1. Review the system operations to familiarise yourself with the system functions.
2. Perform an engine management Diagnostic System Check.

1. Inspect the vehicle for aftermarket accessories which may adversely affect engine operation.
2. Inspect the easily accessible or visible system components for obvious signs of damage or conditions that may cause the symptom.
3. Check the engine lubrication system for the following:
• correct oil level,
• correct lubricant viscosity,
• correct oil filter application, and
• contaminated or burnt oil.
4. Confirm the exact operating conditions under which the fault occurs. Note factors such as:
• engine speed (rpm),
• ambient temperature,
• engine temperature,
• engine warm-up time, and
• vehicle road speed.
5. Compare the engine sounds, if applicable, to a known good engine, and ensure you are not trying to diagnose a normal operating condition.

1. Ensure that the vehicle battery is in good condition, and fully charged.
2. Operate the vehicle until the engine is at normal operating temperature.
3. Disconnect the ignition wires from the spark plug.
4. Disconnect the fuel injector electrical connector.
5. Remove all of the spark plugs.

6. Block the throttle linkage wide open.
7. Install the engine cylinder compression gage to the cylinder being tested.
8. Using the vehicle starter motor, rotate, or crank the engine for 4 compression strokes, or puffs, for the cylinder being tested. If the engine rotates for more than 4 compression strokes, test the cylinder again.
9. Record the compression reading.
10. Remove the engine cylinder compression gage from the cylinder being tested.
11. Repeat steps 8-11 for each additional cylinder. All cylinders must be tested to obtain valid test results.
12. If any cylinders have low compression, inject approximately 15 ml of engine oil into the cylinder through the spark plug hole.
13. Repeat steps 8-11 for all low compression cylinders.
14. The minimum compression in any one cylinder should not be less than 70 percent of the highest cylinder. No cylinder should read less than 690 kpa (100 psi). For example, if the highest pressure in any one cylinder is 1035 kPa (150 psi), the lowest allowable pressure for any other cylinder would be 725 kPa (105 psi). Multiply the highest cylinder pressure by 70 percent, 1035 kPa x 70 percent = 725 kPa (150 psi x 70 percent = 105 psi), in order to determine the lowest allowable pressure in any other cylinder.
• Normal : The compression builds up quickly and evenly to the specified compression.
• Piston rings leaking : Compression is low on the first compression stroke. The compression builds up on the following strokes, but does not reach normal. Compression improves considerably when you add oil.
• Valves leaking : Compression is low on the first compression stroke. The compression does not build up on the following strokes, and does not reach normal. Compression does not improve much, if at all, when you add oil.
• Head gasket leaking : Compression is low on the first stroke. The compression does not build up on the following strokes, and does not reach normal. Compression does not improve much, if at all, when you add oil. Adjacent cylinders have the same, or similar, low compression readings.

15. If one or more cylinders fail to meet the minimum specified compression, repair or replace all damaged or worn components and test the engine again.

1. With the vehicle on a level surface, allow adequate drain down time, 2-3 minutes, and measure for a low engine oil level. Add the recommended grade engine oil, and fill the crankcase until the oil level measures FULL on the oil level indicator.
2. Operate the engine and verify low or no oil pressure on the vehicle oil pressure gage or the oil indicator light. Listen for a noisy valve train or a knocking noise.
3. Inspect for the following :
• Engine oil diluted by moisture or unburned fuel mixtures
• Improper engine oil viscosity for the expected temperature
• Incorrect or faulty oil pressure gage sensor
• Incorrect or faulty oil pressure gage
• Plugged oil filter
• Malfunctioning oil filter bypass valve

4. Remove the oil pressure switch from the oil filter adapter.

1. Install the oil pressure gage adapter and the oil pressure gauge at the place of the oil pressure switch.
2. Start the engine and then allow the engine to reach normal operation temperature.
3. Measure the engine oil pressure at idle speed.
4. The minimum oil pressure should be 69 kPa (10.00 psi) at idle and 138 kpa (20.01 psi) at 2,000 rpm.

5. If the engine oil pressure is below minimum specifications, inspect the engine for one or more of the following :
• Oil pump worn or dirty
• Malfunctioning oil pump pressure relief valve
• Oil pump screen loose, plugged, or damaged
• Excessive bearing clearance
• Cracked, porous or restricted oil galleries
• Engine block oil gallery plugs missing or incorrectly installed
• Broken valve lifters
• Loose oil filter adapter
6. After checking the oil pressure, remove the oil pressure gauge and adapter and then install the oil pressure switch to 13 N•m (115 lb-in).
7. Check the oil level. Add oil until it reaches the MAX mark if needed.

4. This test is to verify that an accessory drive component(s) does not have a seized bearing. With the belt removed test the bearings in the accessory drive component(s) for smooth operation. Also test the accessory drive components with the engine operating by varying the load on the accessory drive component(s) to verify that the component(s) is operating properly.
5. This test is to verify that the drive belt tensioner is operating properly. If the drive belt tensioner is not operating properly, proper belt tension may not be achieved to keep the drive belt from slipping which could cause a squealing noise.
6. This test is to verify that the drive belt is not too long, which would prevent the drive belt tensioner from operating properly. Also if the incorrect length drive belt was installed, it may not be routed correctly and may be turning an accessory drive component in the incorrect direction.
7. Misalignment of the accessory drive pulley(s) may be caused from improper mounting or incorrect installation of a accessory drive component, or the pulley may be bent inward or outward from a previous repair. Test for a misaligned pulley using a straight edge in the pulley grooves across two or three pulleys. If a misaligned pulley is found, refer to that accessory drive component for the proper removal and installation procedure for that pulley.
8. Inspect the accessory drive pulley(s) to verify that they are the correct diameter or width. Using a known good vehicle, compare the accessory drive pulleys.
