Teknikimobil.com – Engine problems are an important problem for almost all four-wheeled lovers. This is no exception for Toyota Kijang Super lovers . The Kijang Super machine is a 5K machine. Machine maintenance is actually not that difficult. Of course, if the problem is not a major problem, such as a car experiencing engine overheating, for example. Normal maintenance can be done by almost anyone. Therefore, we will try to cover the work of maintaining the Kijang Super engine or Kijang 5K engine in 6 steps for maintaining the Kijang Super engine. The following is the description.
Kijang Super 5K Engine Maintenance Steps
There are six steps to properly maintain a Kijang Super car engine.
COOLING SYSTEM
The first is cooling system maintenance. The following are things that must be done to maintain the cooling system.
- Cooling water height up to the top line (full) – How to check the radiator water .
- The quality of the radiator coolant water is clean without impurities that can cause engine heat.
- Checking for radiator water leaks is like paying attention to where the radiator water is pooling under the car . If it turns out there is a leak from the cooling system, please repair it immediately.
- Pay attention to the amount or capacity of radiator water. The radiator water capacity is 6.5 liters.
- If you are more careful, pay attention to the opening pressure of the radiator cap valve
– Standard 0.75 – 1.05 kg/cm2 – Limit 0.6 kg/cm2.
FAN BELT
The second step is to pay attention to the fan belt or often referred to as the V-belt. Here are some of them:
- Pay attention to the fan belt tension between the water pump – Alternator
– New fan belt 5 – 7 mm – Used fan belt 7 – 11 mm - Note the fan tension between the crankshaft – A/C compressor
– New fan belt 9 – 12 mm – Old (used) fan belt 12 – 16 mm Fan belt deflection at 10 kg (22 lb)
LUBRICATION SYSTEM
The next step in Kijang Super engine maintenance is the engine lubrication system . The following are the parts that need attention.
- Checking the lubricant (oil) level to the top line (full) – Example of how to change engine oil
- Lubricant quality check.
- Refilling API service SE , SAE 20 – 40 W
– Dry filling with 3.7 liter oil filter – Drain and refill with 3.5 liter oil filter – Drain and refill without replacing 3.0 liter oil filter
BATTERY
The next maintenance step is car battery maintenance. Here’s what you need to pay attention to.
- The specific gravity of the electrolyte is 1.25 – 1.27 at 20 degrees Celsius.
- Check battery electrolyte level until top line (full)
- If there is a problem then you need to replace it. Replacing it yourself is not a problem, the important thing is to replace the car battery properly and correctly.
IGNITION SYSTEM
The sixth step is to pay attention to things related to the car’s ignition system . The following are important things that need special attention.
- First is the ignition coil. Important things that need to be in the coil:
– Resistor: External resistor resistance 1.1 – 1.3 Ω Internal resistor resistance 0.9 – 1.2 Ω– Ignition coil:· Primary coil resistance: Without internal resistor 1.3 – 1.6 Ω and with internal resistor 1.5 – 1.9 Ω· Secondary coil resistance: Without internal resistor 10.7 – 14.5 kΩ and with internal resistor 13.7 – 18.5 kΩ· Insulation resistance between terminal (+) and coil holder. Infinity. - The second check is for high voltage cables . High voltage cable Less than 25 kΩ/cable.
- The next inspection is the distributor inspection . The important things about the distributor are:
– Good distributor cover
– Rubber block gap 0.4 – 0.5 mm
– Air gap 0.2 – 0.4 mm – Dwell angle 52 degrees ± 6 degrees – Ignition time 5 degrees before TDC/idling @ max. 900 rpm. - Next is checking the spark plugs . Clean spark plugs with a spark plug gap of 0.7 – 1.0 mm.
- If you have a compression pressure tool , this is an important part to pay attention to. Things to pay attention to when checking compression pressure:
– Standard 12.6 kg/cm2– Limit 9.5 kg/cm2– Pressure difference between cylinders Less than 1.0 kg/cm2.
FUEL SYSTEM
Finally, check the fuel system. The following are important things about the fuel system:
- Clean and replace the air filter. Do it properly how to replace the car air filter .
- Clean and replace the fuel filter.
- Carburetor maintenance.
- Check valve clearance . Valve gap specifications
– Exhaust 0.20 mm – Suction 0.30 mm.
If you don’t dare to do it yourself, it’s best to do it with the assistance of a mechanic or take it to a repair shop if you’re really worried.
