    1. Check the electrode.

      A00DTLCE29

      1. Using a megohmmeter, measure the insulation resistance.

        Correct insulation resistance
        10 MΩ or higher

        If the result is not as specified, clean the plug and measure the resistance again.

        Tech Tips

        If a megohmmeter is not available, perform the following simple inspection instead.

    2. Alternative inspection method:

      1. Quickly accelerate the engine to 4000 rpm 5 times.

      2. Remove the spark plug.

      3. Visually check the spark plug.

        If the electrode is dry, the spark plug is functioning properly. If the electrode is damp, proceed to the next step.

    3. Check the spark plug for any damage on its thread and insulator.

      If there is damage, replace the spark plug.

      Recommended Spark Plug

      • The belt is cracked.

      • The belt is worn out to the extent that the cords are exposed.

      • The belt has chunks missing from the ribs.

    2. A00DSVTE01

      Check that the belt fits properly in the ribbed grooves.

      Tech Tips

      Check with your hand to confirm that the belt has not slipped out of the grooves on the bottom of the pulley. If it has slipped out, replace the fan and generator V belt. Install a new fan and generator V belt correctly.

      Text in Illustration
      *1 Compression Gauge

    5. While cranking the engine, measure the compression pressure.

      Standard compression pressure
      1300 kPa (13.3 kgf/cm2, 189 psi) or higher
      Minimum pressure
      1000 kPa (10 kgf/cm2, 145 psi)
      Standard difference between each cylinder
      100 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm2, 15 psi) or less

      Note

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

      • Check the other cylinder compression pressures in the same way.

      • This measurement must be completed as quickly as possible.

      If the cylinder compression is low, pour a small amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the spark plug hole and inspect again.

      Tech Tips

      • If adding oil increases the compression, the piston rings and/or cylinder bore may be worn or damaged.

      • If pressure stays low, a valve may be stuck or seated improperly, or there may be leakage in the gasket.

  10. INSPECT CO

    Tech Tips

    This check is used only to determine whether or not the idle CO complies with regulations.

    1. Initial condition:

      1. Engine at normal operating temperature

      2. Air cleaner installed

      3. All pipes and hoses of the air induction system connected

      4. All accessories switched off

      5. All vacuum lines properly connected

      6. SFI system wiring connectors fully seated

      7. Ignition timing set correctly

      8. Shift lever in N

      9. Tachometer and CO meter calibrated with engine idling

        Note

        If a CO meter is not available, do not attempt to adjust the idle mixture. Always use a CO meter when adjusting the idle mixture. It is unnecessary to use the idle mixture screw for adjustments if the vehicle is in good condition.

    2. Warm up the engine by driving at a constant speed (approximately 50 km/h (31 mph)). Release the accelerator pedal after the engine coolant temperature becomes stable (85 to 90°C (185 to 194°F)) and idle the engine for 5 minutes.

    3. Insert a tester probe at least 40 cm (1.31 ft) into the tailpipe.

    4. Wait at least 1 minute before measurement to allow the concentration to stabilize. Complete the measurement within 3 minutes.

      Idle CO concentration
      1.0 to 2.0%

    5. If the CO concentration does not conform to regulations, adjust it by turning the idle mixture adjusting screw in the variable resistor with SST.

      A00DS5ZE04
      SST
      09243-00020

    6. The idle mixture adjusting screw can be adjusted within a 180° range.

      A00DPUWE01

      Tech Tips

      • If the CO concentration is within the specification, this adjustment is complete.

      • If the CO concentration cannot be corrected by idle mixture adjustment, see the table below for other possible causes.

    7. Remove SST.

      CO Problems Causes
      High Rough idle (black smoke from exhaust)

      1. Clogged air filter

      2. Plugged ventilation valve

      3. Faulty SFI system:

        • Faulty fuel pressure regulator

        • Defective Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor

        • Faulty ECM

        • Faulty injectors

        • Faulty throttle body assembly

        • Faulty MAF meter
