The programmed fuel injection (PGM-FI) system is a
sequential multiport fuel injection system.
When the ECM/PCM receives a demand for cooling
from the A/C system, it delays the compressor from
being energized, and enriches the mixture to assure
smooth transition to the A/C mode.
The A/F sensor operates over a wide air/fuel range. The
A/F sensor is installed upstream of the TWC, and sends
signals to the ECM/PCM which varies the duration of
fuel injection accordingly.
The BARO sensor is inside the ECM/PCM. It converts
atmospheric pressure into a voltage signal that
modifies the basic duration of the fuel injection
discharge.
CMP sensor B detects the position of the No. 1 cylinder
as a reference for sequential fuel injection to each
cylinder. The CKP sensor detects crankshaft speed and is used by
the ECM/PCM to determine the ignition timing, timing
for the fuel injection of each cylinder, and engine
misfire detection.
ECT sensors 1 and 2 are temperature dependent
resistors (thermistors). The resistance decreases as the
engine coolant temperature increases.
The ECM/PCM contains the memory for basic ignition
timing at various engine speeds and manifold absolute
pressures. It also adjusts the timing according to engine
coolant temperature and intake air temperature.
The ECM/PCM contains the memory for basic discharge
duration 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.
By monitoring long term fuel trim, the ECM/PCM
detects long term malfunctions in the fuel system and
sets diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) if needed.

The knock control system adjusts the ignition timing to
minimize knock.
The MAP sensor converts manifold absolute pressure
into electrical signals to the ECM/PCM.
The vehicle has certain readiness codes that are part of
the on-board diagnostics for the emissions systems. If
the vehicle’s battery has been disconnected or gone
dead, if the DTCs have been cleared, or if the ECM/PCM
has been reset, these codes are reset. In some states,
part of the emissions testing is to make sure these
codes are set to complete. If all of them are not set to
complete, the vehicle may fail the test, or the test
cannot be finished.
To check if the readiness codes are set to complete,
turn the ignition switch to ON (II), but do not start the
engine. The MIL will come on for 15 20 seconds. If it
then goes off, the readiness codes are complete. If it
flashes five times, one or more readiness codes are not
complete. To set each code, drive the vehicle or run the
engine as described in the procedures (see page 11-69). The mass air flow (MAF) sensor/intake air temperature
(IAT) sensor contains a hot wire sensor, a cold wire
sensor, and a thermistor. It is located in the intake air
passage. The resistance of the hot wire sensor, the cold
wire sensor, and the thermistor change due to intake air
temperature and air flow. The control circuit in the MAF
sensor controls the current to keep the hot wire at a set
temperature. The current is converted to voltage in the
control circuit, then output to the ECM/PCM.
This sensor detects countershaft speed.

The secondary HO2S detects the oxygen content in the
exhaust gas downstream of the three way catalytic
converter (TWC), and sends signals to the ECM/PCM
which varies the duration of fuel injection accordingly.
To stabilize its output, the sensor has an internal heater.
The ECM/PCM compares the HO2S output with the A/F
sensor output to determine catalyst efficiency. The
secondary HO2S is on the TWC. The throttle is electronically controlled by the electronic
throttle control system. Refer to the system diagram to
see a functional layout of the system.
Idle control: When the engine is idling, the ECM/PCM
controls the throttle actuator to maintain the proper idle
speed according to engine loads.
Acceleration control: When the accelerator pedal is
pressed, the ECM/PCM opens the throttle valve,
depending on the accelerator pedal position (APP)
sensor signal.
Cruise control: The ECM/PCM controls the throttle
actuator to maintain the set speed when the cruise
control is operating. The throttle actuator takes the
place of the cruise control actuator.
As the accelerator pedal position changes, the sensor
varies the signal voltage to the ECM/PCM.

The throttle body is a single-barrel side draft type. The
lower portion of the throttle valve is heated by engine
coolant from the cylinder head to prevent icing of the
throttle plate. When the engine is cold, the A/C compressor is on, the
transmission is in gear, the brake pedal is pressed, the
power steering load is high, or the alternator is
charging, the ECM/PCM sends signal to the throttle
position to maintain the correct idle speed.
The brake pedal position switch signals the ECM/PCM
when the brake pedal is pressed.
The EPS signals the ECM/PCM when the power steering
load is high.
During deceleration with the throttle valve closed,
current to the injectors is cut off to improve fuel
economy at engine speeds over 1,000 rpm. Fuel cutoff
control also occurs when the engine speed exceeds
6,900 rpm (K20Z3: 8,200 rpm), regardless of the
position of the throttle valve, to protect the engine from
over-revving. When the vehicle is st
opped, the ECM/
PCM cuts the fuel at engine speeds over 5,000 rpm
(K20Z3: 7,700 rpm). On a cold engine, fuel cut occurs at
a lower engine speed.
When the ignition switch is turned to ON (II), the ECM/
PCM grounds PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) which
feeds current to the fuel pump for 2 seconds to
pressurize the fuel system. With the engine running, the
ECM/PCM grounds PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP)
and feeds current to the fuel pump. When the engine is
not running and the ignition is turned to ON (II), the
ECM/PCM cuts ground to PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL
PUMP) which cuts current to the fuel pump.
PGM-FI main relay 1 is energized whenever the ignition
switch is ON (II), to supply battery voltage to the ECM/
PCM, power to the injectors, and power for PGM-FI
main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP). PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL
PUMP) is energized to supply power to the fuel pump
for 2 seconds when the ignition switch is turned to
ON (II), and when the engine is cranking or running.

 The i-VTEC system has a variable valve timing control (VTC) mechanism on the intake camshaft in addition to the
usual VTEC.
This system improves fuel efficiency and reduces exhaust emissions at all levels of engine speed, vehicle speed,
and engine load.
 The VTEC system changes the valve lift and timing by using more than one cam profile.
 The VTC system changes the phase of the intake camshaft via oil pressure. It changes the intake valve timing continuously.
Driving Condition VTC Control Description
Light-load Base Position For stable combustion, the cam angle is retarded, and reduces the entry of exhaust gas into the cylinder.
Medium/high-load Advance Control Cam phase angle is controlled to optimize valve timing, improving fuel efficiency and reducing
emissions.
High speed Advance-Base Position To reduce pumping loss, the intake valve is closed quickly. This gives the air/fuel mixture a charging
effect that helps to maximize engine power.

 The VTC system makes continuous intake valve timing changes based on operating conditions.
 Intake valve timing is optimized to allow the engine to produce maximum power.
 Cam angle is advanced to obtain the EGR effect and reduce pumping loss. The intake valve is closed quickly to
reduce the entry of the air/fuel mixture into the intake port and improve the charging effect.
 The system reduces the cam advance at idle, stabilizes combustion, and reduces engine speed.
 If a malfunction occurs, the VTC system control is disabled and the valve timing is fixed at the fully retarded position.
 The VTEC system changes the cam profile to correspond to the engine speed. It maximizes torque at low engine speed and output at high engine speed.
 The low lift cam is used at low engine speeds, and the high lift cam is used at high engine speeds.

This system supplies air for engine needs.
When the engine is cold, the intake air bypass control
thermal valve sends air to the injector.
The amount of air is regulated by engine coolant
temperature. Once the engine is hot, the intake air
bypass control thermal valve closes, stopping air to the
injector. The TWC converts hydrocarbons (HC), carbon
monoxide (CO), and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in the
exhaust gas to carbon dioxide (CO ), nitrogen (N ), and
water vapor.
The PCV valve prevents blow-by gasses from escaping
into the atmosphere by venting them into the intake
manifold.

Refer to the system diagram to see a functional layout
of the system.
The EGR valve lowers peak combustion temperatures
and reduces oxides of nitrogen emissions (NOx) by
recirculating exhaust gas through the intake manifold
and into the combustion chambers.
Refer to the system diagram to see a functional layout
of the system.
The EVAP canister temporarily stores fuel vapor from
the fuel tank until it can be purged back into the engine
and burned.
When the engine coolant temperature is below 60 °C
(140 °F), the ECM/PCM turns off the EVAP canister
purge valve which cuts vacuum to the EVAP canister. The FTP sensor converts fuel tank absolute pressure
into an electrical input to the ECM/PCM.
The EVAP canister vent shut valve is on the EVAP
canister.
The EVAP canister vent shut valve controls the venting
of the EVAP canister.
