Leakage of Injector
Apply pressure SL engine: 14,715 kPa (150 kg/cm

,
2,133
psi), HA and TF engines: 1,962 kPa (20 kg/cm
2
,
284 psi) low-
er than the specified injection pressure and see if the fuel leaks
from the nozzle injection hole.
If the fuel leaks, it is necessary to disassemble, wash and
recheck the nozzle or replace it.
Atomizing Condition
1. Connect the nozzle on the nozzle tester.
2. Air bleed by operating the nozzle tester handle several times.
3. Keeping the pressure gauge of the nozzle tester in the non-
functioning condition, quickly lower the handle (lower the
handle as quickly as possible so that a pulsating whistling
sound can be heard). Repeat this operation several times
and check the atomizing condition.
4. Make sure that the fuel is atomized uniformly and properly.
5. Make sure that the injection angle and direction are normal.
6. If the atomizing condition is incorrect,
it
is necessary to dis-
assemble, wash and recheck the nozzle, or to replace it.
INSPECTION OF BATTERY
1 . Check for corrosion on the terminals and for loose cable
connections.
2. Check the electrolyte level.
If the level is low, add distilled water to the "UPPER LEV-
EL" mark.
3. Check the specific gravity with a hydrometer. If the specif-
ic gravity reading is 1.23 or less, recharge the battery.
