valves have been adjusted correctly, tighten lock nut firmly to
secure the adjustment.

CHECKING AND ADJUSTING FAN BELT
With the engine switched off and the hood up, push the
belt gently downward. You should be able to depress it about
10 mm (1/2 in) midway between fan pulley and alternator
pulley by a force of 10 kg (22 lb). If the fan belt has become
slack through wear, loosen the fixing and adjusting bolts, and
move the alternator away from the engine. Thus will eliminate
the slack. Tighten the bolts again, and make sure that the belt
has been tightened correctly. If tightened excessively it will
wear rapidly and also overload the water pump and alternator
bearings.

CHECKING ENGINE ATTACHING PARTS
Check engine mounting, carburetor, alternator, starter, fuel
pump and distributor for looseness. If necessary, tighten.
Tightening torque:
Engine mounting center
bracket-to-body bolt
7.5 to 9.5 kg-m
(54 to 69 ft-lb)

4.0 to 5.0 kg-m
(29 to 36 ft-lb)

CHECKING ENGINE COMPRESSION
Note: If this test is to be performed. it should be done
when all plugs are removed for service during basic
tune-up procedure.
Unless check is made for worn rings or for the cause of low
speed, compression check should not be necessary.
Fig. 4-4. Testing Compression
Pressure.
Test compression with engine warm, all spark plugs
removed and throttle and choke opened. No cylinder
compression should be less than 80% of highest cylinders.
Excessive variation between cylinders, accompanied by low
speed missing of the cylinder or cylinders which are low,
usually indicates a valve not properly seating or a broken
piston ring. Low pressures, even though uniform, may indicate
worn rings. This may be accompanied by excessive oil
consumption.
Test conclusion
If one or more cylinders read low, inject about one
tablespoon of engine oil on top of the pistons with low reading
cylinders through the spark plug port. Repeat compression
check on these cylinders.
(1)
If compression improves considerably, piston rings
are faulty.
(2)
If compression does not improve, valves are sticking
or not seating properly.
(3)
If two adjacent cylinders indicate low compression
and injecting oil on pistons does not increase compression,
the cause may be a cylinder head gasket leak between the
cylinders.
Engine oil and coolant in cylinder could result from this
problem.
