Scheme 5: INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM MANIFOLD VACUUM INSPECTION
  1. Verify that the intake-air system related parts and hoses are securely installed.
  2. Remove the intake manifold blind cap and install the vacuum gauge.
  3. Warm up the engine.
  4. Measure intake manifold vacuum while no load and idling. Intake manifold vacuum MT: -66.7-56.0 kPa {-500.2-420.1 mmHg, -19.6-16.6 inHg AT: -67.3-53.4 kPa {-504.7-400.6 mmHg, -19.8-15.8 inHg If not within the specification, perform the following inspection: Compression pressure (See «COMPRESSION INSPECTION»(ref-178318-S20625522812005061400000) .)

  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  2. Remove the APV motor.
  3. Apply 12 V with a current of 0.9-1.9 A to terminal B or D and verify that the gear moves. If there is no malfunction, carry out the «CIRCUIT OPEN/SHORT INSPECTION»(ref-178322-S04882002082005061400000) . If there is any malfunction, replace the APV motor. (See «INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-178322-S25288823672005061400000) .)
