GENERAL
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL FREE PLAY
1. Start the engine with the steering wheel in the straight ahead position, apply a force of 5 N (1.1 lb) to the steering
wheel in the peripheral direction.
2. Measure the play at the circumference of the steering wheel.

Standard value :
Steering wheel free play : 0 ~ 30 mm (0 ~ 1.1 in)

3. If the play exceeds the standard value, inspect the connection between the steering shaft and tie rod ends.
CHECKING STEERING ANGLE
 Page 5 of 42
1. Place the front wheel on a turning radius gauge and measure the steering angle.

Standard value :
Wheel angle
Inner wheel : 36.77° ± 1°30'
Outer wheel : 31.8°

2. If the measured value is not within the standard value, adjust the linkage.

cardiagn.com
CHECKING THE TIE ROD END BALL JOINT STARTING TORQUE
1. Disconnect the tie rod(A) and knuckle(B) by using the special tool (09568-34000).

2. Shake the ball joint stud several times to check for looseness.
3. Mount the nuts on the ball joint, and then measure the ball joint starting torque.

Standard value :
0.5 ~ 2.5 Nm (0.05 ~ 0.25 kgf·m, 0.36~1.78 lb-ft)

4. If the starting torque exceeds the upper limit of the standard value, replace the tie rod end.
5. Even if the starting torque is below the lower limit of the standard value, check the play of the ball joint and
replace if nece ssary.
 Page 6 of 42
CHECKING STATIONARY STEERING EFFORT
1. Place the vehicle on a level surface and place the steering wheel in the straight ahead position.
2. Increase the engine speed to 1000 ± 100 rpm.

After checking, reset the engine speed to the standard value (idling
speed).
3. Measure the turning force with a spring scale(A) by turning the steering wheel(B) clockwise and
counterclockwise one and a quarter turns.

Standard value :
Stationary steering effort :
29 N (3.0 kg, 6.5lbs) or less

cardiagn.com
4. Check that there is no sudden change of force while turning the steering wheel.
5. If the stationary steering effort is excessive, check and adjust the following points.
(1) Damage or cracks on the dust cover of the lower arm ball joint and tie rod end.
(2) Pinion preload of the steering gear box and starting torque of the tie rod end ball joint.
(3) Starting torque of the ball joint.
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL RETURN
1. The force required to turn the steering wheel and the wheel return should be the same for both left and right in
case of moderate or sharp turns.
2. When the steering wheel is turned 90° and held for a couple of seconds while the vehicle is being driven at
35kph, the steering wheel should return 70° or more.

If the steering wheel is turned very quickly, steering may be momentarily difficult. This is not a malfunction
because the oil pump output will be somewhatdecreased.
 Page 7 of 42
CHECKING POWER STEERING BELT TENSION
1. Press the V belt, applying a pressure of 98N (10kg, 22lb) at the specified point and measure the deflection to
confirm that it is within the standardvalue.

Standard value :
New belt : 8.8 ~ 11.0 mm
Used belt : 12.5 ~ 14.3 mm

cardiagn.com
2. If the belt deflection is beyond the standard value, adjust the belt tension as follows.
(1) Loosen the adjusting bolt(A) and the bolt hinged(B).

(2) Put a bar(A) or equivalent, between the bracket(B) and the oil pump(C) and adjust the tension so that the
belt deflection is within the standard value.

(3) Tighten the adjusting bolt(A) and the bolt hinged(B).

Tightening torque :
35 ~ 50 Nm (3.5 ~ 5.0 kgf·m, 25.3 ~ 37 lb-ft)
 Page 8 of 42
(4) Check the belt deflection and adjust it again if necessary.

After turning the V belt in the no rmal rotation direction more than once, recheck the belt deflection.

CHECKING POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL

1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Start the engine. With the vehicle kept stationary, turn the steering wheel several times continuously to raise the
fluid temperature to 50 - 60°C(122 to 140°F).
3. With the engine at idle, turn the steering wheel fully clockwise and counterclockwise several times.
4. Make sure there is no foaming or cloudiness in the reservoir fluid.
5. Stop the engine to check for any difference in fluid level between a stationary and a running engine.

1. If the fluid level varies 5 mm (0.2 in) or more, bleed the system again.
2. If the fluid level suddenly rises after stopping the engine, further bleeding is required.
3. Incomplete bleeding will produce a chattering sound in the pump and noise in the flow control valve,
and lead to decreased durability of the pump.

cardiagn.com
REPLACING POWER STEERING FLUID
1. Jack up the front wheels of the car and support them with jackstands.
2. Disconnect the return hose from the oil reservoir and plug the oil reservoir.
3. Connect a hose to the disconnected return hose, and drain the oil into a container.
4. Disconnect the high-tension cables and ignition coils.
While operating the starter motor intermittently, turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and then to the right
several times to drain the fluid.
5. Connect the return hose and fix it with a cl ip.
6. Fill the power steering fluid reservoir with the specified fluid.

PSF-3 : 0.8~0.9 lit.

7. Start the engine.

Check for fluid leaks from the hose, then stop the engine.
8. Pour the fluid into the bottom of the oil filter in the power steering fluid reservoir.
9. Bleed the air.
AIR BLEEDING
1. Fill the power steering fluid reservoir up to the "MAX" position with specified fluid.
2. Jack up the front wheels.
 Page 9 of 42
3. Disconnect the ignition coil high tension cable, and then, while operating the starter motor intermittently (for 15 to
20 seconds), turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and then to the right five or six times.

1. When bleeding fluid, replenish with the fluid so that the level does not fall below the bottom of the filter.
2. Perform air bleeding only while cranking to avoid excessive fluid aeration.

4. Connect the high tension cable , and then start the engine (idling).
5. Turn the steering wheel to the left and then to the right, until there are no air bubbles in the oil reservoir.

Do not hold the steering wheel turned all the way to either side for more than ten seconds.
6. Confirm that the fluid is not milky and that the level is between "MAX" and "MIN" mark on the reservoir.
7. Check that there is a little change in the fluid level when the steering wheel is turned left and right.

1) If the fluid level varies 5mm (0.2 in.) or more, bleed the system again.
2) If the fluid level suddenly rises after stopping the engine, further bleeding is required.

cardiagn.com
3) Incomplete bleeding will produce a chattering sound in the pump and noise in the flow control valve,
and lead to decreased durability of the pump.

OIL PUMP PRESSURE TEST

1. Disconnect the pressure hose(B) from the pump(A). Connect the special tool between the pump and the pressure
hose as illustrated.
2. Bleed the air, and then start the engine and turn the steering wheel several times, measure the fluid temperature by
Temperature gauge so that the fluid temperature can rise to approximately 50°C (122°F).
3. Increase the engine speed to 1,000 rpm.
4. Close the shut-off valve of the special tool and measure the fluid pressure to confirm that it is within the standard
value range.

Standard value :
Oil pump pressure
Relief pressure :
2.0(I4), 2.7(V6) :
8.6 ~ 9.1 MPa (88 ~ 93 kg.cm², 1251 ~ 1322 psi)

Do not keep the shut-off valve on the pressure gauge closed for more than ten seconds.
 Page 10 of 42
5. Remove the special tools, and tighten the pressure hose(B) against the oil pump (A) using the specified torque.

Tightening torque :
55 ~ 65 Nm (5.5 ~ 6.5 kgf·m, 39.7 ~ 47 lb-ft)

cardiagn.com
6. Air bleed the system. (see page ST-10)

Noise Hissing Noise in Steering Gear
There is some noise with all power steering systems. One of the most common is
a hissing sound when the steering wheel is turned and the car is not moving. This
noise will be most evident when turning the wheel while the brakes are being
applied. There is no relationship between this noise and steering performance. Do
not replace the valve unless the "hissing" noise becomes extreme. A replaced
valve will also make a slight noise, and is not always a solution for the condition
