Reservoir Tank
POWER ASSISTED SYSTEM (POWER STEERING)
8. Reservoir Tank
A: REMOVAL
1) Drain fluid from the reservoir tank.
2) Disconnect the hose from reservoir tank.
CAUTION:
To prevent foreign matter from entering the
hose and pipe, cover the open ends of them
with clean cloth.
3) Remove the reservoir tank from the body.
B: INSTALLATION
1) Install the reservoir tank to the body.
Tightening torque:
13 N·m (1.3 kgf-m, 9.6 ft-lb)
2) Connect the hose to the reservoir tank.
3) Replenish power steering fluid up to the speci-
fied level. <Ref. to PS-51, INSPECTION, Power
C: INSPECTION
Check the reservoir tank for cracks, breakage or
damage. If a failure is found, replace the reservoir
tank.

Power Steering Fluid
POWER ASSISTED SYSTEM (POWER STEERING)
9. Power Steering Fluid
A: SPECIFICATION
B: INSPECTION
1) Check the power steering fluid for deterioration
or contamination. If the fluid is highly deteriorated
or contaminated, drain it and refill with new fluid.
2) Check the joints and units for oil leakage. If any
oil leaks are found, repair or replace the applicable
part.
3) Inspect the fluid level of reservoir tank with vehi-
cle on level surface and engine stopped.
If the level is at “MIN.” point or below, add fluid to
keep the level in the specified range of the indica-
tor. If at “MAX”. point or above, drain fluid by using
a syringe or the like.
(1) Check at power steering fluid temperature
20°C (68°F); read the fluid level on the “COLD”
side.
(2) Check at power steering fluid temperature
80°C (176°F); read the fluid level on the “HOT”
side.
C: REPLACEMENT
1) Lift up the vehicle.
2) Remove the under cover. <Ref. to EI-28, RE-
3) Remove the crossmember support.
4) Remove the pipe joint in the center of gearbox,
and connect the vinyl hose to the pipe and joint.
Wipe fluid off while turning the steering wheel.
5) Add the specified fluid to reservoir tank at “MAX”
level.
6) Continue to turn the steering wheel slowly from
lock to lock until the bubbles stop appearing on oil
surface while keeping the fluid at the level in the
step 4).
7) If the steering wheel is turned in a low fluid level
condition, air will be sucked into the pipe. If air has
entered, leave it for about half an hour and then re-
peat step 5) again.
8) Start the engine and let it idle.
9) Continue to turn the steering wheel slowly from
lock to lock again until the bubbles stop appearing
on oil surface, while keeping the fluid at the level in
step 4).
Normally bubbles will stop appearing after turning
the steering wheel from lock to lock three times.
10) In case bubbles do not stop appearing in the
tank, leave it for about half an hour and then repeat
from step 4) again.
11) Lower the vehicle, and then idle the engine.
12) Continue to turn the steering wheel from lock to
lock until the bubbles stop appearing and change of
the fluid level is within 3 mm (0.12 in).
13) In case the following happens, leave it about
half an hour and then perform step 8) to 11) again.
(1) The fluid level changes by 3 mm (0.12 in) or
more.
(2) Bubbles remain on the upper surface of the
fluid.
(3) Grinding noise is generated from oil pump.
14) Check the fluid leakage after turning steering
wheel from lock to lock with engine running.

General Diagnostic Table
POWER ASSISTED SYSTEM (POWER STEERING)
10.General Diagnostic Table
A: INSPECTION
*
1 If the tires or wheels are wider than standard, the load to power steering system is increased. Accordingly, in a condition, for
example before fluid warms-up, relief valve may work before reaching maximum turning angle. In this case, steering effort may
be heavy. When the measured hydraulic pressure is normal, there is no abnormal thing.
*
2 In cold weather, steering effort may be heavy due to increased flow resistance of cold fluid. After warming-up engine, turn the
steering wheel from stop to stop several times to warm up fluid. If steering effort reduces normally, function is normal.
*
3 In cold weather or with insufficient warm up of the engine, steering effort may be heavy due to excessive drop of idling when
turning the steering wheel. In this case, start the vehicle with increasing engine speed than usual. If steering effort reduces nor-
mally, function is normal.
Trouble
Possible cause
Corrective action
• Steering effort is heavy in
all ranges.
• Steering effort is heavy at
stand still.
• Steering wheel vibrates
when turning.
1. Pulley belt
• Unequal length of pulley belts
• Contact with oil or grease
• Looseness or damage of the pulley belt
• Poor uniformity of the pulley belt cross section
• Pulley belt touches to pulley bottom
• Poor revolution of pulleys (except oil pump pulley)
• Poor revolution of oil pump pulley
Adjust or replace the
faulty parts.
2. Tire and wheel
• Improper tire out of specifications
