Repair procedures Removal 1.Disconnect the battery negative terminal.2.Remove the cylinder head cover. (Refer to Cylinder Head Assembly - "Cylinder Head Cover")3.
Repair procedures Removal • Use Fender cover to avoid damaging painted surfaces.• To avoid damaging the cylinder head, wait until the engine coolant temperature drops below normal temperature before removing it.
DescriptionSystem OverviewThe System offers the following features:– Human / machine interface through a 1-stage button, for terminal switching and engine start.– Control of external relays for ACC / IGN1 / IGN2 terminal switching and STARTER, without use of mechanical ignition switch.
Repair procedures Oil Specification1.The HFC-134a system requires synthetic (PAG) compressor oil whereas the R-12 system requires mineral compressor oil. The two oils must never be mixed.2.Compressor (PAG) oil varies according to compressor model. Be sure to use oil specified for the model of compressor.
