  6. Release parking brake lever, set transfer in "2H" and M/T in "1st" or A/T in "L".
    WARNING: Make sure that transfer is set to "2H" range position for this check. If it is set to "4H" or "4L" position, front and rear wheels turn at high speed and a very dangerous situation may occur.
  7. Also check that vacuum is felt when engine speed is increased to higher than about 1,500 RPM and keep it for 3 min. or more. If check result is not described in Steps  5 and 7), check EVAP canister purge valve, wire harness and vacuum passage.
