Parts Requiring Angular Tightening I Use an angle wrench for the final tightening of the following engine parts: (1) Cylinder head bolts (2) Connecting rod cap nuts I Do not use a torque value for final tightening. I The torque values for these parts are for a preliminary step. I Ensure thread and seat surfaces are clean and coated with engine oil. Liquid Gasket Application Procedure a. Use a scraper to remove all traces of old liquid gasket from mating surfaces and grooves. Also, completely clean any oil from these areas. b. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket to mating sur- faces. (Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.) I For oil pan, be sure liquid gasket diameter is 3.5 to 4.5 mm (0.138 to 0.177 in). I For areas except oil pan, be sure liquid gasket diameter is 2.0 to 3.0 mm (0.079 to 0.118 in). c. Apply liquid gasket around the inner side of bolt holes (unless otherwise specified). d. Assembly should be done within 5 minutes after coating. e. Wait at least 30 minutes before refilling engine oil and engine coolant. SEM164F AEM080 PRECAUTIONS AND PREPARATION KA24DE EM-2

Measurement of Compression Pressure 1. Warm up engine. 2. Turn ignition switch OFF. 3. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC section (“Fuel Pressure Release”, “BASIC SER- VICE PROCEDURE”). 4. Remove all spark plugs. I Clean area around the plug with compressed air before removing the spark plug. 5. Disconnect camshaft position sensor harness connector at the distributor. 6. Disconnect all fuel injector harness connectors. 7. Attach a compression tester to No. 1 cylinder. 8. Depress accelerator pedal fully to keep throttle valve wide open. 9. Crank engine and record highest gauge indication. 10. Repeat the measurement on each cylinder as shown above. I Always use a fully-charged battery to obtain specified engine speed. Compression pressure: kPa (bar, kg/cm 2 , psi)/rpm Standard 1,226 (12.26, 12.5, 178)/300 Minimum 1,030 (10.30, 10.5, 149)/300 Difference limit between cylinders 98 (0.98, 1.0, 14)/300 11. If compression in one or more cylinders is low: a. Pour a small amount of engine oil into cylinders through spark plug holes. b. Retest compression. I If adding oil improves cylinder compression, piston rings may be worn or damaged. If so, replace piston rings after checking piston. I If pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or seating improperly. Inspect and repair valve and valve seat. (Refer to SDS, EM-55 and EM-57.) If valve or valve seat is dam- aged excessively, replace it. I If compression stays low in two cylinders that are next to each other: a. The cylinder head gasket may be leaking, or b. Both cylinders may have valve component damage. Inspect and repair as necessary. 12. Reconnect fuel pump fuse, all fuel injector harness connectors, and the camshaft position sensor harness connector at the distributor, and then reinstall spark plugs.
