit of right five or six times.

Connect the high tension cable, and then start the engine (idling).

Turn the steering wheel to the left and then to the right, until there are no air bubbles in the oil reservoir.

Confirm that the fluid is not milky, and that the level is between "MAX"and "MIN" marks on the reservoir.

If the fluid level changes up and down considerably when the steering wheel is turned left and right or fluid overflows from the reservoir whenthe engine is stopped, air bleeding should be done again.

note

1.

If the fluid level varies 5mm (0.2 in.) or more, bleed the system again.

2.

If the oil level changes up and down when the steering wheel is turned or the fluid overflows from the reservoir when the engine is stopped, further air bleeding is required. If the air isn't removed, it can cause cavitationin the pump, noise and may damage the pump.

Press the V-belt, applying a pressure of 98 N (10 kg, 22 lb) at the specified point, and measure the deflection to confirm that it is within thestandard value range.

Install the V-belt. Loosen the adjusting bolt and then adjust the tension of the V-belt.

After that, tighten the hinge bolt and flange nut to the specified value.

Disconnect the pressure hose from the pump, and then connect the special tool between the pump and the pressure hose as illustrated.

Bleed the air. Start the engine and turn the steering wheel several times so that the fluid temperature rises to approximately 50~60°C (122~132°F)operating temperature.

Increase the engine speed to 1,000 rpm.

Close the shut-off valve of the special tool and measure the fluid pressure to confirm that it is within the standard value range.

Remove the special tool and then tighten the pressure hose to the specified torque.

Bleed the system.
