ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
COMPRESSION CHECK
Check compression pressure on all four cylinders as follows:
1) Warm up engine.
2) Stop engine after warming up.
NOTE:
After warming up engine, place transmission gear shift le-
ver in “Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P” range for A/T
model), and set parking brake and block drive wheels.
3) Remove ignition coil assemblies (1) and all spark plugs (2) refer-
ring to Section 6F.
WARNING:
Failure in disconnecting couplers from ignition coil as-
semblies can cause spark to occur in engine room pos:
bly resulting in a dangerous explosion.
4) Disconnect fuel injector wire harness at couplers (2)
5) Install special tools (Compression gauge) into spark plug hole.
Special Tool
(A): 09915-64510-001
(B): 09915-64510-002
(C): 09915-64530
(0): 09915-67010,
6) Disengage clutch (to lighten starting load on engine) for M/T
model, and depress accelerator pedal all the way to make
throttle valve full-open,
7) Crank engine with fully charged battery, and read the highest
pressure on compression gauge.
‘Compression pressure
71400 KPa
Standard (14.0 kg/cm2, 199.0 psi)
Limit 1100 kPa
(11.0 kg/em2, 156.4 psi)
Max. difference between any 100 KPa
two cylinders (1.0 kg/em?, 14.2 ps)
8) Carry out steps 5) through 7) on each cylinder to obtain four
readings
9) After checking, connect couplers to fuel injectors securely and
install spark plugs and ignition coil assemblies.
