Fuel Injection System
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Three types of fuel injection control are provided to accommodate engine operating conditions; normal control,
idle control and start control. The ECM determines the appropriate fuel injection control. Under each control,
the amount of fuel injected is compensated to improve engine performance. The ECM performs duty control
on the electric governor (built into the fuel injection pump) according to sensor signals to compensate the
amount of fuel injected to the preset value.

When the ECM receives a start signal from the ignition switch, the
ECM adapts the fuel injection system for the start control. The
amount of fuel injected at engine starting is a preset program value
in the ECM. The program is determined by the engine speed and
engine coolant temperature.
For better startability under cool engine conditions, the lower the
coolant temperature becomes, the greater the amount of fuel
injected. The ECM ends the start control when the engine speed
reaches 400 rpm (for M/T models), 600 rpm (for A/T models) and
shifts the control to the normal or idle control.

When the ECM determines that the engine speed is at idle, the fuel injection system is adapted for the idle
control. The ECM regulates the amount of fuel injected corresponding to changes in load applied to the engine
to keep engine speed constant. The ECM also provides the system with a fast idle control in response to the
engine coolant temperature and heat up switch signal.

The amount of fuel injected under normal driving conditions is
determined according to sensor signals. The crankshaft position
sensor (TDC) detects engine speed and the accelerator position
sensor detects accelerator position. These sensors send signals to
the ECM.
The fuel injection data, predetermined by correlation between vari-
ous engine speeds and accelerator positions, are stored in the
ECM memory, forming a map. The ECM determines the optimal
amount of fuel to be injected using the sensor signals in compari-
son with the map.

The amount of fuel leaking at or around high-pressure parts inside fuel injection pump varies with fuel tem-
perature and engine speed. This will result in a difference between the target amount of fuel injected and the
actual amount. The ECM compensates for the actual amount depending on the signal from the fuel tempera-
ture sensor which detects fuel temperature.

Fuel Injection Timing System
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The fuel injection timing system provides the optimal fuel injection timing for the target amount of fuel injected
according to engine speed. The timing is compensated when the vehicle is being driven or when starting
depending on the engine coolant temperature.
The ECM performs duty control on the timing control valve, allowing the valve to provide optimal fuel injection
timing. The ECM also performs feedback control on the timing control valve using the signal from the needle
lift sensor which detects the actual fuel injection timing.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
This system improves acceleration when the air conditioner is used.
When the accelerator pedal is fully depressed, the air conditioner is turned off for a few seconds.
When engine coolant temperature becomes excessively high, the air conditioner is turned off. This continues
until the coolant temperature returns to normal.

If the engine speed is above 3,000 rpm with no load (for example,
in neutral and engine speed over 3,000 rpm) fuel will be cut off after
some time. The exact time when the fuel is cut off varies based on
engine speed.
Fuel cut will operate until the engine speed reaches 1,500 rpm,
then fuel cut is cancelled.
NOTE:
This function is different from deceleration control and fuel cut
solenoid valve control listed under ``Fuel Injection System'',
EC-15 and ``TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC 36, 37, 38'',
EC-130.

DTC and MIL Detection Logic
When a malfunction is detected for the ®rst time, the malfunction (DTC) is stored in the ECM memory.
The MIL will light up each time the ECM detects malfunction. However, if the same malfunction is experienced
in two consecutive driving patterns and the engine is still running, the MIL will stay lit up. For diagnostic items
causing the MIL to light up, refer to ``DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE INDEX'', EC-1.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
HOW TO READ DTC
The diagnostic trouble code can be read by the following methods.
1. The number of blinks of the malfunction indicator lamp in the Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-Diagnostic
Results) Examples: 11, 13, 14, etc.
These DTCs are controlled by NISSAN.
2. CONSULT Examples: ``CAM POS SEN (PUMP)'', etc.
+Output of the trouble code means that the indicated circuit has a malfunction. However, in the Mode
II it does not indicate whether the malfunction is still occurring or occurred in the past and returned
to normal.
CONSULT can identify them. Therefore, using CONSULT (if available) is recommended.
HOW TO ERASE DTC
The diagnostic trouble code can be erased by the following methods.
Selecting ``ERASE'' in the ``SELF-DIAG RESULTS'' mode with CONSULT.
Changing the diagnostic test mode from Diagnostic Test Mode II to Mode I. (Refer to EC-32.)
+If the battery terminal is disconnected, the diagnostic trouble code will be lost within 24 hours.
+When you erase the DTC, using CONSULT is easier and quicker than switching the diagnostic test
modes.
HOW TO ERASE DTC (With CONSULT)
1. If the ignition switch stays ``ON'' after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ``OFF'' once. Wait at least
5 seconds and then turn it ``ON'' (Engine stopped) again.
2. Turn CONSULT ``ON'' and touch ``ENGINE''.
3. Touch ``SELF-DIAG RESULTS''.
4. Touch ``ERASE''. (The DTC in the ECM will be erased.)
HOW TO ERASE DTC (No Tools)
1. If the ignition switch stays ``ON'' after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ``OFF'' once. Wait at least
5 seconds and then turn it ``ON'' again.
2. Change the diagnostic test mode from Mode II to Mode I. (Refer to EC-32.)
