Lexus SC300 / Lexus SC400. Manual — part 354
COMPRESSION CHECK
EG21U–02
HINT: If there is lack of power, excessive oil consumption or
poor fuel economy, measure the compression pressure.
1.
WARM UP AND STOP ENGINE
Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating tempera-
ture.
2. DISCONNECT
NEGATIVE
TERMINAL
CABLE
FROM
BATTERY
CAUTION: Work must be started after 90 seconds from
the time the ignition switch is turned to the “LOCK” posi-
tion and the negative (–) terminal cable is disconnected
from the battery.
3.
REMOVE INTAKE AIR CONNECTOR
(a) Disconnect the following hoses:
(1) Air hose from IAC valve
(2) Air
hose (from air control valve on PS pump) from intake
air connector
(b) Remove the bolt holding the intake air connector to the
cylinder head cover.
(c) Remove the 2 hose clamps.
(d) Disconnect the intake air connector from the throttle body
and air cleaner hose, and remove the intake air connector.
4.
REMOVE UPPER HIGH–TENSION CORD COVER
(a) Remove the 2 bolts.
(b) Disconnect
the front side claw groove of the upper cord cover
from the claw of lower cord cover, and remove the upper cord
cover.

7.
REMOVE VSV FOR EVAP SYSTEM
Remove the 2 bolts, and disconnect the VSV from the cylin-
der head cover and timing belt cover.
8.
REMOVE RH NO.3 TIMING BELT COVER
Remove the 3 bolts, timing belt cover and 3 gaskets.

10. DISCONNECT COLD START INJECTOR CONNECTOR
11. DISCONNECT RH CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
CONNECTOR
(a) Disconnect the connector from the ignition coil bracket.
(b) Disconnect the camshaft position sensor connector.
12. DISCONNECT LH CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
CONNECTOR
13. DISCONNECT HIGH–TENSION CORDS FROM SPARK
PLUGS
Disconnect the high–tension cords at the rubber boot. Do not
pull on the cords.
NOTICE: Pulling on or bending the cords may damage the con-
ductor inside.
14. REMOVE SPARK
PLUGS
Using a 16 mm plug wrench, remove the 8 spark plugs.

15. CHECK CYLINDER COMPRESSION PRESSURE
(a) Reconnect the battery negative (–) cable.
(b) Insert a compression gauge into the spark plug hole.
(c) Fully open the throttle.
(d) While cranking the engine, measure the compression
pressure.
HINT: Always use a fully charged battery to obtain engine
speed of 250 rpm or more.
(e) Repeat steps (b) through (d) for each cylinder.
NOTICE: This measurement must be done in as short a
time as possible.
Compression pressure:
1,226 kPa (12.5 kgf/cm
2
, 178 psi) or more
Minimum pressure:
981 kPa (10.0 kgf/cm
2,
142 psi)
Difference between each cylinder:
98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2
, 14 psi) or less
(f) If the cylinder compression in one or more cylinders is low,
pour a small amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the
spark plug hole and repeat steps (b) through (d) for cylinders
with low compression.
•
If adding oil helps the compression, it is likely that the
piston rings and/or cylinder bore are worn or damage.
•
If pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or seating
is improper, or there may be leakage past the gasket.
(g) Disconnect the battery negative (–) cable.
16. REINSTALL
SPARK
PLUGS
Using a 16 mm plug wrench, install the 8 spark plugs.

17. RECONNECT HIGH–TENSION CORDS TO SPARK
PLUGS
18. RECONNECT RH CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
CONNECTOR
(a) Connect the camshaft position sensor connector.
(b) Install the camshaft position sensor connector to the ignition
coil bracket.
