4) Install special tools (Oil pressure gauge) to vacated threaded
hole.
Special tool
(A): 09915-77311
(B): 09915-77420
(C): 09915-77430
5) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating tempera-
ture.
6) After warming up, measure oil pressure.
Oil pressure specification:
100 – 140 kPa (1.0 – 1.4 kg/cm
2
, 14.2 – 20.0 psi) at idle
speed
330 – 370 kPa (3.3 – 3.7 kg/cm
2
, 46.9 – 52.5 psi) at 3,000 r/
min
7) Stop engine and remove oil pressure gauge and attachment.
8) Reinstall oil pressure switch (1), and tighten switch to speci-
fied torque.
Tightening torque
Oil pressure switch (a): 35 N·m (3.5 kg-m, 25.5 lb-ft)
9) Connect oil pressure switch coupler (2).
10) Install degassing tank to its bracket.
11) Start engine and check oil pressure switch for oil leakage.
If oil leakage is found, repair it.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to make special tool touch exhaust mani-
