1) Adjust the tire pressure to the
specifications.
2) Put vehicle and screen on a level
surface. Position screen at a distance
of7.6 m (24.9 ft) from headlights.
3) Have vehicle in its unladen condition. (with maintenance tools, a spare
tire & wheel and full fuel tank)
4) Check the aim of headlight. If
necessary, turn adjusting screws to
adjust the beam axis vertically and
hOrizontally in accordance with specifications.

The operation of the cooling system is
as follows:
I) Cooling with thermostat closed
When the coolant temperature is under
the specified degrees, coolant flows
only through the by-pass passage. This
limited coolant circulation reduces
cooling action, thus shortening engine
warm-up time.
By-pass passage:
a. Intake manifold -+ Carburetor -+
Thermo valve -+ Water by-pass base
and pipe -+ Water pump
When the environmental temperature around thermo valve exceeds
the specified degrees, the coolant
passage from carburetor to water
by-pass pipe is shut off by means of
thermo valve so that the fuel in
carburetor is not heated.

2) Cooling with thermostat open
When the coolant temperature exceeds
the specified degrees, thermostat
begins to open and coolant flows
through radiator and by-pass passage,
increasing the cooling function.
3) Cooling with electric fan in operation
When the coolant temperature exceeds
the specified degrees, the thermoswitch turns on to operate the electric
fan.

Fig. 3·5 Hydraulic valve lifter

The hydraulic valve lifter always
maintains the valve clearance at zero
by means of engine oil pressure.
The hydraulic valve lifter consists
basically of a push rod seat, plunger,
check ball and valve body.
Plunger spring always pushes out
plunger. Therefore, plunger moves out·
ward when the clearance to produced
in the valve mechanism. At this time,
the check ball is separated from the
plunger and opens the passage to the
pressure chamber. This causes engine
oil to flow into the pressure chamber.
As this happens, the plunger is pushed
up so that the valve clearance is zero.
When the valve lifter is pushed by the
cam lobe, the check ball comes into
contact with the plunger.

AS·662

Fig. 3-6 Operation of the hydraulic valve lifter

In this condition, engine oil pressure
in the pressure chamber increases
rapidly and this moves the intake or
exhaust valve through push rod and
valve rocker arm.

NOTE:
a. Immediately after the engine sterts,
the valve lifter may sometimes
meke clicking noises within 10
seconds. This is not an indication of
abnormality. It occurs bec:au_ the
viscosity of engine 01 increases due
to low ambient temperature and
therefore the valve lifter does not
respond accordingly.

b. The valve lifter also clicks continuo
ally for a long time if air enters the
pressure chamber of the valve lifter
(although this occurs very _Idom).
When this happens, check the
engine oil level and add engine oil if
the level is at the lower level or
below on the gauge. Then, maintein
the engine at a speed of 1,500 to
2,000 rpm and allow it to idle for
10 to 20 minutes. The air is then
expelled from the pressure chamber
and the clicking ceases. (Check the
valve lifter according to "3·1, 8
Valve Lifter", if the clicking does
notc....)
This happens also after removing/
instilling valve rocker ASSY. cylin.
der head and/or entire engine.

4. Hot Air Control
System
Inspect the hot air control system
periodically as follows.
In warm weather, it is difficult to
find out malfunction of the hot air
control system. In cold weather, however, malfunction of the air control
valve due to disconnection or deterioration of the vacuum hose between the
intake manifold and vacuum motor
and insufficient durability of the air

control valve will cause insufficient
automatic control operation for intake
air, and result in engine disorders:
I) Stall or hesitation of engine operation,
2) Increase in fuel consumption, and
3) Lack of power.
These phenomena reveal malfunction of hot air control system. If these
phenomena should occur, check the
hot air control system for the following items before carrying out inspection of the carburetor.

1) Vacuum Hoses
Check each hose for cracks and
proper connections.

2) Vacuum Motor
1) With the engine stopped, place a
mirror at the end of the air cleaner
inlet pipe as shown in the figure, and
check to see if the air control valve is

In this condition. check that the air
control valve maintains the condition
described in 2) for more than 30
seconds. and that the hot air inlet is
open. If the diaphragm spring actuates
the air control valve by its spring force
to open the under hood air inlet
within 30 seconds. replace the vacuum
motor as an assembly since this may
have resulted from air leak at the
vacuum motor diaphragm.

3) Temperature Sensor
Check temperature sensor for proper function by proceeding as follows.
Be sure to keep the engine cold before
starting this test.
1) With the engine stopped. check
the position of the air control valve. In
this case, underhood air inlet should
be open. Use a mirror for inspection as

closed. and the hot air inlet is open.

3) Check that the air control valve
gradually moves to open the under
hood air inlet as the engine warms up.

spend more time for engine warming
up operation to facilitate smooth operation of the air control valve.

c. Apply a thin coat of Prussian blue
or red lead to the contacting surface of valve to see the contact·
ing condition of valve and valve
seat.
d. Rotate valve with light pressure.
If the blue or red lead is transferred
to the center of the valve seat surface, the contact is satisfactory.
e. In case of improper contact, apply
a small amount of grinding com·
pound (about #400) on the valve
surface and lap the valve and seat
surface so that they obtain proper
fit.

The correction procedure is as follows:
a. Precautions
(I) When valve seat correction is
required, check intake and exhaust
valve stems and valve guides for
wear, and the springs for squareness, tension, etc. If defective,
replace them before proceeding the
valve seat correction work.
(2) When reconditioning valve and
valve seat surfaces, remove intake
valve oil seals. Install new oil seals
with oil after completing the work.
b. Reface valve seat with valve seat
cutters or grinders to the dimen·
sions shown in the above figure.

a. Place cylinder head on Cylinder
Head Table (399765101) with the
combustion chamber upward so
that valve guides enter the holes
in Cy linder Head Table.
b. Insert Valve Guide Remover
(899764104) into valve guide and
press it down to remove valve
guide.

NOTE:
The above is important because the
valve and seat must have a gastight fit.
f. Clean valves and valve seats to
remove chips.
4) Inspect exhaust pipe stud bolts
installed on the cylinder head, and
replace if defective.

3. Valve Guide

Fig. 3-80 Refacing valve seat with

Check the clearance between valve
guide and stem. The clearance can be
checked by measuring the outside
diameter of valve st~m and the inside
diameter of valve guide wi th outside
and inside micrometers respectively.
If the clearance between valve
guide and stem exceeds the specification, replace guide as follows:

NOTE:
Refacing of the valve seat should be
closely coordinated with the refacing
of the valve face, so that the finished
seat and valve face will be concentric
and specified interference angle will be
maintained.

3. Description

I) Component layout

1) Three-way Catalyst Attended
with ECC System

I) California models and non-4WD
of non-California models
carburetor)
2

The basic material of three-way
catalyst is platinum (Pt) and rhodium
tRh), and a thin film of their mixture
is applied onto honeycomb or porous
ceramics of an oval shape (carrier). To
avoid damaging the catalyst, only unleaded gasoline should be used.
The catalyst is used to reduce HC, CO
and NOx in exhaust gases, and permits
simultaneous oxidation and reduction.
To obtain an excellent purification
efficiency on all components HC, CO
and NOx, a balance should be kept
among the concentrations of the components. These concentrations vary
with the air-fuel ratio.
The air-fuel ratio needs to be controlled to a value within the very
narrow range covering around the
theoretical (stoichiometric) air-fuel
ratio to purify the components efficiently.
Electronically Controlled Carburetor
(ECC) system is employed with threeway catalyst for this purpose. ECC
system is mainly made up of following
component parts.
a. Oxygen (0 1 ) sensor
b. Electronic control module (ECM)
c. Duty solenoid
d. Carburetor
They compose a feedback system to
control the air-fuel ratio during operation by supplying a measured air into
air bleeders of the carburetor.
For high altitude configuration, the
Hitachi carburetor is also provided
with a circuit to supply air to the
secondary main air bleed.
To avoid application of feedback
during certain driving conditions, vacuum switches, a thermosensor and an
engine speed sensing circuit are also
provided in this system.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
2) Component parts of ECC system

1) Oxygen (0,) sensor
0, sensor is a kind of concentration
cell that generates electromotive force
according to the ratio of 0, concentration in air to that in exhaust gases, and
has a characteristic that the electromotive force is changed drastically
with respect to the stoichiometric airfuel ratio. The force is larger on the
rich side (smaller air-fuel ratio) and
smaller on the lean side (larger air-fuel
ratio) of the mixture.
0, sensor is installed on exhaust
manifold.

electromotive force of 0, sensor is
higher than the specified level. As the
result, ECM issues signals to duty
solenoid valves to let much air into
carburetor.
On the other hand, the air-fuel ratio is
judged to be lean mixture when the
electromotive force is lower. ECM
issues signals to duty solenoid valves
to let a little air into carburetor so that
the air-fuel ratio will be changed toward rich mixture. According to these
feedback operations, the air-fuel ratio
maintains at around the stoichiometric
value.

The ON-duty duration varies at a fixed
acceleration, with the Rich-Lean
mixture as measured by the O2 sensor.
In steady-state operation [where the
vacuum switch (II) is on], the acceleration rate beyond a certain engine
speed is changed in steps to obtain
greater acceleration at higher engine
rpm. This allows the valve to sensitive·
ly respond to the Rich-Lean mixture
as measured by the O2 sensor.

2) Electronic control module (ECM)
According to the signal from 0, sensor,
ECM judges whether the exhaust gas
at the manifold is made from rich or
lean mixture against the stoichiometric,
and issues signals to duty solenoid
valves. The current air-fuel ratio is
judged to be rich mixture when the

3) Duty solenoid valve
On Hitachi carburetor, two duty
solenoid valves are installed on the
intake manifold, while on CoW carburetor, one duty solenoid valve is
unified in the carburetor as shown in
the figure.
Duty solenoid valve has a construction
as shown in the illustration.
The light-weight valve (A) repeats
opening!closing at a short cycle according to the signal output from ECM.
The average flow rate of air passing
through this valve to carburetor
changes depending upon the period of
time during which the valve is opened,
thereby the air-fuel ratio is varied.
The status that a voltage is applied to
solenoid, that is, the valve is lifted is
called "ON-duty", and duty ratio is
given by the follOWing equation.

3) Exhaust Gas Recirculation
(EGR) System
Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system is aiming at reduction of NOx by
reducing the top combustion tempera·
ture in cylinders through recirculating
a part of exhaust gas into cylinders.
The EGR valve opens in response to
the engine driving conditions and a
part of exhaust gas flows into cylinders
through the intake manifold.
The vacuum signal to control the EGR
valve is picked up from the port near
the slightly up stream portion of
throttle valve after being modulated
with the atmospheric pressure through
the orifice (EGR leak orifice equipped
models). At the specific wall tempera·
ture of intake manifold or below, the
vacuum signal is modulated with the
atmospheric pressure through the
thermo vacuum valve I.
Additionally for non4WD of non·
California models, the vacuum signal is
modulated with the atmospheric pressure through solenoid valve II at the
specified driving condition.

4) Air Injection (AI) System
The AI system is a major emission
control system whose purpose is to
promote oxidation of hydrocarbons
(HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) while
the engine is cold.
1) California models
1) Component parts
• Air suction valve I (ASV) with cutoff valve
• Silencer
• Air suction pipe
• Air introduction hoses
• Air cleaner
• Thermosensor
• Solenoid valve I
• Check valve II
• ECM
Secondary air is supplied to the
exhaust port on the #2-#4 cylinders
side by ASV.
2) Operational principle
The exhaust gas pulsation is transmitted to the air suction valve (a kind
of check valve having. reed valves)
through the air suction pipe.
When the negative pressure of pulsation is transferred to the ASV, the
reeds of air suction valve are opened

:

and simultaneously fresh air from the
air cleaner is sucked by itself into the
exhaust passage.
When, on the other hand, the positive
pressure reaches the ASV, the reeds
are closed to prevent the adverse flow
of exhaust gas.
The AI system is controlled both by
coolant temperature sensed by the
thermosensor and time governed by
the ECM.
When the coolant temperature is below
35"C (95°F), the ECM gives a command to open the intake manifold
vacuum passage of the solenoid valve I
for the period of 123 seconds, whereby the cutoff valve being opened by
the diaphragm vacuum actuator to
operate the ASV.
Under such driving condition as wideopen-throttle acceleration, the check
valve closes the vacuum circuit to
confine the vacuum so as to hold the
cutoff valve open for that period.
After the period, the ECM gives a
command to close the vacuum passage
of the solenoid valve and open the
atmospheric pressure passage, then the
vacuum in the vacuum chamber of the
cutoff valve goes out through the solenoid valve I, whereby the cutoff valve
being closed to deactivate the ASV.

When the negative pressure of pulsation is transfered to the ASV, the

and simultaneously fresh air from the
air cleaner is sucked by itself into the
exhaust passage.
When, on the other hand, the positive
pressure reaches the ASV, the reeds

are closed to prevent the adverse flow
of exhaust gas.
An ASV without cutoff valve always
operates regardless of coolant temperature and ECM signal. On the other
hand, two ASVs with cutoff valves are
controlled both by coolant temperature sensed by the thennosensor and
time governed by the ECM.
When the coolant temperature is below
35°C (95°F), the ECM gives a command to open the intake manifold
vacuum passage of the solenoid valve I
for the period of 123 seconds, whereby the two cutoff valves being opened
by the diaphragm vacuum actuator to
operate the two ASV s.
Under such driving condition as wideopen-throttle acceleration, the check
valve closes the vacuum circuit to
confine the vacuum so as to hold the
cutoff valve open for that period.
After the period, the ECM gives a
command to close the vacuum passage
of the solenoid valve and open the
atmospheric pressure passage, then the
vacuum in the vacuum chambers of
the cutoff valves goes out through the
solenoid valve I, whereby the two
cutoff valves being closed to deactivate
the two ASV s.

5) Ignition Control System
Ignition control system is aimed to
reduce HC, CO and NOx emission
through the whole operating conditions. Actual ignition timing is controlled by the combination of a centrifugal advancer and a vacuum conSecondary air inlet

troller (advancer) of distributor.
Operational and constitutional description of the centrifugal advancer is
performed in "Chapter 15; Distributor", so here is described how to controll the vacuum signal for the vacuum
controller (advancer).

Between 15 to 35°C (59 to 95°F) of the intake manifold wall
temperature, the vacuum passage is opened to atmospheric
pressure through the thermo vacuum valve I.
At temperature other than the above-mentioned, the vacuum
passage is connected to below-throttle ported vacuum through
the check valve when the engine is idling, and the vacuum
passage is connected to above-throttle ported vacuum due to
the check valve being closed when the engine is running at
speed above idling.

1800 cc

Between 15 to 35°C (59 to 95°F) of the intake manifold wall

6) Anti-afterburning System
During rapid deceleration the air-fuel
mixture becomes heavily concentrated
temporarily, as the vacuum pressure in
the intake manifold increases, causing
fuel residue on the inside wall of the
manifold to vaporize and to enter the
combustion chamber.
The anti-afterburning system prevents
this heavy concentration from occurring by introducing air into the intake
manifold at this time. This prevents
afterburning in the exhaust system.
During constant-speed running, the
valve is closed because chambers ®
and @ are at the same pressure. In
deceleration (when the throttle valve is
closed), the vacuum pressure in the
intake manifold increases and the
pressure in chamber @ decreases.
The diaphragm is forced down to open
the valve. This permits outer air to be
drawn into the intake manifold
through the filter.
After that, the pressure in chamber ®
gradually becomes equal to that of
chamber @ as the air flows through
the orifice. The diaphragm is then
pushed up by the spring, which in turn
closes the valve to stop the suction of
air.

7) Shift-up Control System
Shift-up control system is provided
on automatic transmission vehicle only
and is used to reduce CO emission due
to rapid warm-up.
If the engine is started while the
coolant is in the preset temperature
range, ECM keeps the automatic transmission in a kick-down state for a
certain duration of time.

8) High-altitude Kit
When principally operating the vehicle
at altitudes above 1,200 m (4,000 ft)
(areas prescribed in the paragraph (a)
(5) of section 86.082-30 of EPA regulation), the emission control system
requires minor modification to meet
the emission standards at high-altitude.
Regarding the modification, please
refer to the modification instruction
sheet enclosed in the high altitude kit.

When a vehicle modified to highaltitude specifications is principally
used at altitudes below 1,200 m
(4,000 ft) (other than areas prescribed
in the paragraph (a) (5) of section
86.082-30 of EPA regulation), the
emission control system must be
remodified to the original specifications.
Regarding the remodification, please
restore the relative parts to their
original specifications.

4. Inspection
Check the ECC system as a whole
system, and its description is performed in the next section "5.
Troubleshooting for ECC system".
Therefore, here is described how to
inspect component parts of the other
systems.

A3-257

Fig. 5-58

2. Description
The evaporative emission control
system is employed to prevent evaporative fuel from being discharged into
ambient ~tmosphere. This system includes a canister, a two-way valve, a
fuel separator, their connecting lines
etc.

Gasoline vapor evaporated from the
fuel in the fuel tank is introduced into
the canister located in the engine compartment through the tank fuel line,
and is absorbed on activated carbon in
it. A two-way valve and a vapor
separator are also incorporated on the
tank vapor line.

The carburetor vapor line, connecting
between the carburetor float chamber
and the canister, is employed in addition to the tank vapor line. Gasoline
vapor evaporated from the float
chamber is inducted into the canister
through solenoid valve (II) at all
positions except "ON" and "START"
positions of ignition-starter switch.
I) Canister
The purge control valve on the canister
is controlled by carburetor vacuum.
When the purge control valve is
opened, the adsorbed vapor is introduced from the canister into the intake
manifold.
When the engine is not running, the
purge control valve is closed by the
return spring.
Gasoline vapor does not purge to
intake manifold within the specified
temperature [IS to 35°C (59 to 95°F)]
because the carburetor vacuum is
leaked.
2) Two-way valve
The two-way valve is located in the
fuel vapor line and functions to control the pressure in the fuel tank.
When the fuel tank pressure is positive
above a certain point, the valve A is
open to permit the fuel vapor to the
canister, and when the fuel tank pressure is negative below a certain point,
the valve B is open to introduce fresh
air into the fuel tank.

3) Fuel separator
The vapor separator is to prevent
liqUid fuel from flowing into the
canister in case of abrupt cornering,
etc.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
All models except Hatchback

4) Fuel filler cap with vacuum relief
valve
The relief valve is adopted to prevent
the development of vacuum in the fuel
tank which may occur in case of
trouble in the fuel vapor line.
In normal condition, the filler pipe is
sealed at @ and at the packing
pressed against the filler pipe end. As
vacuum develops in the fuel tank,
atmospheric pressure forces the spring
down to open the valve; consequently
air is led into the fuel tank controlling
the inside pressure.

3) Change of line pressure with intake manifold vacuum (N, D ranges)

NOTE:

a. Line pressures in each of 0, 2 and
R ranges will change in steps at
certain points (where pressure
modifier valve functions) and these
points are called "Cut-down point".
"Before cut-down" stated in the
above table implies slow driving
condition [less than 15.3 km/h
(9.5 MPH)] and "after cut-down"
implies the vehicle speed of more
than 35.4 km/h (22.0 MPH).
b. The line pressure during idling of
the engine corresponds to the oil
pressure before cut-down operation
with the minimum throttle.

Intake manifold vacuum:
-kPa (-mmHg, -inHg)

1.

Construction

1) Overall Construction
The 4WD automatic transmission is
basically composed of the conventional SUBARU 1800 automatic transmission, the transfer gear and rear
wheel hydraulic driving clutch attached to the rear end of the transmission,
and the hypoid pinion and transfer
gear are connected by the transfer
drive shaft. The transmission route
of power is unchanged from that of
the SUBARU 1800 4WD model (with
manual transmission).

case and transmission case have been
changed thoroughly, and an oil seal
holder has been newly introduced in
the reduction drive gear portion. The
hydraulic clutch, planetary gear, control valve and other elementary components of the automatic transmission
section are unchanged from those of
the current automatic transmission.

3) Rear Drive Portion
1) Transfer
The transfer consists of a hydraulic
multi-disc clutch, transfer clutch valve
and solenoid, and these units are
housed in the extension case together
with the transfer gear.

2) Rear differential
The rear differential is unchanged
from the SUBARU 1800 4WD (manual type). The difference in gear ratio
with the front side differential is
adjusted by the transfer gear (gear
ratio 37/39 = 0.948) so that the front

with this change, the oil supply circuit
to the torque converter and the lubricating circuit to the clutch and planetary gear portions have been partially
modified.

4) Transfer valve
The transfer valve is an of-off valve
which opens and clbses the line pressure circuit to the transfer clutch, and
this valve is operated by the solenoid.
In the FWD mode, the solenoid push
rod and valve are set at the right side
by the spring positioned on the left
side, and the line pressure to the
clutch is disconnected.
If the solenoid is energized by depressing of the 4WD selector switch, the
push rod is activated and the valve is
pressed to the left against the pressure
of the spring. As the valve is moved,

the transfer clutch circuit opens while
the drain circuit closes, and the line

If the pushbutton on the selector lever
is set to the 4WD position from the
FWD position, the transfer valve opens
the circuit to the transfer clutch as the
solenoid is activated, and, at the same
time, the green 4WD pilot lamp illuminates on the meter panel.

the rear wheels.
These characteristics have been established as being necessary to transmit
the power from the engine to the rear
wheels. If an excessive brake torque is
created on the front and rear wheels in
a tight cornering operation, the transfer clutch acts as a torque limitter
(that is, the clutch slips), and weakens
the braking torque, and also protects
the driving members. As shown in the
characteristic curve in the figure, the
torque limiting function is more effective when the line pressure is lower
(that is, when the throttle opening is
smaller).

3. Precautions for 4WD
automatic transmission
1) Be sure to use recommended
au tomatic transmission fluid (A TF).
The use of any other fluid may cause
chattering of the transfer clutch.
2) If the driving mode is changed
from 4WD to FWD while making a
turn, a light shock may be felt in the
vehicle body. This shock is caused by
the releasing of the tight corner
braking feature, and is a normal
phenomenon.
A similar shock may also be felt when
changing from 4WD to FWD after a
sudden stop.
3) If the pilot lamp remains off even
after operating the 4WD selector
switch, the 4WD operating electrical
circuit may be faulty; the circuit must
be checked and repaired.

4) If the front wheels must be engaged with the front end of the vehicle
jacked up, or on a roller, be sure to set
the 4WD selector switch to the FWD
position, or disconnect the transfer
solenoid harness connector in the
engine compartment.
Remember, if the switch is kept in
the 4WD position, the vehicle may be
moved as the engine is started.
When disconnecting the harness in the
engine compartment, use extreme care
not to confuse the connectors.
5) The use of different sized tires
will cause a shock when releasing the
4WD mode even when driving straight
ahead, or will result in deteriorated
fuel consumption. Be sure to use tires
of the same size on all of four wheels.
The tire inflation pressure must be set
to the specifications.
6) When attempting to get out of a
immobile state by switchback opera-

tion (switchover between "D" and
"R"), avoid racing the engine with
the lever set in the N position.
7) If the engine or transmission has
failed, the vehicle must be towed with
the front wheels lifted up. In such an
event, the 4WD selector switch must
be set in the FWD position.

2 LOCK UP TORQUE
CONVERTER
1. Construction
An installation drawing in which the
centrifugal lock up clutch is built into
the torque converter and a view of the
shoe section as seen from the front of
the engine are shown below.
This lock up clutch transmits torque
by the centrifugal force acting on the
shoes that slide along the inner circumference of the turbine cover. It has a
very simple construction, consisting of
five components: shoes and weights
with paper facings pasted on their
outer surfaces, two leaf springs (main
and retractor springs) and pins. Eight
shoes are used.

Fig. 7·17

• Operation of each component
Shoe ... The shoe rotates at the same
speed as the torque converter turbine,
and slides along the inner circumference of the turbine cover. The shoe
sometimes becomes completely engaged with the turbine cover, however,
it usually slides in a half-clutch condition. The engine torque is transmitted
from the turbine cover through the
shoe to the reaction plate and then to
the output shaft. Paper is used for the
facing.
Weight ... Using the centrifugal force
produced by the rotation of the
weight, the clutch transmits torque.
The weight's primary purpose is to
increase the transfer torque capacity
in the medium- and low-speed ranges.
Main spring '" The centrifugal force
acting on the weight is transmitted to
the shoe through the main spring. In
the medium- and low-speed ranges, the
load of the spring increases in proportion to the centrifugal force of the
weight, so that torque capacity also
increases. In the medium- and highspeed ranges, however, the spring load
becomes constant regardless of the
centrifugal force of the weight, functioning as a torque limiter.
Retractor spring '" This spring always
functions to pull the shoe inward,
which, in the low-speed range where
the centrifugal force is small, prevents
the shoe from touching the drum.
Pin ... The pin fixes the shoe in place
so that it will not come off the
reaction plate, and also serves as the
weight stopper.

2. Operation
1) First range (low-speed, nonoperating range)
Because the return force of the retractor spring is greater than the
centrifugal force acting on the shoe
and weight, the shoe is drawn inward
and kept away from the drum. Thus,
torque is not transmitted through the
shoe.
As the revolution increases and when
the centrifugal force becomes greater
than the return force of the spring, the
shoe contacts the drum and begins to
transfer torque (lower figure).

greater part of it pushes the shoe
through the main spring, working as
the power that transmits torque.
On the other hand, the centrifugal
force acting on the shoe itself becomes
the force that pushes the drum regardless of the movements of the weight.
Therefore, the press of the shoe necessary to transmit torque in this range
becomes: Shoe's centrifugal force +
(Weight's centrifugal force - Retractor
spring's return force).
When the speed of rotation goes still
higher, the centrifugal force of the
weight increases further, and the main
spring deflects more, both ends of the
weight butt against the pins (through
the retractor spring), so that the
weight will not move toward the
circumference.

2) Second range (medium- and lowspeed range, centrifugal clutch range)
The centrifugal force of the weight
deflects the main spring, and the
weight floats up off the concavity at
each end of the shoe (portion @ in

Fig. 7-19).
Although a portion of the weight's
centrifugal force is transmitted from
the retractor spring to the pin, the

3) Third range (medium- and highspeed ranges, torque limiter range)
Because the speed of rotation is high,
the weight is stopped, completely
pressed against the pins at both ends.
The centrifugal force acting on the
weight at this time is carried directly
from the weight to the pins and then
to the reaction plate, and therefore it
is not transmitted to the shoe. Accordingly, in this range the transfer torque
of the clutch is the frictional force
produced by the centrifugal force of

the shoe. The increasing rate of torque
due to an increase in the rotational
speed is considerably lower than in the
second range; consequently, this is
what is called a torque limiter condition.
Further, the centrifugal force of the
main spring is balanced and offset by
the force with which the spring is
pushed, and there is no change in the
force pushing the shoe.

4) Fourth range (high-speed range)
The main spring deflects outward due
to its own centrifugal force, and
separates from the weight. Thus, the
upward pressing load with which the
weight pushes the spring dies away.
In the third range the centrifugal force
of the main spring is offset by the
pressing load of the weight. In the
fourth range, however, because the
centrifugal force of the main spring is
carried to the shoe as it is, the transfer
torque of the clutch greatly increases
as does the torque capacity somewhat
increases accordingly.

4. Troubleshooting
and On-car Service
1 TROUBLESHOOTING
Many troubles of the automatic transmission may be corrected by performing the basic inspection and adjustment procedures. Before starting the
regular troubleshooting operation,
carry out the following preliminary
inspection.

1. Necessary Test Gauges
1) Tachometer (It is desirable to be
able to read to 50 rpm.)
2) Vacuum gauge (It is used for
measuring intake manifold vacuum.)
3) Oil pressure gauge [0 to 2,452 kPa
(0 to 25 kg/cm 2 , 0 to 356 psi) range].
Set above gauges so that the driver can
see them.

2. Preliminary Inspection
1) Confirm that the engine tune-up
has been completed. Check the idling
speed and idling boost.
If engine is out of adjustment, check
also the stall speed.
2) Check that the linkage between
the accelerator pedal and the carburetor is functioning properly.
(Check the full-opened and fully
closed positions.)
3) Ensure that the vacuum pipe is
not disconnected.
4) See that no fluid is leaking from
the ATF cooler circulation pipe.
5) Check that the kickdown switch
functions at the normal pedal position.
6) Check that the electrical circuits
of the kickdown solenoid, transfer
solenoid and inhibitor switch are functioning properly.

7) Confirm that the manual linkage
adjustment has been completed.
8) See that no fluid is leaking out of
the transmission.
9) See that the ATF level and differential oil level are normal.
After completing the above listed
operations, perform checks on the
items listed in 4. according to the
Troubleshooting chart.

NOTE:
Chattering of transfer clutch
• If considerable chattering is felt in
the transfer clutch when making a
turn in 4WD mode, replace two to
three liters of transmission oil with
the recommended ATF.

1. Method of Inspection and
Adjustment
1) Fluid Level Check and Fluid
Replacement
1)

Automatic transmission fluid
(ATF)

1) Checking fluid level
a. Raise the ATF temperature to 60
to 80°C (140 to 176°F). [This
temperature may be attained by

7-30

r, g

running a distance of 5 to 10 km
(3 to 6 miles)].

NOTE:

The level of ATF varies with fluid
temperature. Pay attention to the
fluid temperature when checking oil
level. A change in the ATF level by
oil temperature is shown in the following figure.
b. Ensure the vehicle is level and set
the selector lever in "P" range.
Measure fluid level with the engine
idling.

NOTE:

After running, idle the engine for one
or two minutes before measurement
c. If the fluid level is below the lower
limit mark, add the recommended
ATF until the fluid level is found
within the specified range (within
upper and lower limit marks). When
the transmission is hot, the level
should be above the center of upper
and lower marks, and when it is

-,
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND DIFFERENTIAL
cold, the level should be found
below the center of these two
marks.

NOTE:

a. Use care not to exceed the upper
limit level shown in item 2) below.
b. Check the ATF level when deliver·
ing a car to a customer.
2) ATF level
a. ATF level varies with temperature
as shown in figure. Remember that
the addition of fluid to the upper
limit mark when the transmission is

Check fluid level after a warm-up
run of approx. 10 minutes. During
this warm·up period, the automatic
transmission functions can also be
checked.
3) Inspection and replacement intervals

4) Replacement of ATF
a. After allowing the engine to cool
for 3 to 4 hours, remove the fluid
pan drain plug, and drain oil
thoroughly.

NOTE:

a. The fluid will be discharged to the
front as the drain plug is removed.
To avoid the stream of fluid, the
worker should stand under the oil
pan toward the front of the car
performing this procedure.
b. The amount of fluid that can be
drained is approx. 4Q (4.2 US qt,
3.5 Imp qt) of the total capacity of
6.0 to 6.4 Q (6.3 to 6.8 US qt, 5.3
to 5.6 Imp qt) for 4WD and 5.6 to
6.0 Q (5.9 to 6.3 US qt, 4.9 to 5.3
Imp qt) for non-4WD. Some fluid
will remain in the torque converter,
oil passage, or in the valve body.
b. Tighten the drain plug. [Tightening
torque: 25 N'm (2.5 kg·m, 18 ftlb )].

NOTE:

Inspection

Replacement

At delivery, after initial
1,600 km (l,000 miles)
and every 24,000 km
(lS,OOO miles) or 15
months
Every 48,000 km
(30,000 miles) or 30
months

Be sure to replace the gasket with a
new one.
c. Pour 4Q (4.2 US qt, 3.5 Imp qt) of
recommend~d ATF into the case
through the oil supply pipe.
d. Run the vehicle until the fluid
temperature rises to 60 to 80°C
(140 to 176°F), and then add fluid

7-31

until the oil level can be found
within the specified range.

NOTE:

a. If the drained fluid is black or
thick, it indicates that some com·
ponents in the transmission are
faulty. Disassemble and check the
transmission.
b. Be sure to use recommended ATF
when changing the transmission
fluid.
2) Differential gear oil
• Checking oil level
1) Ensure the vehicle is level.

NOTE:

Do not check the oil level nor add oil
to the case with the front end of the
vehicle jacked up; this will result in an
incorrect reading of the oil level.
2) Check whether the oil level is
between the upper and lower marks.
If it is below the lower limit mark, add
oil until the level reaches the upper
mark. The difference in level between
upper and lower marks corresponds
to 0.4Q (0.8 US pt, 0.7 Imp pt).

2) Oil Leakage Check Points
It is difficult to accurately determine

the precise position of a oil leak, since
the surrounding area also becomes wet
with oil. The places where oil seals and
gaskets are used are as follows:
1) Jointing portion of the case

• Transmission case and final reduction case jointing portion
• Final reduction case and converter
housing jointing portion
• Transmission case and transmission.
cover (or intermediate case)
jointing portion
• Intermediate case and extension
case jointing portion
2)

Converter housing

• Engine crankshaft oil seal
• Torque converter impeller sleeve oil
seal
• ATF pipe connector
3)

Final reduction case

• Final reduction case and governor
cover
• Axle shaft oil seal
• O-ring on the outside diameter of
axle shaft oil seal holder
• Differential oil fIller port
• Differential oil drain plug
• Speedometer cable mounting portion

Automatic transmission case

Intermediate case

• Test plugs (two plugs for line pressure, and plugs on forward clutch,
reverse clutch, and transfer clutch)
• Blind plug (steel ball)

6) Extension
• Rear drive shaft oil seal
• Transfer solenoid location
• Thermoswitch location
The points listed above should be
checked for fluid leak. Checking
method is as follows:
• Place the vehicle in the pit, and
check whether the leaking oil is
ATF or not. The ATF is wine red
in color, and can be discriminated
easily from engine oil and gear oil.
• Wipe clean the leaking oil and dust
from a suspectable area, using a
noninflammable organic solvent
such as carbon tetrachloride.
• Run the engine to raise the fluid
temperature, and set the selector
lever to "D" in order to increase
the fluid pressure and quickly
detect a leaking point.
3) Checking the Engine Idling

rpm
Excessively low engine idling rpm will
lead to rough engine operation and
excessively high idling rpm will lead to
a sudden shift shock or creeping when
shifting from N to D or R.

7-32

Idling rpm for
automatic
transmission cars
(N or Prange)

800 ± 100 rpm

4) Checking and Adjusting the
Kickdown Switch and
Downshift Solenoid
Set the ignition switch to ON, and
fully depress the accelerator pedal to
see whether the solenoid functions or
not. If no kickdown occurs, or if the
shift point occurs with the throttle
half open, check the kickdown switch,
downshift solenoid and associated
wires. If kickdown failure occurs infrequently, it may be due to malfunction of the solenoid contaminated
with dirt. Wash the inside of solenoid
while moving the push rod. After
washing, carefully check the operation
of the solenoid.

NOTE:

Before removing or installing the solenoid, drain approx. 2 Q (2.1 US qt, 1.8
Imp qt) of ATF.

5) Checking Negative Intake
Pressure
Check whether pressure is over -60.0
kPa (-450mmHg, -17.72inHg) at
idling speed of engine, and whether
pressure decreases in proportion to
increase of engine speed when accelerator pedal is depressed.

6) Checking Creeping
Check whether car exhibits a certain
amount of creeping when it is brought
to a temporary stop with selector lever
in "D", "2", "1" or "R" position.

7) Checking and Adjusting the
Manual Linkage
Adjustment of the manual linkage, like
the inspection of fluid level, is an
important operation in the automatic
transmission service. Remember that
improper adjustment may lead to a
damaged transmission.

Fig. 7-40 Selector system

1) Inspection
1) While pressing the release button,
move the selector lever from the "P"
to "1" range; a click will be heard in
each position. This clicking sound is
caused by a detent of the manual valve
in the transmission, and it indicates
the correct selector lever position.
Check to see that the indicator needle
is aligned to this position, and also see
that it is aligned with the groove of the
guide plate when the release button
and selector lever are released.
2) Confirm that the selector lever
cannot be moved into "R" from "N"
when pushed lightly, without first
pressing the release button.
3) Confirm that the engine can only
be started in "P" and "N" ranges.
4) Confirm that the backup lamp
will light only when the selector lever
is moved to the "R" range.
5) Place the vehicle on a slope, and
set the selector lever to "P" and check
whether the vehicle is locked properly.

3) Set the detent position so the
selector arm is aligned with the "N"
locating mark of the transmission case
[within the range of a 6 mm (0.24 in)
dia. boss].

A13-437

Fig. 7-41 Adjusting rod

4) Adjust the rod so that the "N"
mark of the guide plate is aligned
correctly with this detent position.
5) If the indicator needle is not aligned with the guide plate marking,
remove the console box, loosen the
four indicator mounting screws and
adjust the position of the indicator
ASSY.

2) Adjustment
If the manual valve detent position is
not aligned with the guide plate groove
position, perform the adjustment as
follows.
1) Set the selector lever to "N".
2) Loosen the adjusting nut of the
linkage rod.

8) Checking the Vacuum
Diaphragm and Vacuum

Hose
A loose or disconnected vacuum hose
will result in rough engine idling and
an abrupt shifting shock even with
light acceleration. In such a case,

7-33

check the vacuum hose for cracks or
check the vacuum hose joint. Excessively large shift shocks and the emission of white exhaust smoke while
running may indicate a broken vacuum
diaphragm. If such symptoms occur,
loosen the two bolts securing the
vacuum pipe (at governor cover and at
the engine and transmission jointing),
and turn the vacuum pipe upward
around the bracket of the diaphragm
joint until the bracket comes free
from the bolts.
Pull the vacuum hose and vacuum pipe
out toward you and drain approx. 2Q
(2.1 US qt, 1.8 Imp qt) of ATF.
Remove the vacuum diaphragm by
rotating by hand.

NOTE:
a. Be sure to remove the vacuum
diaphragm when the transmission is
cold. (To avoid a burn.)
b. Also take out the diaphragm rod.
9) Checking, Correcting,
Disassembling, and
Reassembling the Governor
Valve
If automatic shifting is not performed
normally while running in the D range,
or if acceleration is possible only up to
50 to 60 km/h (31 to 37 MPH) in the
D range, it is often attributable to malfunctioning of the governor valve.
Such malfunctioning may be caused
by sticking of the valve due to clogged
dirt, burrs or nicks on the valve body,
etc.

A13-438

Fig. 7-42 Component of governor

1) Disassembly
1) Remove the three governor cover
mounting bolts from the right side of
the final reduction case, and remove
the governor cover by turning it slightly in order to avoid interference from
the vacuum pipe bracket.

but:
• the engine rpm increase excessively
shifting up from 2 to 3.
• a shift delay (over O. 7 sec) accompanies at kickdown from 3 to 2.
If any of these problems occurs, it is
attributable to excessive clearance
between the reverse clutch drum and
brake band: Tighten the adjust screw
by turning it clockwise.
2) The 2nd gear state can be
achieved, but:
• the shifting shock is too small at
shifting up from 1 to 2.
• a braking phenomenon is noted
when shifting up from 2 to 3.

length is correct, install the vacuum
diaphragm.

1) To check the operation of the
automatic transmission clutch and
brake band.
2) To check the operation of the
torque converter.
3) To check engine performance.
2) Test methods
Prior to the stall tests, check to ensure
the carburetor throttle valve opens
fully, and that the levels of engine oil,
cooling water and ATF are correct.
Set the select lever in the P range and
idle the engine at 1,200 rpm for several
minutes until the ATF reaches approximately 60°C (l40°F).
1) Install an engine tachometer at a
location visible from the driver's compartment and mark the stall speed
range of 2,100 to 2,300 on the tachometer scale.

2) Place the wheel chocks at the
front and rear of all wheels and engage the parking brake.
3) Move the manual linkage to ensure it operates properly, and shift the
select lever to the D range.

7-37

4) While forcibly depressing the foot
brake pedal, gradually depress the
accelerator pedal until the engine operates at full throttle.
5) When the engine speed is stabilized, read that speed quickly and
release the accelerator pedal.
6) Shift the select lever to Neutral,
and cool down the engine by idling it
for more than one minute.
7) Record the stall speed.
8) Perform the stall tests with the
select lever in the 2, 1 and R ranges.

NOTE:
a. Do not continue the stall test for
MORE THAN FIVE SECONDS at
a time (from closed throttle, fully
open throttle to stall speed read·
ing). Failure to follow this instruction causes the engine oil and ATF
to deteriorate and the clutch and
brake band to be adversely affected.
Be sure to cool down the engine
for a, least one minute after each
stall test with the select lever set
in the P or N range and with the
idle speed lower than 1,200 rpm.
b. If the stall speed is higher than the
specified range, attempt to finish
the stall test in as short a time as
possible, in order to prevent the
automatic transmission from sustaining damage.

2) Shift characteristics
Pay careful attention to ensure the
shift is made smoothly at the proper
car speed at which shifting begins.
I) Shifting shocks are encountered
or smooth shifting does not occur.
2) Shifting occurs slowly in response
to the condition of the engine throttle.
The above two problems are due to
incorrect throttle pressure or other
factors involved in throttle pressure.

3) Checking for shift patterns
1) In the D range, shifting should be
made as DI -+ D2 -+ D3 smoothly and
vice versa; it should not be made in
the R range.
2) Kick down should activate properly_
3) When the select lever is shifted
from the D range to the 2 or 1 range,
shifting should be made as D2 -+
2 (1 2) -+ II' Engine compression can
be utilized as a brake at 12 and II.
4) Shifting should not occur while
the select lever is at the 1 range.
5) With the shift lever in the 2 range,
the 2nd gear is engaged and 2nd speed
is maintained.
6) The select lever should be locked
when placed in the Prange.

In road tests, if any abnormality is
noticed in the 2 range, it is necessary
to adjust the brake band. If by inspection the brake band is in good order,
check the servo piston for any sign of
oil leakage from the seal.

stances, may be due to the line
pressure being too high.
• Slippage or inability to operate the
car may, in most cases, be due to
loss of oil pressure for the operation of the clutch, brake band or
control valve.

Check for the 4WD function

With the car in the 4WD mode, turn
the vehicle in a circle while lightly
depressing the accelerator pedal, and
then shift the vehicle into the FWD
mode. When the vehicle is shifted into
the FWD mode, a light shock should
be felt.
Whenever the transfer clutch facing is
replaced with a new one, the above
test should be conducted, for the
run-in purpose, two to three times
with the vehicle set in the 4WD mode
and with the steering wheel fully
turned.

6. Disassembly,
Inspection
and Assembly
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
When disassembling or assembling the
automatic transmission, observe the
following instructions.
I) Workshop
Provide a place that is clean and free
from dust. Principally the conventional
workshop is suitable except for a
dusty place.
In a workshop where grinding work,
etc. which produces fine particles is
done, make independent place divided
by the vinyl curtain or the equivalent.
2) Worktable
The size of I x 1.5 m (40 x 60 in) is
large enough to work, and it is more
desirable that its surface be covered
with flat plate like iron plate which is
not rusted too much.
3) Cleaning of exterior
Clean the exterior surface of transmission with steam and/ or kerosene
prior to disassembly, however it should

7-42
j,L

I

be noted that a cap be placed on the
airbreather to prevent infiltration of
the steam into the transmission and
also the cleaning job be done away
from the place of disassembly and
assembly.
4) Disassembly, assembly and cleaning
a. Disassemble and assemble the transmission while inspecting the parts
in accordance with the Troubleshooting.
b. During job, don't use gloves.
Don't clean the parts with rags:
Use chamois or nylon cloth.
c. Pay special attention to the air to
be used for cleaning.
Get the moisture and the dust rid
of the air as much as possible.
d. Complete the job from cleaning to
completion of assembly as continuously and speedily as possible in
order to avoid occurrence of secondary troubles caused by dust.
When stopping the job unavoidably
cover the parts with clean chamois
or nylon cloth to keep them away
from any dust.
e. Use kerosene, white gasoline or the
equivalent as washing fluid.
Use always new fluid for cleaning
the automatic transmission parts
and never reuse. The used fluid is
usable in disassemble and assemble
work of engine and manual transmission.
f. Although the cleaning should be
done by dipping into the washing
fluid or blowing of the pressurized
washing fluid, the dipping is more
desirable. Assemble the parts immediately after the cleaning without exposure to the air for a while.
Besides in case of washing rubber
parts, perform the job quickly not
to dip them into the washing fluid
for long time.
g. Apply the automatic transmission
fluid (ATF) onto the parts immediately prior to assembly, and
the specified tightening torque
should be observed carefully.
h. Use vaseline if it is necessary to
hold parts in the position when
assembling.
i. Refer to the Service Data in Chapter 2. for the serviceable limit.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND DIFFERENTIAL
j. Replace gaskets, seals, lock washers,
staking nuts, servo apply pipe and
servo release pipe with new ones
whenever they are disassembled.
k. Drain ATF and differential gear oil
into a saucer so that the conditions
of fluid and oil can be inspected.

2 TORQUE CONVERTER

clutch is engaged, and when clockwise,
the clutch is released.
2) Check for the exterior damage, oil
leakage, bend and depression, and
replace if defective.
3) Completely take off the rust on
the pilot and/or sleeve of converter.
4) If the ATF is soiled or excessively
deteriorated, wash the interior of
torque converter as follows.
a. Take off the remained ATF in
torque converter.
b. Pour 0.5 Q (0.5 US qt, 0.4 Imp qt)

of gasoline. (unleaded gasoline or
kerosene)
c. Blow in the compressed air to wash
the interior and then drain the
gasoline.
d. Pour 0.5 Q (0.5 US qt, 0.4 Imp qt)

8-5. Propeller Shaft
1. Removal
a. Jack up the vehicle and support it
with rigid racks.
b. Detach propeller shaft flange yoke
from companion flange of differential assembly.

c. Insert the cap into the extension to
prevent mission oil from flowing
out immediately after removing the
propeller shaft assembly.

c. Take out propeller shaft assembly
rearward.

NOTE:
a. Prepare an oil can and cap since the
mission oil flows out from extension at removing propeller shaft
assembly.
b. When removing propeller shaft
assembly, pay attention not to
damage the sliding surfaces of
rear drive shaft (extension) spline,
oil seal and sleeve yoke.

2. Inspection
As a rule, do not disassemble the
propeller shaft assembly since it is
balanced. Inspect each part before
disassembling, and correct or replace if
any fault is evident.
I) Replace if the journal portion is
worn, damaged, or abnormal anyway.
2) Replace the snap ring if it is
damaged or its tension is insufficient.

8-15

3) Correct the loose joint by using a
selective snap ring.
4) Replace if any dent or crack is
evident on the tube surface.
5) Replace if runout of the tube
exceeds the limit when rotating with
the both end supported.
Limit of
runout

0.6 mm (0.024 in)

6) Correct or replace if joint movement is not smooth or the bending
resistance exceeds the limit.
Maximum

3. Disassembly

4. Assembly

When disassembling or repairing because of sheer necessity, proceed in
the following order, and never forget
to provide matching marks on the
sleeve yoke, flange yoke, tube, etc_
before disassembly.
1) Remove snap ring with a flat
blade screw driver.
2) Remove bearing race by tapping
the root of yoke with a hammer.

Selective

1) Assemble in the reverse order of
disassembling and never fail to align
the marks made prior to disassembling.
2) Since this joint is of the maintenance-free type, refill new grease
when reassembling.
3) Adjust journal axial play by
selecting proper snap rings. The
opposing snap rings must be of the
same thickness.

9·9. Adjustment of Rear Road Clearance
Rear road clearance can be adjusted
also by changing engagement of inner
and outer serrations of torsion bar.
Since numbers of teeth of inner and
outer serrations are 37 and 34 respec·
tively and distance between torsion
bar center and wheel center is approx.
400 mm (15.75 in), shifting the matching of inner or outer serration by one
pitch causes change in rear road
clearance by 68 mm or 74 mm (2.68
or 2.91 in) respectively.
Therefore, by shifting the matchings
of inner and outer serrations in opposite directions, various adjustments can
b.e made.
Adjustment with rear suspension
mounted on the vehicle can be made
as follows.
1) Measure rear road clearance, and
determine numbers of teeth to be
shifted on inner and/or outer serra·
tions.
2) Remove the bolt which attaches
shock absorber to the body at the top

of shock absorber.
3) Jack up the vehicle body and
remove wheels.
4) Remove lock bolt of outer bush·
ing.
5) Remove three bolts connecting
outer arm and inner arm, with brake
drum supported by a jack or the
like to prevent brake hose from
damage.
6) Mark on outer bushing, crossmember and torsion bar so as to
identify their original positions.
7) Measure vertical distance between
end of outer arm and vehicle body.
8) Pull out outer arm together
with torsion bar until inner serration
is disengaged completely.
9) Rotate torsion bar and outer arm
to shift matching of inner serration
by appropriate pitches, and engage
inner serration with crossmember.
10) Pull out outer arm from torsion
bar, and rotate outer arm to opposite
direction to shift matching of outer

serration by appropriate pitches.

NOTE:

Pay attention not to disengage inner
serration of torsion bar from cross·
member.
11) Install outer arm to trosion bar
and crossmember, and then measure
in the same manner as step 7).
Change in this distance shows a
half of change in rear road clearance
caused by adjustment.
12) Connect outer arm and inner
arm by installing three bolts.
13) Carry out same work on the
other wheel.
14) Install wheels, and put the
vehicle down on the ground.
15) Install shock absorber. to vehicle
body.
16) Install lock bolt of outer bushing.
17) Confirm that rear road clearance
is properly adjusted.

4. Checking Rear

Axle
Each part of axle must be checked
carefully before and during overhaul
to locate any possible cause of trouble.
I) Jack up body and turn wheel
by hand to check it s rotation. (At the
same time make sure drum does not
touch shue.) [I' there is abnorlllal noise
or if the rotation is not smooth, disasselll ble and examine axle carefully.
A damaged bearing, mud in the
hearing case, and so on are possible
c0.

~'l

Check removed wheels for followings.
I) Damage and/or warp of rim.
Since damaged or warped rim may
cause air leakage from tire, replace or
repair if defective.
2) Take stone, glass, nail etc. off the
tread groove.
3) Large crack on side wall, damage
or crack on tread and tread wear.
The tire should be replaced, when the
"tread wear indicator" appears as a
solid band across the tread.
Tread wear indicator

Pay attention to the following.
I) Be sure not to damage wheel rim
and tire.
2) If the bead section of tire is
damaged, replace it with a specified
new one.
3) If the flange portion of wheel rim
is deformed or damaged, replace it
with a specified new one.
4) Install a snap-in valve into the
valve hole of wheel rim properly not
to leak air.

2) Damaged or warped rim may
cause air leakage from tire, so check
rims periodically.
Pay special attention to removing and
reinstalling tires.
3) As scratched bead of tire may also
cause the air leak from tire, tire should
be removed or installed carefully not
to mar the bead of tire.

2. Inspection

Loosening wheel nuts

2) Set jack at the correct jack-up
point, and turn the jack handle slowly
to jack car up, and then proceed to
remove wheel and tire by removing
wheel nuts completely.

--

NOTE:
a. When jacking the car up, make sure
the jack is set at the correct position on the flange of side sill.
b. When jacking the car up by using
a garage jack, refer to the section
"1-9. lifting Points and Procedure".

Tubeless tires are prepared for all
SUBARU vehicles, so pay attention to
the following.
1) Avoid using a hammer to prevent
damaging disc wheel and tire. If the
use of such a tool is unavoidable, use
a rubber hammer.

9-38

Unbalanced wheel (including disc
wheel and tire) can result from improper wheel alignment, lateral slippage, uneven wheel wear due to
insufficient air pressure, and wheel
repair work. After tire exchange or
wheel repair work has been performed,
be sure to check static and dynamic
balancing of wheels. Unbalanced wheel
does not greatly influence vehicle
operation at low and medium speeds.
At 60 km/h (37 MPH) and over,
however, the steering system can be
influenced, that is, as illustrated
below, force proportional to the
increase in the wheel revolu tion is
applied in the direction indicated by
the arrow.
This force causes "steering wheel
shimmy" or what can otherwise be
termed steering wheel instability.

NOTE:

There are various ways to correct
wheel unbalance. To correct precisely
wheel unbalance, use wheel balancer.

I) Fit wheel over drum bolts, and
thread on four wheel nuts with a
wheel nut wrench.

NOTE:
When operating a wheel balancer, be
careful of the handling.
I) Correctly install hub nut. The
balancer shaft must be aligned with
the center of wheel to be corrected.
2) Firmly seat wheel on arbor.
3) Handle the disc wheel fitting section of balance weight carefully
because it is easily damaged.
4) After installing balance weight,
position it in the groove of disc
wheel.
5) Use genuine balance weights.

a. Do not use air impact tool to
tighten the wheel nuts.
b. Tighten the wheel nuts in the order
. as shown.

As shown in table on page 9-4, air
pressure must be adjusted to the prescribed value when tires are cool, or
before starting vehicle, as air pressure
increases as tire temperature rises
during vehicle operation. This rise
amounts to an increase of up to 20%
at times, and at such a high pressure
the ride is uncomfortable, abnormal
wear is promoted, various forms of
damage may result, steering instability
is likely, along with insufficient
braking, etc.
On the other hand, exceSSively low
air pressure in tires may result in
abnormal wear, various forms of
damage, loss of drive power, increased
fuel consumption, etc.
.
Tire air pressure must be adjusted in
accordance with these conditions.

If tires are maintained at the same
positions for a long period of time,
uneven wear results. Therefore, they
should be periodically rotated.
This lengthens service life of tires.

2. Pads Replacement

6) Remove pads from support.

3) Installation
1) It is necessary to push back piston
into cylinder ,since piston protrudes
from cylinder in proportion to the
amount of pad wear, and the gap
where pads are to be inserted is
narrow.
Rotate piston clockwise with Wrench
(925590000) to force in piston to
caliper body, and set the piston notch
to the specified position.

1) Removal
1) Apply wheel chocks on rear
wheels and jack up the vehicle front,
then remove front wheels.
2) Return hand brake lever completely.
3) Remove inner cab Ie end from
lever, draw out outer cable clamp,
then disconnect hand brake cable from
caliper body ASSY.

NOTE:
a. Always replace the pads for both
the left and right wheels at the
same time. Also replace pad clips
if they are twisted or worn.
b. The clip incorporated with inner
pad is also used as a warning device
for worn pads. When wear occurs
on the pad to such an extent that
the clip comes into contact with
the rotor, unusual noise is produced
when brakes are not applied. If
such a noise is noticed, replace
the pad.

After pushing back piston, check
piston boot for twist. If twisted,
correct twist using a strip driver.

NOTE:
a. Do not disconnect hose.
b. Always return the piston to that
point which allows only a minimum
clearance for the pad to be inserted.
c. Be sure to use the special tool
when pushing in the piston to the
caliper body. If the piston is pushed
into the caliper body with a vice
and without rotating it, the spindle
(5·thread) may be buckled. To
prevent this, the piston should be
rotated clockwise when pushed into
the caliper body.

BRAKES
Remove rust and foreign materials
from the contact area of support with
the sliding part of pad. Apply PBe
grease (725191060 or 003603000) to
this area. Then, install a new genuine
SUBARU pad. Make sure that pad
clips are in normal operating condition
before installing new pad.

NOTE:

a. Securely attach all pads to the frictional surfaces of their supports.
b. Do not install shim on inner pad.

5) No further adjustment is needed,
since the clearance is automatically
adjusted every time the brake is
applied.
6) Put back tires and rotate them
several times. Then, wind a rope
around the circumference of tire, and
confirm that tire can be rotated with
a force of less than 39 N (4 kg, 9 Ib)
at,the outside diameter of tire.
a. If wheel bearing is worn or disc
rotor is not exactly perpendicular
to the counterpart, the surface of
disc rotor runs out in the axial
direction during rotation. This
causes disc rotor to be pressed
against lining, and rotational resistance increases.
When such trouble occurs, measure
the disc rotor run-out. If the runout exceeds the limit, change the
tightening position of rotor on hub
or the meshing position of hub to
axle shaft serration. If this does not
correct the run-out, replace rotor.

a. Install one end of a vinyl tube onto
air bleeder screw and put the other
end into container.
b. Attach a wrench to bleeder screw,
but do not loosen it at this point.
c. Instruct your co-worker to depress
brake pedal slowly 2 or 3 times and
then hold it depressed.
d. Loosen bleeder screw approximately 1/4 turn until a small
amount of brake fluid drains into
container, and then quickly tighten
the screw.
e. Repeat steps c) and d) above until
there are no air bubbles in the
drained brake fluid.

NOTE:

Add brake fluid as necessary while
performing the air bleed operation, in
order to prevent reservoir from running short of brake fluid.

2. Air Bleeding

2) Check after Bleeding Air

2) Proper air bleeding
Depress brake pedal to determine if its
operation and stroke length are
correct.
3) Fluid level in reservoir
Fill reservoir with brake fluid up to
the "MAX" level.
4) Drive car in low speed and depress
brake pedal a little strongly several
times to make sure that the brakes are
operating properly.

Air in wheel cylinder will cause brake
pedal to feel spongy, and also make
the pedal stroke longer, which can lead
to an accident. Upon completion of
the disassembly and assembly of the
brake, or after brake hose replacement
etc., be sure to bleed air from the
brake system.

1) Brake fluid leakage
Depress brake pedal strongly and hold
it there for approximately 20 seconds.
At this time check the pedal to see if it
shows any unusual movement, visually
inspect bleeder screws and brake pipe
joints to make sure that there is no
fluid leakage.

NOTE:
a. Use recommended brake fluid.
b. Always use new brake fluid.
c. The boiling point of the brake fluid
lowers as it absorbs moisture from
the air; be careful to protect the
brake fluid from contact with air
during storage.

f. After completing the bleeding
operation, hold brake pedal depressed and tighten the screw and
install bleeder cap.

10-10. Hill-Holder
1. Construction and
Operation

Fork (clutch release)

1) Outline
Hill-holder is a device to make
starting on an uphill road easy and
permits even a driver not yet familiarized with starting by use of parking
brake to start the vehicle smoothly.
When pressing down the clutch
pedal with the brake pedal depressed
in order to start the vehicle on an
uphill road, this device holds the
brake temporarily upon taking your
foot off the brake pedal (until the
clutch pedal is released). Therefore,
smooth starting is enabled by usual
engagement of the clutch while depressing the accelerator pedal.

(Front)

(Rear!
Clutch pedal

PHV cable

A17-262

Fig. 10-82 Outline of hill-holder

2) Pressure Hold Valve (PHV)
PHV (Pressure Hold Valve) is
connected to one of the service brake
pipes and pushrod (8) is pushed in
and/or pulled out by cam shaft (2)
interlinked with the clutch pedal to
change the clearance between ball (3)
and seal (5), thereby opening and/or
closms the hydraulic circuit. Normally, on a flat road, ball (3) is located at
the front and the valve is kept opened
regardless of the position of the pushrod. (ntis status is the same as on a
downhill road.)
When stopping the vehicle on an
uphill road by depressing both brake
and clutch pedals, the ball roIls toward
the rear and, at the same time, the
pushrod retracts to close the valve, so
that hydraulic pressure is maintained.
Even when takins your foot off the
brake pedal, the hydraulic pressure is
maintained so far as the clutch pedal is
kept depressed. In this status, when
engaging the clutch ordinarily while
depressing the accelerator pedal, the
maintained hydraulic pressure is released simultaneously with the generation of driving force to permit
smooth starting.

• Activating condition
This device is activated only when
depressing the clu tch and b rake pedals
with the vehicle stopped on an uphill
road.

This device is not designed to
operate on a flat road, except for
reversing.

b. During deceleration

3) Operational Precautions

A17-266

Fig. 10-86

Even when depressing the clutch
pedal, the ball is kept at the front
by decelerating force. In this status,
hydraulic pressure is not maintained.

A17-264

Fig. 10-84

When stopping the vehicle on an
uphill road, the ball rolls toward the
rear to seal the port and therefore the
hydraulic pressure is maintained even
by releasing the brake pedaL

2.

When stopping

A17-267

• Inactive status
This accessory is not activated in
any status other than the above.
1.

Fig. 10-87

While driving

a. During acceleration or usual driving

Even when stopping on an uphill
road, hydraulic pressure is not maintained unless the clutch pedal is depressed.

3.

On a flat road

A17-265

Fig. 10-85

Since the clutch pedal is not depressed, the pushrod is located outside the port. In this status, hydraulic pressure cannot be maintained.

A17-215

Fig. 10-88

10-30

1. Hill-holder is a device used to
facilitate starting on an uphill road.
For stoppage on the uphill road,
therefore, you must keep the brake
pedal depressed or pull the parking
brake.
2. Hill-holder may not be activated on
a slope of an extremely small inclination.
3. If the brake is not held sufficiently
upon releasing the brake pedal with
the clutch pedal depressed, press
down the brake pedal a little
strongly once again.
4. If depressing the clutch pedal again
in the course of starting operation,
the brake may be released. In this
case, depress the brake pedal again.
(Because the brake is released when
returning the clutch pedal halfway)
(For example, when interrupting
starting operation or shifting gear
from other than WW because of
misoperation)
5. Before you leave the driver's seat,
be sure to pull the parking lever and
confirm that the vehicle is kept
stopped upon releasing the clutch
pedal.
6. When reversing the vehicle on a flat
road, the following phenomena
may be felt. These phenomena are
caused by the activation of the hill
holder, which does not constitute
abnormality.
a. Brake effect remains even after
releasing the brake pedal if depressing the clutch and brake
pedals when reversing the vehicle.
b. A slight shock is given to the
vehicle when starting the vehicle
after stopping the reverse
movement.

(2) When releasing after maintaining high
fluid pressure:

(Flowing sound of fluid when releasing high fluid pressure)

(3) Clu tch system is anomalous

Refer to "Clutch and pedal cable system"

CAUTION:
a. Description in parentheses is a characteristic of hill-holder and does not indicate abnormality.
Depressing force required for clutch pedal equipped to hill-holder specifications is 20 to 29 N (2 to 3 kg, 4 to 7 Ib) larger than
the conventional specifications, which does not constitute abnormality.
b. When vehicle cannot travel (brake cannot be released) because return spring is broken, remove adjust nut, disconnect clutch
and PHV, and then return PHV lever to release the brake.
c. The hill-holder may not be activated on a slope of an extremely small inclination. If you want to correct it, insert a shim in
between the side frame and support, thereby raising the front of PHV.
When inserting a shim, be sure to confirm stopping status on a slope whenever inserting a single shim. It is recommendable to
avoid raising front of PHV excessively. Never insert 2 or more shims at a time.

STEERING SYSTEM

11-3. Operating Principle (Power Steering System)
1) The engine drives vane pump (I)
through belt to deliver working fluid.
2) The delivered working fluid is
controlled to appropriate volume ac·
cording to engine speed by flow con·
trol valve (2) in the hydraulic pump
ASSY, and is fed to control valve (4)
through pressure hose (3).
3) When turning the steering wheel,

piston (8) and generates rightward or
leftward force on rack shaft (9),
thereby assisting and reducing the
steering effort.
5) When rack piston (8) is shifted,
working fluid in the other working
chamber is forced out and returned to
oil reservoir (11) via pipe (5) or (6),
control valve (4) and return hose (10).

the above·mentioned control valve (4)
coupled to the pinion shaft works to
form working fluid line according to
the steering direction. That is, working
fluid passes through pipe (5) or (6)
and enters working chamber A or B of
power cylinder (7).
4) The working fluid entering either
of the working chambers acts on rack

NOTE:

a. If a trouble occurs on the hydraulic
system, the steering shaft is me·
chanically coupled with the pinion
shaft via control valve (4) and
operates the rack and pinion the
same as in the manual steering
system.
b. Relief valve (12) incorporated in
the hydraulic pump ASSY limits
the maximum hydraulic pressure
and reliaves pressure if an excassive
pressure works on the valve.

11-5. Tilt Steering Wheel

Center of
rotation

1. General
The tilt steering wheel is designed
to adjust up or down in seven steps
from the neutral position: four steps
upward (9°48') and three steps downward (7°21').
Tilting of the steering wheel is
accomplished by means of a universal
joint (utilized as a pivot), which is
attached to the steering shaft located
beneath the instrument panel.
Two "arc" shaped gears are used to
engage and disengage all of the tilt
positions and are operated by the tilt
lever.

2. Construction

3. Operation

The upper shaft ® is attached to
the steering lock (j) by a bearing. The
upper end of the upper shaft is
attached to the steering wheel ® and
the lower end is connected to the
lower shaft @ by means of the
universal joint @ .
The tilt bracket ®, which is attached to the column bracket ® by
the bolt @ and pin @, moves up or
down, along with the steering lock (j),
with the bolt and pin used as pivot.
The column pipe CD and column
bracket ® are welded into a one-piece
construction, and the lower shaft @
is incorporated in this one-piece
structure.
The balance springs @ are placed
between the column bracket ® and
tilt bracket ® to hold the steering
wheel in the upward direction by their
tension.
The shock absorbing unit is of an
elliptic, expanding pipe design while
the column bracket is a collapsible
column design.

1) The tilt lever is provided with a
guide groove of gourd design, as shown
in the figure. Into the groove is inserted a pin that is unitized with the lock

3 Return spring
4 Sector gear

S Pin
6 Guide groove
7 Tilt lever
A18·3l0

Lock gear disengaged
A18·3ll

Fig. 11-19
11-11

2) The tilt lever is equipped with a
roller that pushes the rear face of the
lock gear by the lever spring, locking
the engagement of the lock gear with
the sector gear without any clearance.
3) When the tilt lever is pushed
down, the roller on the tilt lever moves
away from the rear face of the lock
gear and the pin that is unitized with
the lock gear moves along the guide
groove. This then causes the lock gear
to release the sector gear.
4) With the steering wheel positioned
at any desired angle, releasing the tilt
lever will return the lever to the original position by return spring tension.
This causes the roller (unitized with
the tilt lever) to push the rear face of
the lock gear, so that the lock gear is
engaged with the sector gear.
The force of the roller against the
rear face of the lock gear is added by
the "wedging" effect.

1) Boot must be moved aside. Clean
all mud off tie-rod.
2) Remove boot from gearbox, and
move it toward tie-rod end as far as it
will go. Do not allow clip on the small
end of boot to come off. Remove the
boot's small end from the tie-rod
groove first and then the large end.
Next move boot aside.

with waste cloth around it, and take it
out.

3) After taking out carburetor shield,
turn adjust bolt counterclockwise, and
take out oil pump belt.

NOTE:

NOTE:

Do not pinch idler cap directly by
pliers without cushioning waste cloth
around it nor remove it by using a
minus-head screwdriver; otherwise the
cap might be damaged.

After adjust bolt is loosened by turning counterclockwise, idler pulley will
normally be slid upward by the tension
of oil pump belt, and the belt will
become ready for easy removal.

a_ It is sufficient to lift air horn by
about 25 mm (1 in). Lifting to an
excessive extent would result in
disconnection of pipes from air
cleaner. In case they are disconnected, connect them propErly.
b. Do not put an excessive load on oil
pump assembly since it is supported
by flange nut at rear end of it
alone.
6) Take out bracket with idler pulley
by removing bolts.

GOOD

Measure steering effort,
refer to the following
article 3).

*1 If tires and/or rims are wider, the load to power steering system is the more.
Accordingly, in a condition, for example before fluid warms up, relief valve
may work before maximum turning angle. In this case, steering effort may be
heavy. When measured hydraulic pressure is normal, there is no abnormal thing.
*2 In cold weather, steering effort may be heavy due to increased flow resistance
of cold fluid. After warming up engine, tum steering wheel from stop t o stop
several times to warm up fluid. Then if steering effort reduces normally, t here is
no abnormal thing.
*3 In cold weather or with insufficient warm up of engine, steering effort may be
heavy due to excessive drop of idling speed when turning steering wheel. In this
case, it is recommended to start the car with increasing engine speed than usual.
Then if steering effort reduces normally, there is no abnormal thing.

*5 Fluid level is specified at optimum position (range) for ordinary use. Accordingly when the car is used in many times in hard
conditions like as very rough road or mountain area, fluid may bleed out from air vent hole of cap. This is not a problem.
If a customer complains strongly and he is not likely to satisfy for this phenomena, lower the fluid level so extent that fluid
does not bleed out at the above conditions and lead him to perform checking of fluid level and fluid deterioration more
frequently_

*8 Oil pump makes whine or growl noise slightly due to its mechanism. Even if the noise can be heard when steering wheel is
turned at standstill there is no abnormal function in the system provided that the noise eliminates when the car is running.
*9 When stopping with service brake and/or parking brake applied, power steering can be operated easily due to its light
steering effort. If doing so, the disk rotates slightly and makes creaking noise. The noise is generated by creaking between
the disk and pads. If the noise goes off when the brake is released, there is no abnonnal function in the system.
*10 There may be a little vibration around the steering devices when turning steering wheel at standstill, even though the
component parts are properly adjusted and have no defects.
Hidraulic systems are likely to generate this kind of vibration as well as working noise and fluid noise because of conbined
conditions, i.e.,
Road surface and tire surface, Engine speed and turning speed of steering wheel, Fluid temperature and braking condition.
This phenomena does not indicate there is some abnormal function in the system.
The vibration can be known when steering wheel is turned repeatedly at various speeds from slow to rapid step by step with
parking brake applied on concrete road and in "D" range for automatic transmission vehicle.

*11 Although surface layer materials of rubber hoses have excellent weathering resistance, heat resistance and resistance for low

temperature brittleness, they are likely to be damaged chemically by brake fluid, battery electrolyte, engine oil and
automatic transmission fluid and their service lives are to be very shortened. It is very important to keep the hoses free
from before-mentioned fluids and to wipe out immediately when the hoses are adhered with the fluids.
Since resistances for heat or low temperature brittleness are gradually declining according to time accumulation of hot or
cold conditions for the hoses and their service lives are shortening accordingly, it is necessary to perform careful inspection
frequently when the car is used in hot weather areas, cold weather areas and/or a driving condition in which many times
steerings are required in short time. Particularly continuous work of relief valve over 5 seconds causes to reduce service lives
of the hoses, the oil pump assembly, the fluid, etc. due to over heat.
So, avoid to keep this kind of condition when servicing as well as driving.

Check air leakage as follows.
1) Start the engine and set temperature control dial to COLD position.
Then set fresh air ventilation lever
of OFF position.
2) Then check air leakage after
switching on the fan to the fourth
step.
i) A/C position
a. With mode lever at this position, outside air is directed
to compartment only from
center and side air outlets.
If leakage exceeds 0.5 m/sec (1.6
ft/sec) through lower outlet or
more than 0.8 m/sec (2.6 ft/sec)
through DEF nozzle, it is necessary to adjust control system.

outlet

ii) HEAT position
With mode lever in this position,
most of outside air is directed
through lower air outlets, with
air also discharged from defroster nozzle at a speed of 1 to 2
m/sec (3 to 7 ft/sec) into compartment.
If leakage exceeds OJ m/sec (1.0
ft/sec) through center or side
outlets, adjust control system.
iii) DEF position
With mode lever in this position, air is discharged only from
defroster nozzle. If leakage exceeds 0.5 m/sec (I.6 ft/sec)
through lower outlet or OJ
m/sec (1.0 ft/sec) through center
and side outlets, adjust the
control system.

HEATING, VENTILATING AND AIR-CONDITIONING SYSTEM
2) Vacuum System
The vacuum system's composition
is shown below. It utilizes engine
vacuum to operate the lever of the
carburetor linkage (F.I.C.D.) and the
changeover shutter in order to intake
internal compartment or exterior air.
1) When the air conditioner switch
is turned on, the air valve communicates between the source and the
actuator sides to operate the actuator (F.I.C.D.). This pulls the lever

(F.I.C.D.), which causes idling speed
to increase until the set value (950 ±
50 rpm) is reached.
2) If the control lever is CIRC-A/C.
MAX., the vacuum switch closes between the source and actuator sides,
thus passenger compartment air alone
is drawn into the unit.
If the mode lever is in a different
position, the vacuum switch is open
between both sides, so the actuator
operates, and exterior air is introduced.

3) Electrical System
1) When the mode (control) lever is
set at "CIRC-A/C. MAX", "A/C", or
"DEF", the air conditioner switch
(microswitch) will be turned on. In
this condition, when the blower switch
is turned on, the blower relay, air
conditioner relay, and sub-fan relay
will activate. This in turn causes the
blower motor, air valve (F.I.C.D.),
compressor clutch, and sub-fan to
activate.
2) In addition, activating the pressure switch (main fan control) or the
thermo switch will cause the main fan
to activate.
3) With the main fan in operation,
turning on the headlights will cause
the condenser fan (sub-fan) to stop.
4) When either the low pressure
switch or the thermostat activates, all
air conditioner circuits except the
blower motor will deactivate. In this
condition, however, when the temperature of the coolant in the radiator is
high enough and the thermo switch
turns on, the radiator fan (main fan)
will activate.

3) Maintenance
Periodical maintenance and
season-in inspection
Both periodic~. maintenance and
season-in inspection are most essential
to enable the air conditioner to give
full performance.
Perform the following checks.
1) Start engine and check refrigerant
level through sight glass on receiver
drier. For details, refer to relative

• If a large amount of dirt and sand
enter the system, they will be
carried with refrigerant and may
clog the system or scratch rotating
parts. This points out the need for
care in servicing the system. That
is, disconnecting joints should be
carried out in a clean place.
• Water should not be allowed to get
inside the system. The refrigerant
does not readily mix with water.
However, the presence of even a
minute amount of water will cause
a chemical reaction at high temperature which will in turn produce
hydrochloric acid (HCI), Since
hydrochloric acid is highly corrosive to metals, the aluminum and
copper piping, etc. will become
corroded and the refrigeration
system will become clogged.
• Water in the system will ice the

orifice when the high pressure refrigerant is changed to low pressure
refrigerant by expansion valve, etc.,
and will obstruct the refrigerant
flow.

5) Safety Precautions
1) Since direct contact of the liquid
refrigerant with your skin will cause
frostbite, always be careful when
handling the refrigerant. Wear gloves
or wrap a piece of cloth around service
valve to protect your fmgers against
frostbite by refrigerant. If any of the
refrigerant should get into your eyes
when charging the refrigerant, splash
your eyes with cool water to raise the
temperature gradually. Apply a protective fIlm to the eye to avoid infection.
Do not rub your eyes. Consult an eye
specialist. Always wear goggles or
glasses to' protect your eyes when
working around the system. Should
refrigerant strike your body, splash
on cool water and apply a protective

ftIm.
2) The refrigerant service container
has a safe strength. However, if handled incorrectly, it will explode.
Therefore, always follow the instructions on the label. In particular, never
store it in a hot location [above 52°C
(126°F)] or drop it from a high
height.
3) The refrigerant gas is odorless and
colorless and breathing may become
difficult due to the lack of oxygen.
Since the refrigerant gas is heavier than
air and will lay close to the floor, be
especially careful when handling it in
small, confined spaces.
4) The refrigerant itself is nonflammabie. However, a toxic gas (phosgene
gas) is produced when it contacts fire
and special care is therefore required
when checking for leaks in the system
with a halide torch.
5) Do not steam clean on the system, especially condenser since excessively high pressure will build up in the
system, resulting in explosion of the
system.
The above precautions are essential in
handling of Refrigerant-12, and their
strict observation requires sufficient
training. Therefore, it is of first importance that any other personnel

(Disconnection from service valve)

Handling manifold gauge
During servicing, use caution to keep
air from getting into refrigerant.
When air enters the system, all refrigerant must be evacuated from system
prior to charging new refrigerant. Air
in refrigerant has the following deleterious effects:
1) Since the condensation temperature of the air is extremely low, the air
will not be condensed when refrigerant
gas is condensed in the condenser, and
the air will thus remain in gaseous
form. Consequently, the effective thermal transmission area of condenser for
refrigerant gas will be reduced and
refrigerant gas to be condensed will be
reduced. The pressure rise will become
proportional to the volume of the air
in system.

The pressure at the high- and low-sides
of system should be measured when
evacuating and charging refrigerant
and when diagnosing trouble in the
system. The manifold gauge is used for
these purposes. A manifold gauge has
two pressure gauges; a low pressure
gauge and a high pressure gauge. These
gauges are connected to the highand low-side service valves of system
through flexible charging hoses. The
construction of manifold gauge is
shown in Figure.
When valve stem is fully screwed, the
valve is front-seated and valve path and
the center path are blocked. When
valve stem is backed off, the paths are
opened.

Repair.

Stop compressor and
conduct an overall
check.

Check for gas leakage,
repair as required,
replenish and charge
system.

NOTE:
a. The bubbles seen through the sight
glass are influenced by the ambient
temperature. Since the bubbles are
hard to show up in comparatively
low temperatures below 200C
(68°F), it is possible that a slightly
larger amount of refrigerant would
be filled, if supplied according to
the sight glass. Be sure to recheck
the amount when it exceeds 20°C
(68° F). In higher temperature the
bubbles are easy to show up.
b. When the screen in the receiver
drier is clogged, the bubbles will

appear even if the amount of refrigerant is normal. In this case, the
outlet side pipe of the receiver drier
becomes considerably cold.

A26-044

Both pressures on high
and low pressure sides
are abnormally high.
Discharge refrigerant
from service valve of
low pressure side.

Overcharging will show up in higher
pressure on discharge side.

9) Compressor Oil Level Check
Perfonnance test
Check for the amount of refrigerant
in the system can be made by measuring pressure on discharge side.
The correct amount of refrigerant is
in the system, if pressure on the discharge side is within the specified
range. For details, refer to "Performance Test" described later.

The oil used to lubricate compressor circulates into system with refrigerant gas while compressor is operating.
If a considerable amount of leakage of
refrigerant gas happens, the leakage
of compressor oil is also considered.
There will be no compressor oil leakage from a completely sealed system.
When system operates under satisfying

HEATING , VENTILATING AND AIR-CONDITIONING SYSTEM
condition, the compressor oil level
check is unnecessary.
When checking the level of compressor
oil or when replacing any component
part of the system, use the following
service procedure. This facilitates to
return oil to compressor.
1) Operate compressor at engine
speed from 1,000 rpm to 1,500 rpm
with controls set for maximum cooling
and high blower speed for about 10
minutes in order to return compressor
oil to compressor.
2) Stop the engine and discharge
refrigerant of system and then remove
compressor from the car.
3) When exchanging the compressor
for new one which contains 150 cm 3
(ISO cc, 9.15 cu in) oil, drain 80 cm 3
(80 cc, 4.88 cu in) oil from it or
adjust the amount of oil to the same
of the removed compressor.
4) When exchanging for a service
compressor which contains 70 cm 3
(70 cc, 4.27 cu in) oil, install it without any adjusting.
5) When exchanging a cooling unit,
pour SO cm 3 (SO cc, 3.05 cu in) oil to
the compressor from the suction hose
after installing the cooling unit.
If compressor is inoperative due to
defective compressor or heavy loss of
refrigerant, exchange the compressor
through the procedure from 2 to S.

judge whether system is operating correctly and can also be used as a guide
in checking for problems.
1) Park the car indoors or in the
shade.
2) Open all the windows of the car
fully. However, close the doors.
3) Open the hood.
4) Connect manifold gauge to highand low-side service valves of the
system. Refer to "Handling Manifold
Gauge".
5) Set mode lever to AIC MAX position.
6) Set temperature control dial to
COLD position.
7. Set blower to its highest speed.
8. Start the engine and hold engine
speed at 1;500 rpm.
9) After the air conditioner has been
operated for about 10 minutes, measure system pressures at high-pressure
(discharge) side and low-pressure (suction) side.
10) Measure the temperatures of inlet
air to blower and outlet air at the
grilles.
11) Measure the temperature and
humidity of the ambient air at a point
1 m (3.3 ft) front of condenser. However, a dry bulb and wet bulb must
not be placed in direct sunlight.
12) Check for any abnormalities by
comparing the test results with standard pressure in "Performance Chart".

NOTE:

10) Performance Test
The cooling performance of the air
conditioner changes considerably with
changes in surrounding conditions.
Testing must be performed using the
correct method. This test is used to

a. The pressure will change in the
following manner with changes in
conditions:
• When blower speed is low, discharge pressure will drop.
• When the relative humidity of intake air is low, discharge pressure
will drop.
b. The temperature will change in the

13-28

following manner with changes in
conditions:
When the ambient air temperature
is low, the oudet air temperature
will become low.
If the test reveals that there is any
abnormality in system pressure, isolate
the cause and repair by reference to
"Troubleshooting".

11) Refrigerant Leaks
If leaks are noticeable, leaky parts
should be repaired. Then system
should be fllied with refrigerant. Do
not operate compressor with refrigerant level exceSSively low.
If this caution is neglected, a burnt
compressor will result since heavy loss
of refrigerant usually indicates heavy
loss of compressor oil.
If system has been exposed to atmosphere for an extended period of time,
receiver drier must be replaced. If
leaks are slight and no air is present
in system, add refrigerant as necessary.
To detect leaks, refer to relative
topics under "Checking for Leaks".
Here is how leaks are stopped.
1) Check torque on the conn~ction
fitting and, if too loose, tighten to the
proper torque. Check for gas leakage
with a leak detector.
2) If leakage continues even after the
fitting has been retightened, discharge
refrigerant from system, disconnect
the fittings, and check its seating face
for damage. Always replace even if
damage is slight.
3) Check compressor oil and add oil
if required.
4) Charge refrigerant and recheck
for gas leaks. If no leaks are found,
evacuate and charge system.

Wrong

~

NOTE:
If the contact pressure is excessive,
erroneous engagement with the weatherstrip, abnormal wear, increase in
force needed to operate the regulator
or a similar trouble might be caused.
c. Door glass rear edge does not contact to the shoulder of weatherstrip on side window glass.
If it contacts, the gap is improperly
adjusted.
d. There is no clearance between door
glass and weatherstrip on side window.
If there is clearance, the contact
pressure is insufficiently adjusted.

4) Make sure tha t the gaps at side
window glass are provided in accordance with above figure.
C Check of side window adjustment
1) After adjusting side window glass,
fit roof side weatherstrip securely to
the retainer.
2) Confirm the following items so as
to prevent water leakage or the like
trouble_
a. The whole edge of glass is covered
with the lip of weatherstrip, leaving no clearance.
If there is a clearance, the gap is
inproperly adjusted.
b. No clearance appears by slightly
pushing the glass from the passenger compartment.
If a clearance does, the contact
pressure is insufficiently adjusted.

1. Battery
1) Removal & Installation
1) Disconnect the positive (+) tenninal after disconnecting the negative (-)
tenninal of the battery.
2) Remove the flange nuts from the
battery rods and take off the battery
holder.
3) Remove the battery.
4) Installation should follow the
removal procedure in the reverse
order.

A9·002

Fig. 15-2 Electrolyte level

NOTE:
a. Electrolyte has toxicity; be careful
handling the fluid.
b. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or
clothing. Especially at contact with
eyes, blush with water for 15
minutes and get prompt· medical
attention.
c. Batteries produce explosive gasses.
Keep sparks, flame, cigarettes away.
d. Ventilate when charging or using in
enclosed space.

Fig. 15-1 Installing battery

NOTE:
a. Clean battery cable terminals and
apply grease to retard the formation of corrosion.
b. Connect the positive (+) terminal of
the battery and then the negative
(-) terminal of the battery.

3) Specific gravity
Indicator is provided for checking the
specific gravity and the battery condition.

4) Voltage under high discharge
Charging (or discharging) the battery
raises (or lowers) the voltage but after
stopping the charging (or discharging)
the voltage gradually varies and finally
settles at about 2 volts per cell. Therefore, to check the real condition of the
battery, it is necessary to measure the
voltage with the battery under high
discharge. A simple method is the use
of a high-discharge battery tester.
Check that the individual cell voltages
are more than 1.5 volts and the voltage
differences between the cells are within 0.1 volt when the measurements are
made for 5 seconds per cell.

3) Charging
Measuring the specific gravity of the
electrolyte in the battery will disclose
the state of charge of the battery. The
relation between the specific gravity
and the state of charge is as shown in
figure.

2) Inspection
1) External parts
Check for the existence of dirt or
cracks on the battery case, top cover,
vent plugs, and tenninal posts. If necessary, clean with water and wipe with
a dry cloth.
Apply a thin coat of grease on the
tenninal posts to prevent corrosion.
2) Electrolyte level
Check the electrolyte level in each cell.
If the level is below MIN LEVEL,
bring the level to MAX LEVEL by
pouring distilled water into the battery
cell. Do not fill beyond MAX LEVEL.

NOTE:
a. Remove all the vent plugs since

end of charging.
b. Do not bring an open flame close to
the battery at this time.
c. Prior to charging, corroded terminals should be cleaned with a brush
and common baking soda solution.

Charger

Battery
A9-005

Fig. 15-5 Charger-to-battery
connection

The battery must be charged when
indicator shows "charging necessary"
and also engine does not start.
Perform charging for 5 hours or more
with a constant current of 6A.
At the condition of full charged, the
charging current is O.5A or less.
2) Quick charging
Quick charging is a method in which
the battery is charged in a short
period of time with a relatively large
current by using a quick charger.

Since a large current flow raises electrolyte temperature, the battery is
subject to damage if the large current
is used for prolonged time. For this
reason, the quick charging must be
carried out within a current range that
will not increase the electrolyte temperature above 40°C (I 04° F).
It should be also remembered that the
quick charging is a temporary means
to bring battery voltage up to a fair
value and, as a rule, a battery should
be charged slowly with a low current.

NOTE:
a. Observe the items in NOTE in 1)
Normal charging.
b. The battery should not be charged
with lOA or more.

2. Fuse
The fuse box is located on the left side
underneath of the instrument panel.
The connection between each fuse and
main electrical units/devices is as
shown in the following illustration.
(Also refer to the wiring diagram at
the end of this manual.)

if 20 V to 26 V is measured.
d. Measure V 1 (voltage between terminals F and E) while slowly increasing the resistance of the variable
resistor, starting from O. Check
whether the voltage of V 2 changes
from below 2.0 V to 10 V -13 V
of V3 (that is, the voltage of battery 1). If no change occurs, the
regulator is faulty and must be replaced.
e. Measure V4 (voltage between center tap of variable resistor and
terminal E). With variable resistor
Rv fixed, check V4 to see whether
it is within the specified range. If

1. Ignition Coil
1) Removal and Installation
1) Disconnect the battery negative
(-) terminals.
2) Disconnect the wires from the
ignition coil.
3) Remove ignition coil.
4) To in.taU, reverse the order of
removal.

NOTE:

Be sure to connect the wires to
their proper posftions. Failure to do
so will dam,.. the unit

4) If the engine does not run due to
faulty ignition system, check the ignition system as follows:
Check for a cracked distributor
rotor or cap and corroded terminals.
Visually inspect the high tension
wire for condition. Check spark plugs
and adjust gaps as necessary. Replace
the spark plug which is not suitable for
further use.
If the above checks cannot correct
the problem, check the entire ignition
system with an oscilloscope or a circuit tester in accordance with the
troubleshooting charts at the end of
this chapter.

The spark plugs are project type,
having 14 mm (0.551 in) threads and
1.0 - 1.1 rnm (0.039 - 0.043 in) gap.

NOTE:

All spark plugs installed on an engiue,
must be of the same heat range.

NOTE:
The above torque should be only
applied to new spark plugs without
oil on their threads.
In case their threads are lubricated,
the torque should be reduced by
approximately 1/3 of the specified
torque in order to avoid their overstressing.

4)

• Carbon fouleo:
Dry fluffy carbon deposits on insulator and electrode are mostly
caused by slow speed driving in
city, weak ignition, too rich fuel
mixture, dirty air cleaner, etc.
It is advisable to replace with plugs
having hotter heat range.

Overhea ting:
White or light gray insulator with
black or gray brown spots and
bluish burnt electrodes indicate engine overheating. Moreover, the appearance results from incorrect ignition timing, loose spark plugs,
.\'fong selection of fuel, hotter range
plug, etc. It is advisable to replace
with plugs having colder heat range.

Connect the spark plug cords.

3) Inspection
I) Check the electrodes and inner
and outer porcelains of plugs, noting
the type of deposits and the degree of
electrode erosion.
• Normal
Brown to grayish-tan deposits and
slight electrode wear indicate correct spark plug heat range.

• Oil fouled:

The digital type meter processes the
car's speed, engine revolution, remaining fuel, and coolant temperature with
its microcomputer and indicates them
on the display units using fluorescent
display tubes in digits or bar graphs.
The meter also contains a trip computer that provides the driver with
information on distance travelled,
time, and remaining fuel.
The meter consists primarily of two

microcomputers: a digital computer
unit including a speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, and temperature
gauge; and a trip computer comprising
a display unit and control unit.

• Handling Cautions
1) Even when the ignition-starter
switch is turned to ACC or OFF, a
feeble current (about 20 rnA) flows in
the microcomputer memory circuit to

15-45

keep it operating all the time.
To prevent the battery from running
down, the all-time-connection is not
connected during shipment. Therefore,
it must be connected before the
vehicle is delivered to the user. Be sure
to connect the green wire (single-pole
plug) near the connections between
front and instrument panel wiring
harnesses under the instrument panel.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2) When the ignition-starter switch is
turned on for the first time after the
connection, the meter gives out a buzz
sound momentarily, and the speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, temperature gauge, trip computer, and
warning lights come on. The warning
lights go out when the engine starts.
At this time the trip computer displays
all the letters and digits of the fluorescent tubes. This is called the test
program condition. It occurs when the

power supply to memory circuit turns
on. To restore the trip computer to
the normal condition, press any of the
four item buttons of the computer.
If the green wire is not connected as in
item 1), the memory circuit power
supply turns on each time the ignitionstarter switch is turned on. Therefore,
the test program is reproduced each
time the ignition-starter switch is
turned on.

3) When the lighting switch is turned
to the first or second step, the meter
face is illuminated, and the fluorescent
display tubes are dimmed to prevent
glare. The meter face brightness is
adjustable by the illumination control
switch. If this control switch is turned
farthest counterclockwise (to the
point of Click 2), the meter illumination is the brightest and the fluorescent display tubes are undiminished in
brightness. When the lighting switch
has to be turned on in the daytime, set
the control switch to the click 2
(second click) position.

7. Cruise Control
(Option)
1) General
The cruise control automatically controls car speed and allows the car to
run at a constant speed without depressing the accelerator pedal. In operation, when the driver sets a desired
speed with the cruise control switch,
the built-in micro-computer compares
the speed set in the memory with the
actual running speed detected by feedback signals from the speedometer.
This feedback system operates the
throttle of carburetor to correct the
speed difference, thereby keeping the
car at a constant speed.

NOTE:

a. The cruise control must never be
used in the following driving conditions.
(1) When going up or coming
down a steep slope
(2) On roads with poor traction,
for example, snow-covered, icy,
or gravel roads
(3) When a strong wind is blowing
(4) In congested traffic
(5) On a road with many curves
b. Modification of this device must
never be attempted.
c. The main switch of the cruise control must always be turned off, except when in use.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2) Operation and Function

Set function

Resume function

If the set switch is turned on while running at speeds between 40~g and 140~g km/h (25~~ and
87~~ MPH), the then car speed will be set in the memory of the cruise control unit and the car will
maintain that constant speed.

• With the preset speed in the memory, if the resume switch is turned on while running at a speed
within the speed setting range, the car will accelerate up to the memorized speed and maintain
that constant speed.
• If the resume switch is kept "ON" at a speed over 40 km/h (25 MPH), acceleration will continue
(up to the limit of the engine output).
If the resume switch is turned off, the car will slow down to the memorized speed and maintain
that constant speed. (Without any speed in the memory, the system will be turned off.)

NOTE:
If the main switch is turned on, the car will accelerate by means of resume switch even without any
speed set in the memory.
If the coast switch is turned "ON" when the car is running at a constant speed, the car will decelerate. If the coast switch is turned off while running at a speed within the speed setting range, the
speed at which the car is running when the switch is turned off will be set in the memory again and
the car will maintain that constant speed.
Coast function

NOTE:
Even when no speed is set in the memory, if the main switch is on and the car is running at a speed
within the speed setting range, the then car speed can be set by releasing the sub-switch after having
turned it to the coast position.

Cancel function

The function of the cruise control will be canceled by the following operations or in the following
conditions.
*(a) When the main switch is turned to "OFF".
*(b) When the ignition-starter switch is turned to "ACC" or "OFF"
(c) Depressing the brake pedal
The brake pedal is provided with a brake switch (N.C) and stop switch (N.O). When the pedal
is depressed, the switch connections are reversed, causing the signal to be transmitted to the
cruise control unit.
(d) Depressing the clutch pedal
The clutch pedal is provided with a clutch switch (N .C). When the pedal is depressed, the
switch connections are reversed, causing the signal to be transmitted to the criuse control
unit.
(e) Shifting the select lever to ® (AT vehicle only)
This actuates the inhibitor switch (N.O) and the signal is input to the unit.
*(f) When the engine speed reaches 5,500 rpm or more
(g) When the car speed slows down to 4O~~ km/h (25~ MPH) or less
*(h) When the car speed signal varies more than ±25 km/h (± 16 MPH) per second, including the
vibration of the speedometer cable
*(i) When the car has decelerated more than 15 km/h (9 MPH) from the memorized speed
*(j) When the resume switch and set switch are operated simultaneously, or when the coast switch
and set switch are operated simultaneously
* In the operations (a), (b), (t), (h), (i), and (j), the memory will also be erased. In the others, the
cruise control will be functionally canceled temporarily but the pre-set speed will remain in the
memory.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
3) Cruise Control Unit
The cruise control unit compares the
actual car speed detected by feedback
signals from the speedometer with the
speed set in the memory memorized
when the set switch was turned on.

A signal is then transmitted according
to the difference between the two
speeds.
This signal is transmitted to the solenoid valve of the vacuum actuator

located in the engine compartment.
The movement of the actuator operates the carburetor throttle valve,
thereby keeping the car speed constant.

Clutch switch
(MT vehicle only)

The clutch switch is fitted to the
pedal bracket. When the clutch pedal
is depressed, the clutch switch is turned off and the operation of the cruise
control is canceled. However, the preset car speed will remain in the
memory of the cruise control unit.

Ii

When the cruise control operates, the
actuator pulls the lever CV through the
cable connecting the actuator to the
link ASSY. This movement causes the
lever 00 to pull the stopper CD of the
cable connecting the accelerator pedal
to the carburetor. Thus the carburetor
is controlled without depressing the
accelerator pedal.
Further, if the accelerator pedal is
depressed in this state, the cable con·
necting the accelerator pedal to the
carburetor is pulled, so that the carburetor throttle lever can be operated
regardless of the movement of the
lever 00 caused by the actuator.

1. Main switch
3.
This is a push-button switch located
on the steering column and is the main
power switch of the cruise control.
When the cruise button is depressed,
the green pilot'lamp above the button
illuminates and an electric current
flows in the cruise control unit.
2.

Sub-switch (Set lever)

Pushing the tip of the sub-switch knob
allows the set signal to be entered in
the cruise control unit. The resume
signal and coasting signal are entered,
respectively, by turning the knob in
the forward and backward directions
of the car.

Inhibitor switch
(AT vehicle only)

The inhibitor switch is attached to the
automatic transmission select lever.
When the select lever is shifted to the
"N" range, the switch turns on to
cancel the operation of the cruise
control. However, the pre-set car speed
will remain in the memory of the
cruise control unit.
