WARNING:

• Situate the vehicle on a flat and solid surface.
• Place chocks at front and back of rear wheels.

CAUTION:

• Always be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or uninstructed operations.
• Never start working until exhaust system and coolant are cool enough.
• If items or work required are not covered by the engine section, refer to the applicable sections.
• Always use the support point specified for lifting.
• Use either 2-pole lift type or separate type lift as best you can. If board-on type is used for unavoid-

able reasons, support at the rear axle jacking point with a transmission jack or similar tool before
starting work, in preparation for the backward shift of center of gravity.

• For supporting points for lifting and jacking point at rear axle, refer to 

GI-36, "Garage Jack and

Safety Stand and 2-Pole Lift"

Inspection

INFOID:0000000010282015

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

Inspection for Leaks

• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required

quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to 

MA-59, "Fluids and Lubricants"

.

• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
- Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak-

age at connection points.

- Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids includ-

ing engine oil and engine coolant.

• Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the

specified level, if necessary.

Summary of the inspection items:

*: Power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.
