STATIONARY STEERING EFFORT CHECK37200170160

1. With the vehicle stopped on a flat, paved surface, turnthe steering wheel to the straight ahead position.

2. Start the engine and set it to 1,000±100 r/min.

CautionAfter checking the engine r/min must return to thestandard idling r/min.

3. Attach a spring balance to the outer circumference ofthe steering wheel and measure the steering forcerequired to turn the steering wheel from the straight aheadposition to the left and right (within a range of 1.5 turns).Also check to be sure that there is no significant fluctuationof the required steering force.

Standard value:Steering effort: 30N or lessFluctuation allowance: 5.9N or less

CHECKING STEERING WHEEL RETURN TOCENTRE 37200180156

To make this test, conduct a road test and check as follows.1. Make both gradual and sudden turns and check the

steering �feeling� to be sure that there is not differencein the steering force requiredand thewheel return betweenleft and right turns.

2. At a speed of 35 km/h, turn the steering wheel 90_ andrelease the steering wheel after 1 or 2 seconds. If thesteering wheel then returns 70_ or more, the return canbe judged to be satisfactory.

NOTEThere will be a momentary feeling or �heaviness� whenthe wheel is turned quickly, but this is not abnormal. (Thisis because the oil pump discharge amount is especiallyapt to be insufficient during idling.)

DRIVE BELT TENSION CHECK 37200190050

Refer to GROUP 11 - On-vehicle Service.

FLUID LEVEL CHECK 37200200043

1. Park the vehicle on a flat, level surface, start the engine,and then turn the steering wheel several times to raisethe temperature of the fluid to approximately 50 -60_C.

2. With the engine running, turn the wheel all the way tothe left and right several times.

3. Check the fluid in the oil reservoir for foaming or milkiness.Check the difference of the fluid level when the engineis stopped, and while it is running. If the change of thefluid level is 5 mm or more, air bleeding should be done.

FLUID REPLACEMENT 37200210046

1. Raise the front wheels on a jack, and then support themwith rigid racks.

2. Disconnect the return hose connection.3. Connect a vinyl hose to the return hose, and drain the

oil into a container.4. Disconnect the high tension cable.

CautionBe careful not to position the high-tension cable nearthe delivery pipe.

5. While operating the starting motor intermittently, turn thesteering wheel all the way to the left and right severaltimes to drain all of the fluid.

6. Connect the return hoses securely, and then secure itwith the clip.

7. Fill the oil reservoir with the specified fluid up to the lowerposition of the filter, and then bleed the air.

Specified fluid:Automatic transmission fluidDEXRON or DEXRON II

Fluid level change: Within 5 mm

While enginerunning

While enginestopped

Return hose Vinyl hose


BLEEDING 37200220155

1. Jack up the front wheels and support them by using arigid rack.

2. Manually turn the oil pump pulley a few times.3. Turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and to

the right five or six times.4. On vehicles with a petrol engine, disconnect the

high-tension cable. On vehicles with a diesel engine,remove the fuel cut valve connector attached to theinjection pump.

CautionBe careful not to position the high-tension cable nearthe delivery pipe.

5. While operating the starting motor intermittently, turn thesteering wheel all the way to the left and right five orsix times (for 15 to 20 seconds).

Caution1. During air bleeding, refill the fluid so that the level

never falls below the lower position of the filter.2. If air bleeding is done while engine is running,

the air will be broken up and absorbed into thefluid; be sure to do the bleeding only whilecranking.

6. On vehicles with a petrol engine, connect the high-tensioncable. On vehicles with a diesel engine, connect the fuelcut valve connector attached to the injection pump. Startthe engine (idling).

7. Turn the steering wheel to the left and right until thereare no air bubbles in the oil reservoir.

8. Confirm that the fluid is not milky, and that the level isup to the specified position on the level gauge.

9. Confirm that there is very little change in the fluid levelwhen the steering wheel is turned left and right.

10. Check whether or not the change in the fluid level iswithin 5 mm when the engine is stopped and when itis running.

11. If the change of the fluid level is 5 mm or more, theair has not been completely bled from the system, andthus must be bled completely.

Caution1. If the fluid level rises suddenly after the engine

is stopped, the air has not been completely bled.2. If air bleeding is not complete, there will be

abnormal noises from the pump and theflow-control valve, and this condition could causea lessening of the life of the pump, etc.

Fluid level change: Within 5 mm
