Within range of low
speed and high load
at accelerationAdvancing closing timing of
intake valve allows amount
of intake air flowing back
into intake port to be limited
as well as allows
volumetric efficiency to be
improved, resulting in low
and middle speed torques
improved.Low and middle speed
torques improved
Within range of
middle speed and
middle loadIncreasing overlap amount
allows pumping loss to be
decreased. Retarding
opening timing of exhaust
valve allows burned gas to
work sufficiently and allows
cycle efficiency to be
improved, resulting in
higher expansion ratio.Fuel economy
improved
Within range of high
speed and high loadRetarding closing timing of
intake valve in accordance
with engine speed allows
valve timing to be
controlled according to
inertia force of intake air
and allows volumetric
efficiency to be improved.Output improved

FUEL PUMP RELAY CONTROL
MULTIPORT FUEL SYSTEM (MFI)13A-46
FUEL PUMP RELAY CONTROLM2132006500208
When current flows through the fuel pump relay, the
relay turns ON and the fuel pump is driven. The fuel
pump relay is built into the ETACS-ECU. When the
ignition switch-ST signal is input, ECM turns ON the
power transistor for control of the fuel pump relay. As a result, power is supplied to the fuel pump. Also, if
engine speed falls below a set value, the fuel pump
relay is turned OFF. Thus, it deals with sudden stop
-
pages such as engine stalling etc. by stopping the
pump.
