Place the lift blocks under the support points as shown in the illustration.

Raise the hoist a few inches and rock the vehicle to be sure it is firmly supported.

Raise the hoist to full height to inspect the lift points for secure support.

The radiator lower member is not equipped to the vehicle. So, the vehicle's cooling system including radiator and condenser, under cover and front bumper can be damaged.

The towing hook is located in the right inside of the front bumper. There is no support point for a sling - type equipment.

There is no engine center member and suspension frame in the vehicle.

Work must be started approx. 30 seconds or longer after the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position and the negative (-) battery cable is disconnected. (The airbag system is equipped with a back - up power source.ive (-) battery cable is disconnected.

If work is started within 30 seconds when disconnecting the negative (-) battery cable of the battery, the airbag may be operative.)

When the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, the clock and audio systems memories will be erased. Before starting work, record the setting of the audio memory system

When work is finished, reset the audio system as before and adjust the clock.

Malfunction symptoms of the airbag system are difficult to comfirm, so diagnostic codes become the most important source of information when troubleshooting. When troubleshooting the airbag system, always read the diagnostic trouble coodes befroe disconnecting the battery.

Never use airbag parts from another vehicle. When replacing parts, replace them with new parts.

Never attempt to disassemble and repair the airbag modules, SRSCM, clock spring and Air - bag wiring harness in order to reuse it.

If the SRSCM or air - bag module have been dropped, or if there are cracks, dents or other defects in the case, bracket or connector, replace them with new ones.

After work on the airbag system is completed, reset the airbag warning lamp.

Block the wheels.

Place a jack under the specified jacking point.

Support the vehicle with safety stands (jack stands) Refer to the page GI - 8.

Start the engine when engine compartment is clear.

Inspection of parts

Each part, when removed, should be carefully in spected for malfunction, deformation, damage, and other problems.

Arrangement of parts

All disassembled parts should be carefully arranged for effective reassembly.

Be sure to separate and correctly identify the parts to be replaced from those that will be used again.

Cleaning parts for reuse

All parts to be used again should be carefully and thoroughly cleaned by an appropriate mathod.

Oil seals

Gaskets

O-rings

Lock washers

Cotter pins (split pins)

Plastic nuts

Selalant should be applied to gaskets.

Oil should be applied to the moving components of parts.

Specified oil or grease should be applied to the prescribed locations (oil seals, etc.) before assembly.

Be sure to disconnect the battery cable from the negative (-) terminal of the battery.

Never pull on the wires when disconnecting connectors.

Locking connectors will click when the connector is secure.

Handle sensors and relays carefully. Be cardful not to drop them or hit them against other parts.

Basically, all measurements in this manual are taken with a tracking gauge.

When a measuring tape is used, check to be sure there is no elongation, twisting or bending.

For measuring dimensions, both projected dimensions and actual - measurement dimensions are used in this manual.

These are the dimensions measured when the measurement points are projected from the vehicle's surface, and are the reference dimensions used for body alterations.

If the length of the tracking gauge probes is adjustable, measure it by lengthening one of two probes as long as the different value in height of the two surfaces.

These dimensions indicate the actual linear distance between measurement points, and are used as the reference dimensions when a tracking gauge is used for measurement.

First adjust both probes to the same length (A=A') before measurement.

note

Check the probes and gauge itself to make sure there is no free play.

Check the terminal for tightness.

Check terminals and wires for corrosion from battery electrolyte, etc.

Check terminals and wires for open circuits.

Check wire insulation and coating for damage, cracks and degrading.

Check the conductive parts of terminals for contact with other metallic parts (vehicle body and other parts).

Check grounded parts to verify that there is complete continuity between thier attaching bolt(s) and the vehicle's body.

Check for incorrect wiring.

Check that the wiring is so clamped to prevent contact with sharp corners of the vehicle body, etc. or hot parts (exhaust manifold, etc.)

Check that the wiring is clamped firmly to provide enough clearance from the fan pulley, fan belt and other rotating or moving parts.

Check that the wiring has a little space so that it can vibrate between fixed and moving parts such as the vegicle body and the engine.

Prior to servicing the electrical system, be sure to turn off the ignition switch and disconnect the battery ground cable.

note

In the course of MFI or ELC system diagnosis, when the battery cable is removed, any diagnostic trouble code retained by the computer will be cleared. There fore, if necessary, read the diagnostic codes before removing the battery cable.

Attach the wiring harnesses with clamps so that there is no slack. However, for any harness which passes the engine or other vibrating parts of the vehicle, allow some slack within a range that does not allow the engine vibrations to cause the harness to come into contact with any of the surrounding parts, and then secure the harness by using a clamp.

If any section of a wiring harness interferes with the edge of a part, or a corner, wrap the section of the harness with tape or something similar in order to protect it from damage.

When installing any parts, be careful not to pinch or damage any of the wiring harnesses.

Never throw relays, sensors or electrical parts, or expose them to strong shock.

The electronic parts used in the computer, relays, etc. are readily damaged by heat. If there is a need for service operations that may cause the temperature to exceed 80°C (176°F), remove the electronicc parts beforehand.

Loose connectors cause problems. Make sure that the connectors are always securely fastened.

When disconnecting a connector, be sure to grip only the connector, not the wires.

Disconnect connectors which have catches by pressing in the direction of the arrows shown the illustration.

Connect connectors which have catches by inserting the connectors until they make a clicking sound.

When using a circuit tester to check continuity or voltage on connector terminals, insert the test probe into the harness side. If the connecs a sealed connector, insert the test probe through the hole in the rubber cap until it contacts the terminal, being careful not to damage the insulation of the wires.

To avoid overloading the wiring, take the electrical current load of the optional equipment into consideration, and determine the appropriate wire size.

Use only unleaded gasoline.

Do not run the engine while the car is at rest for a long time. Avoid running the engie at fast idle for more than 10 minutes and at idle speed for more than 20 minutes.

Avoid spart-jump tests. Do spart-jumps obly when absolutely necessary. Perform this test as rapidly as possible andm, while testing, never race the engine.

Do not measure engine compression for and extended time. Engine compression tests must be made as rapidly as possible.

Avoid coasting with the ignition turned off and during prolonged braking.

Do not dispose of a used catalytic converter together with parts contaminated with gasoline or oil.

If the engine is cold, run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature.

Turn off the engine.

Warm up the engine until the thermostat opens, remove the radiator cap and check the coolant level.

When the radiator is filled up to its filler neck, install the radiator cap securely.

Fill the reserve tank with coolant up to the "FULL" line.

With the vehicle parked on a level surface, remove the filler plug and make sure that the oil level is the same level as the plug hole.

Check that the transaxle oil is not dirty.

With the vehicle parked on a level surface, remove the magnetic plug to drain transaxle oil.

Replace the washer with a new one and reinstall the magnet plug.

Fill with transaxle oil (through the filler plug part) until the oil level is the same level as the plug hole.

Check the steering wheel freeplay.

Check the steering linkage for looseness and damage.

Park the vehicle on a level surface, start the engine, and then turn the steering wheel several times to raise the temperature of the fluid to approximately 50°C (122°F).

With the engine idling, turn the wheel all the way to the left and right several times. Check the fluid in the oil reservoir for foaming, and its level. Replenish the fluid in the oil reservoir through the oil filter if necessary.

Check the hose connections for fluid leaks.

The power steering hoses should be replaced if there is severe surface cracking, pulling, scuffing or worn steps. Deterioration of the hoses could cause premature failure.

These components, which are permanently lubricated at the factory, do not require lubrication. Damaged seals and boots should be replaced to prevent leakage or contamination of the grease.

Inspect the ddust covers and boots for proper sealing, leakage and damage. Replace them if defective.

Check all brake lines and hoses for damage, wear, cracks, corrosion, leaks, bends, twists.

Check all clamps for tightness.

Check that the lines are clear of sharp edges, moving parts and the exhaust system.

Remove the brake drum and check the thickness of the brake shoe lining for wear. Check the automatic brake adjusting system by hand to see that it operates smoothly and gears are in proper mesh to each other.

To assure smooth function, apply a very thin coat of grease to the friction surface of the adjuster and link shaft.

Inspect the wheel cylinder boots for fluid leaks. Visually check the boots for cuts, tears or heat cracks. (Asmall amount of fluid on the boot may not be a leak, but preservative fluid used at assembly.)

Check the level of the brake fluid in the reserve tank of the master cylinder.

The level should be between the "MAX" and "MIN" mark.

If the level is lower than the "MIN" mark, add fresh brake fluid up to the "MAX" mark.

Refer to BR Section for air-bleeding procedures.

Connect a vinyl tube to the bleeder screw of each wheel cylinder. Put the other end of the vinyl tube in a vessel for receiving the brake fluid.
