- Start the engine.
- Depress the brake pedal with a force of 200 N {20.4 kgf, 45.0 lbf}.
- Stop the engine when the vacuum gauge reading reaches 68 kPa {510 mmHg, 20 inHg} with the brake pedal depressed.
- With the engine off, observe the vacuum gauge for 15 s.
- If the gauge has dropped 3.3 kPa {25 mmHg, 0.97 inHg} or less, the unit is normal.
