HOT IDLE COMPENSATOR (HIC)
Checking Hot Idle Compensator
1) Remove air intake case with hose.
2) Check temperature around HIC with thermo-
meter.
3) If temperature is below 45°C (113” F), air
should not come out of HIC when air is
blown into hose. If temperature is above
65°C (149” F), air comes out of HIC.
Replace H IC if defective.
4) After checking, install air intake case and
connect hose to intake manifold.
NOTE:
l To check HIC for operation at higher than
65°C (149°F) temperature when HIC
(bi-
metal) temperature is lower than 45°C
(113”F), warm it up with hair drier or photo
light before checking.
l
Never touch bimetal or valve in HIC.
