PGM-FI System
System Description
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)OUTPUTS
*1: USA*2: 818C1 engine*3: A,/T*4: 818C1, 818C5 engines
PGM-FI Sy3tem
The PGM-Fl system on this model is a sequential multiport fuel injection system.
Fuel lniector Timing and Duration
The ECM contains memories for the basic discharge durations at various engine speeds and manifold pressures. The
basic discharge duration, after being read out from the memory. is further modified by signals sent from various sensors
to obtain the final discharge duration.
ldle Air Control
ldle Ai. Control Valve (lAC Valve)
When the engine is cold, the Ay'C compressor is on. the transmission is in gear (Ay'T only)the brake pedal is depressed, the
P/S load is high, or the alternator is charging, the ECM controls current to the IAC Valve to maintain correct idle speed.
lgnition Timing Control
. The ECM contains memories for basic ignition timing atvarious engine speeds and manifold pressures, lgnitiontiming
is also adjusted for engine coolant temperature.
. AKnockControl System isadoptedwhich sets the ideal ignition timing for the octane n um ber of gasoline used*r,
Other Control Functions
L Starting Control
When the engine is started, the ECM provides a rich mi{ure by increasing fuel injector duration.
2. Fuel PumD Control
. When the ignition switch is initially turned on, the ECM supplies ground to the PGM-FI main relay that supplies
current to the fuel pump for two seconds to pressurize the fuel system.
. When the engine is running, the ECM supplies ground to the PGM-FI main relay that supplies current to the fuel
DUmO.
. When the engine is not running and the ignition is on. the ECM cuts ground to the PGM-FI main relay which cuts
current to the fuel oumo.

Random Misfire
1T0-500 1 a nd Fo-30ittrrousFF0304-lThB scan tool indicates Diagnostic Trouble Code {DTC) P0300 and some of
P0301 - P0304: Random misfire.
Doscription
Misfir; detection is accomplished by monitoring the crankshaft speed with the crankshaft speed fluciuation sensor which
is attached to the crankshsft.
lf misfiring strong enough to damage the catalyst is detected, the MIL will blink during iho time of its occurrence, and DTC
p0300 and some of DTCS p0301 through P0304 will be stor€d. Then, after misfire has ceased, the MIL will come on.
lf misfiring that increases emissions is detected during two consecutive driving cycles, the MIL will come on, and DTC
PO3O0 and some ot DTCS P0301 through P0304 will be stored
NOTE: lJ some of the DTCS listed below are stored at the same time as a misfire DTC, troubleshoot those DTCS first. then
troubleshoot the misfire DTC.
P0171, P0172: Fuel metering
P0505: ldle Control SYstem
P1361, P1362: TDC sensor
P1381. P1382: CYP sensor
P1508: IAC valve
Possible Cause
. Fuel pump insufficient fuel pressure. amount of flow
. Fuel line clogging, blockage, leakage
. Fuel {ilter clogging
a Fuel pressure regulator stuck open
. Distributormallunction
o lgnition coil wire open, leakage
. lgnition control module malfunction
. Valves carbon deposit
a Compression low
. IAC valve malfunction
. Fast idle thermo valve malfunction
o Fuel does not meet Owner's Manual spec., lackotfu€l
. VTEC system malfunction
Troubleshooting
By test-driving, determine the conditions during which misfire occurs. Depending on these conditions, test in the order
described in the table below.

Doscription
Misfire detection is accomplished by monitoring the crsnkshaft speed with the crankshaft speed fluctuation sensor whichis attached to the crankshaft.
lf misfiring strong enough to damage the catalyst is detected, the MIL will blink during the time of its occurrence, and DTCP0301, P0302, P0303 or P0304 will be stored.
