On-Vehicle Inspection

1. Rev up the engine several times. Check that the engine does not emit unusual noises.

   If unusual noises occur, warm up the engine and idle it for over 30 minutes. Then perform the inspection above again.

   If any defects or problems are found during the inspection above, perform a lash adjuster inspection.

1. Warm up and stop the engine.
   NOTE: A warmed up engine should have an engine coolant temperature of over 80°C (176°F) and an engine oil temperature of 60°C (140°F), and the engine rpm should be stabilized.
2. When using the intelligent tester:
   1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
   2. Start the engine and idle it.
   3. Push the intelligent tester main switch ON.
   4. Enter the following items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / PRIMARY / IGN ADVANCE.

      Standard ignition timing: 

      8 to 18° BTDC @ idle 

      HINT:

      Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual for further details.

3. When not using the intelligent tester:
   1. Remove the V-bank cover.

      NOTE:

      • Confirm the terminal numbers before connecting them. Connecting the wrong terminals can damage the engine.
      • When checking the ignition timing, the transmission should be in neutral.

   3. Push the intelligent tester main switch ON.
   4. Enter the following items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / PRIMARY / ENGINE SPD.

      Standard idle speed: 

      600 to 700 rpm 

      NOTE: When checking the idle speed, the transmission should be in neutral.

      HINT:

      Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual for further details.

      If the idle speed is not as specified, check the air intake system.

   5. Disconnect the intelligent tester from the DLC3.

3. When not using the intelligent tester:
   1. Using SST, connect the tachometer probe to terminal 9 (TAC) of the DLC3.

      SST 09843-18040 

      NOTE: Confirm the terminal numbers before connecting them. Connecting the wrong terminals can damage the engine.
   2. Race the engine at 2,500 rpm for approximately 90 seconds.
   3. Check the idle speed.

      Standard idle speed (Transmission neutral position): 

      600 to 700 rpm 

      If the speed is not as specified, check the air intake system.

   4. Disconnect the tachometer from the DLC3.

1. Warm up and stop the engine.
   NOTE: A warmed up engine should have an engine coolant temperature of over 80°C (176°F) and an engine oil temperature of 60°C (140°F), and the engine rpm should be stabilized.
2. Remove the cool air intake duct seal.

15. Inspect the compression pressure.
    1. Insert a compression gauge into the spark plug hole.
    2. Fully open the throttle.
    3. Depress and hold the brake pedal, and turn the engine switch on (READY). Then check the compression pressure.

       HINT:

       Always use a fully charged battery to obtain engine speed of 250 rpm or more.

       NOTE: The measurement must be done as quickly as possible.

       Standard compression pressure: 

       1.4 MPa (14 kgf/cm ²  , 199 psi) or more 

       Minimum pressure: 

       0.98 MPa (10.0 kgf/cm ²  , 142 psi) 

    4. Perform the inspection above for each cylinder.

       Difference between each cylinder: 

       0.1 MPa (1.0 kgf/cm ²  , 15 psi) or less 

       If the cylinder compression in one or more cylinders is low, pour a small amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the spark plug hole. Then check the compression pressure.

       HINT:

       • If adding oil helps boost the compression, it is likely that the piston rings and/or cylinder bore are worn or damaged.
       • If pressure stays low, a valve may be stuck or seated improperly, or there may be leakage in the gasket.
    5. Turn the engine switch off and the intelligent tester main switch OFF.
