nect the cable from the negative (±) terminal of the bat-
tery. Wait at least 20 seconds before proceeding with
work.
2. REMOVE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT FLOOR MAT
3. REMOVE SPARE TIRE
4. REMOVE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT TRIM COVER
5. DISCONNECT FUEL PUMP CONNECTOR

INSPECTION OF FUEL PUMP
1. INSPECT FUEL PUMP RESISTANCEUsing an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the ter-
minals.
Resistance: 0.2±3.0
at 20 5C (68 5F)
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the fuel pump
and/or set plate.
2. INSPECT FUEL PUMP OPERATION Connect a test lead from the terminal 1 of the connector to the
positive (+) terminal of the battery; connect another test lead
from the terminal 2 of the connector to the negative (±) termi-
nal of the battery.
NOTICE:
w These tests must be performed quickly (within 10
seconds) to prevent the coil from burning out.
w Keep the fuel pump as far away from the battery as
possible.
w Always connect or disconnect at the battery.
If operation is not as specified, replace the fuel pump and/or
set plate.

1. CHECK FUEL PUMP OPERATION(a) Using SST, connect terminals +B and FP of the check
(ºDIAGNOSISº) connector.
SST 09843±18020
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON.
NOTICE: Do not start the engine.
(c) Check that there is pressure in the fuel inlet hose from the fuel filter.
HINT: At this time, you will hear fuel return noise.
(d) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(e) Remove SST from the check connector.

If there is no pressure, check the following parts:w Fuses
w EFI main relay
w Fuel pump ECU
w Fuel pump
w Engine & ECT ECU
w Wiring connections
2. CHECK FUEL PRESSURE (a) Check the battery voltage above 12 volts.
(b) Disconnect the cable from the negative (±) terminal ofthe battery.
CAUTION: Work must be started after approx. 20 se-
conds or longer from the time the ignition switch is
turned to the ºLOCKº position and negative (±) terminal
cable is disconnected from the battery.
(c) (Exc. USA Spec.) Remove the filter from the VSV (for EGR system).
(d) Remove the union bolt holding the LH deliver pipe to the
rear fuel pipe. Remove the two gaskets.
HINT:
w Put a suitable container or shop towel under the cold
start injector pipe.
w Slowly loosen the union bolt.
(e) Install the rear fuel pipe and SST (pressure gauge) to the LH delivery pipe with three new gaskets and the
union bolt.
