-- Service Adiustment Procedures
4. Disconnect the high-tension cable, and then while operat-
ing the starting motor intermittently, turn the steering
wheel all the way to the left and right several times to drain
all of the fluid.
Caution
Be careful not to position the high-tension cable near
the carburetor or the delivery pipe.
5. Connect the return hoses securely, and then secure it with
the clip.
6. Fill the oil reservoir with the specified fluid up to the lower
position of the filter, and then bleed the air.
Specified fluid: MOPAR ATF PLUS (Automatic trans-
BLEEDING
1. Jack up the front wheels and support them by using a floor
stand.
2. Manually turn the oil pump pulley a few times.
3. Turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and to the
right several times.
4. Disconnect the high-tension cable, and then, while operat-
ing the starting motor intermittently, turn the steering
wheel all the way to the left and right several times (for 15
to 20 seconds).
Caution
that the level never falls below the lower position of
the filter.
2. If air bleeding is done while engine is running, the
air will be broken up and absorbed into the fluid; be
sure to do the bleeding only while cranking.
5. Connect the ignition cable, and then start the engine
(idling).
6. Turn the steering wheel to the left and right until there are
no air bubbles in the oil reservoir.
7. Confirm that the fluid is not milky, and that the level is up to
the specified position on the level gauge.
8. Confirm that there is very little change in the fluid level
when the steering wheel is turned left and right.
9. Check whether or not the change in the fluid level is within
5 mm (.2 in.) when the engine is stopped and when it is
running.
Caution
1. If the change of the fluid level is 5 mm (.2 in.) or
more, the air has not been completely bled from the
system, and thus must be bled completely.
2. If the fluid level rises suddenly after the engine is
stopped, the air has not been completely bled.
3. If air bleeding is not complete, there will be
abnormal noises from the pump and the flow-
control valve, and this condition could cause a
lessening of the life of the pump, etc.
