battery replacement CHRYSLER VOYAGER 1996 Owner's Manual

A defective fuel injection pump, defective fuel tim-
ing solenoid or misadjusted mechanical pump timing
can cause starting problems or prevent the engine
from revving up. It can also cause:
²Engine surge at idle
²Rough idle (warm engine)
²Low power
²Excessive fuel consumption
²Poor performance
²Low power
²Black smoke from the exhaust
²Blue or white fog like exhaust
²Incorrect idle or maximum speed
The electronically controlled fuel pump has no
mechanical governor like older mechanically con-
trolled fuel pumps. Do not remove the top cover of
the fuel pump, or the screws fastening the wiring
pigtail to the side of the pump.The warranty of
the injection pump and the engine may be void
if those seals have been removed or tampered
with.
FUEL SUPPLY RESTRICTIONS
LOW±PRESSURE LINES
Restricted or Plugged supply lines or fuel filter can
cause a timing fault that will cause the PCM to oper-
ate the engine in a ªLimp Homeº mode. See the
introduction of the Fuel Injection System in this
group for more information on the Limp Home mode.
Fuel supply line restrictions can cause starting prob-
lems and prevent the engine from revving up. The
starting problems include; low power and blue or
white fog like exhaust. Test all fuel supply lines for
restrictions or blockage. Flush or replace as neces-
sary. Bleed the fuel system of air once a fuel supply
line has been replaced. Refer to the Air Bleed Proce-
dure section of this group for procedures.
HIGH±PRESSURE LINES
Restricted (kinked or bent) high±pressure lines can
cause starting problems, poor engine performance
and black smoke from exhaust.
Examine all high±pressure lines for any damage.
Each radius on each high±pressure line must be
smooth and free of any bends or kinks.
Replace damaged, restricted or leaking high±pres-
sure fuel lines with the correct replacement line.
CAUTION: The high±pressure fuel lines must be
clamped securely in place in the holders. The lines
cannot contact each other or other components. Do
not attempt to weld high±pressure fuel lines or to
repair lines that are damaged. Only use the recom-
mended lines when replacement of high±pressure
fuel line is necessary.
FUEL SHUTDOWN SOLENOID TEST
Since diesel fuel injection does not use spark plugs
to start combustion, the only way to stop the engine
is to cut off the fuel supply. This is done with the
Fuel Shutdown Solenoid. If the engine cranks, but
refuses to start, it may be caused by a defective fuel
shutdown solenoid.
The fuel shutdown solenoid is not controlled
or operated by the PCM.Voltage to operate the
solenoid is supplied from the ignition (key) switch.
NOTE: Although the fuel shutdown solenoid is not
operated by the PCM, if the Fuel Shutdown Solenoid
has been disconnected, and the key turned on, the
PCM will sense that the solenoid is not in the circuit,
and will switch to a ªLimp Homeº mode. After recon-
necting the solenoid, the PCM will have to be reset
by clearing the codes with the DRBIII scan tool, or
disconnecting the vehicle's battery for several min-
utes. The DRBIII scan tool is the preferred method
for resetting the PCM. Refer to the 1998 GS 2.5L Die-
sel Powertrain Diagnostic Manual for procedure.
The fuel shutdown (shut±off) solenoid is used to
electrically shut off the diesel fuel supply to the high-
±pressure fuel injection pump. The solenoid is
mounted to the rear of the injection pump (Fig. 23).
The solenoid controls starting and stopping of the
engine regardless of the position of the accelerator
pedal. When the ignition (key) switch is OFF, the sole-
noid is shut off and fuel flow is not allowed to the fuel
injection pump. When the key is placed in the ON or

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)

HIGH-PRESSURE LINES
All high±pressure fuel lines are of the same length
and inside diameter. Correct high±pressure fuel line
usage and installation is critical to smooth engine
operation.
CAUTION: The high±pressure fuel lines must be
clamped securely in place in the holders. The lines
cannot contact each other or other components. Do
not attempt to weld high±pressure fuel lines or to
repair lines that are damaged. Only use the recom-
mended lines when replacement of high±pressure
fuel line is necessary.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect negative battery cable from battery.
(2) Remove the necessary clamps (Fig. 58) holding
the lines to the engine.
(3) Clean the area around each fuel line connec-
tion. Disconnect each line at the top of each fuel
injector (Fig. 59).
(4) Disconnect each high±pressure line fitting at
each fuel injection pump delivery valve.
(5) Very carefully remove each line from the
engine. Note the position (firing order) of each line
while removing.Do not bend the line while
removing.
CAUTION: Be sure that the high±pressure fuel lines
are installed in the same order that they were
removed. Prevent the injection pump delivery valve
holders (Fig. 58) from turning when removing or
installing high±pressure lines from injection pump.
INSTALLATION
(1) Carefully position each high±pressure fuel line
to the fuel injector and fuel injection pump delivery
valve holder in the correct firing order. Also position
each line in the correct line holder.
(2) Loosely install the line clamp/holder bolts.
(3) Tighten each line at the delivery valve to 30
N´m (22 ft. lbs.) torque.
(4) Tighten each line at the fuel injector to 30 N´m
(22 ft. lbs.) torque.
