Oil Pump: Testing and Inspection

INSPECTION








1. CHECK OIL QUALITY
Check the oil for deterioration, entry of water, discoloring or thinning.
If oil quality is visibly poor, replace the oil.

Oil grade (2JZ-GE):
API grade SH Energy-Conserving II or SJ, Energy Conserving or ILSAC multigrade engine oil.
SAE 5W-30 is the best choice for your vehicle, for good fuel economy, and good starting in cold weather.
Oil grade (2JZ-GTE):
API grade SH Energy-Conserving II or SJ, Energy-Conserving or ILSAC multigrade engine oil.
Recommended viscosity is as shown in the illustration.

2. CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL
After warming up the engine and then 5 minutes after the engine stop, oil level should be between the low level and full level marks on the dipstick.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to full level mark.

NOTICE: Do not fill with engine oil above the full level mark.

3. REMOVE ENGINE UNDER COVER
4. 2JZ-GTE: DISCONNECT POWER STEERING OIL RESERVOIR WITHOUT DISCONNECTING HOSES
a. Disconnect the 2 clamps of the engine wire protector from the bracket





b. Remove the 3 bolts and disconnect the reservoir.





5. REMOVE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH, AND INSTALL OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
a. Disconnect the oil pressure switch connector.
b. Using Special Service Tool (SST), remove the oil pressure switch
SST 09810 - 30010
c. Install an oil pressure gauge.
6. WARM UP ENGINE
Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating temperature.





7. CHECK OIL PRESSURE

Oil pressure:
At idle 49 kPa (7 psi) or more
At 3,000 rpm 324 kPa (47 psi) or more

8. REMOVE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE AND REINSTALL OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
a. Remove the oil pressure gauge.
b. Tighten the union bolt.

Torque: 90 Nm (66 ft. lbs.)





c. Apply adhesive to 2 or 3 threads of the oil pressure switch.
Adhesive: Part No. 08833 - 00080, THREE BOND 1344, LOCTITE 242 or equivalent

d. Using SST, install the oil pressure switch.
SST 09810 - 30010

Torque: 15 Nm (11 ft. lbs.)

e. Connect the oil pressure switch connector.
9. DISCONNECT POWER STEERING OIL RESERVOIR WITH HOSES
10. START ENGINE AND CHECK FOR LEAKS
11. REINSTALL ENGINE UNDER COVER
