STEERING WHEEL FREE PLAY CHECK
M1372001000236
1. With the engine running (hydraulic operation), set the front
wheels straight ahead.
2. Measure the play on the steering wheel circumference
before the wheels start to move when slightly moving the
steering wheel in both directions.
Limit: 30 mm (1.2 inches)
3. When the play exceeds the limit, check for the play on the
steering shaft and steering linkage connection. Correct or
replace.
4. If the free play still exceeds the limit value, set the steering
wheel straight ahead with the engine stopped. Load 5 N (1.1
pound) towards the steering wheel circumference and check
the play.
Standard value (steering wheel play with the engine
stopped): 10 mm (0.4 inch) or less
5. If the play exceeds the standard value, check the steering
gear box and check total pinion torque (Refer to

STEERING ANGLE CHECK
M1372001100266
1. Place the front wheel on a turning radius gauge and
measure the steering angle.
Standard value:
2. If the steering angle is not within the standard value, adjust
the toe-in by undoing the clip and turning the left and right tie
rod turnbuckles by the same amount (in opposite directions).
Standard value: 2.5

Required Special Tools:
• MB990326: Preload Socket
• MB991897: Ball Joint Remover
CAUTION
• Do not remove the nut from ball joint. Loosen it and use
the special tool MB991897 to avoid possible damage to
the ball joint threads.
• Hang special tool MB991897 with cord to prevent it
from falling.
1. Install special tool MB991897 as shown in the figure.

2. Turn the bolt and knob as necessary to make the jaws of
special tool MB991897 parallel, tighten the bolt by hand and
confirm that the jaws are still parallel.
NOTE: When adjusting the jaws in parallel, make sure the
knob is in the position shown in the figure.
3. Tighten the bolt with a wrench to disconnect the tie rod end.
4. Move the ball joint stud several times and install the nut on
the stud. Measure the ball joint breakaway torque with
special tool MB990326.
Standard value: 0.49
− 2.45 N⋅m (4.3 − 21.7 in-lb)
5. If the breakaway torque exceeds the standard value, replace
the tie rod end.
STATIONARY STEERING EFFORT CHECK
M1372001700246
1. With the vehicle stopped on a flat and paved surface, turn
the steering wheel to the straight ahead position.
2. Start the engine and check the engine idle speed.
Standard value:1,000
± 100 r/min
3. Attach a spring scale to the outer circumference of the
steering wheel and measure the steering force required to
turn the steering wheel from the straight ahead position to
the left and right (within a range of 1.5 turns). Also check to
be sure that there is no significant change in the required
steering effort.
Standard value:
• Steering effort: 39.2 N (8.8 pound) or less
• Fluctuation allowance: 5.9 N (1.33 pound) or less
4. If the measured value did not conform to the standard value,
refer to POWER STEERING DIAGNOSIS
to check
and adjust the steering force.
STEERING WHEEL RETURN TO CENTER CHECK
M1372001800243
Conduct a road test:
1. Make both gradual and sudden turns and check the steering
wheel return.

2. At a vehicle speed of approximately 35 km/h (22 mph), turn
the steering wheel 90 degree angle, hold a few seconds,
then release. If the steering wheel then returns 70 degree
angle or more, the return can be judged satisfactory.
NOTE: There will be a momentary feeling or "heaviness"
when the wheel is turned quickly, but this is not abnormal.
(Oil pump discharge amount is especially apt to be insuffi-
cient during idling.)
DRIVE BELT TENSION CHECK
M1372001900206
CAUTION
Perform the check after rotating the engine in the normal
direction (one revolution or more).
1. Check that the indicator mark of the auto-tensioner is
located between the marks shown as "A" on the tensioner
bracket.
2. If the mark is located out of the space "A," replace the drive
belt.
NOTE: Since the auto-tensioner is used, it is not necessary
to adjust the tension of the belt.
FLUID LEVEL CHECK
M1372002000228
1. Park the vehicle on a flat, level surface, start the engine, and
then turn the steering wheel in both directions several times
to raise the temperature of the fluid to approximately 50
−
60
°C (122 − 140°F).
2. With the engine running, turn the wheel all the way to the left
and right several times.
3. Check the fluid in the oil reservoir for foaming or milkiness.
4. Check the difference of the fluid level when the engine is
stopped, and while it is running. If the change of the fluid
level is 5 mm (0.2 inch) or more, air bleeding should be
done.
