ENGINE FUEL
Adhere to all Notices and Cautions.
All gasoline engines are designed to use only unleaded
gasoline. Unleaded gasoline must be used for proper
emission control system operation.
Its use will also minimize spark plug fouling and extend
engine oil life. Using leaded gasoline can damage the
emission control system and could result in loss of
emission warranty coverage.
All cars are equipped with an Evaporative Emission
Control System. The purpose of the system is to minimize
the escape of fuel vapors to the atmosphere.
Fuel Metering
The Engine Control Module (ECM) is in complete control
of this fuel delivery system during normal driving
conditions.
The intake manifold function, like that of a diesel, is used
only to let air into the engine. The fuel is injected by
separate injectors that are mounted over the intake
manifold.
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor measures
the changes in the intake manifold pressure which result
from engine load and speed changes, which the MAP
sensor converts to a voltage output.
This sensor generates the voltage to change
corresponding to the flow of the air drawn into the engine.
The changing voltage is transformed into an electric
signal and provided to the ECM.
With receipt of the signals sent from the MAP sensor,
Intake Air Temperature sensor and others, the ECM
determines an appropriate fuel injection pulse width
feeding such information to the fuel injector valves to
effect an appropriate air/fuel ratio.
The Multiport Fuel Injection system utilizes an injection
system where the injectors turn on at every crankshaft
re vol u tion . Th e EC M con tro ls t he in je cto r on tim e so t ha t
the correct amount of fuel is metered depending on
driving conditions.
Two interchangeable “O” rings are used on the injector
that must be replaced when the injectors are removed.
The fuel rail is attached to the top of the intake manifold
and supplies fuel to all the injectors.
Fuel is recirculated through the rail continually while the
engine is running. This removes air and vapors from the
fuel as well as keeping the fuel cool during hot weather
operation.
The fuel pressure control valve that is mounted on the fuel
rail maintains a pressure differential across the injectors
under all operating conditions. It is accomplished by
controlling the amount of fuel that is recirculated back to
the fuel tank based on engine demand.
See Section “Driveability and Emission” for more
information and diagnosis.

3) Run at "D" range lock-up or OD gear and check for
abnormal noise and vibration.
NOTE:
The check for the cause of abnormal noise and vibration
must be made with extreme care as it could also be due to
loss of balance in the propeller shaft, differential, the
torque converter, etc. or insufficient bending, rigidity, etc.
in the power train.
4) While running in "D" range, 2nd, 3rd gears and OD, check
to see that the possible kick-down vehicle speed limits for 2
1, 3 1, 3 2, OD 3 and OD 2 kick-downs
conform to those indicated on the automatic shift diagram.
5) Check for abnormal shock and slip at kick-down.
6) While running in "D" range, OD gear or "lock-up", shift to
"2" and "L" ranges and check the engine braking effect at
each of these ranges.
7) Also check to see that downshift is made from 3
2 or
from OD to 3 and then to 2 immediately and that 2
1
downshift point is within the limits shown in the diagram
when tested by releasing the accelerator pedal and shifting
into position of "L" while driving in the third gear or in
overdrive.
EVALUATION
(1) If there is no engine braking effect in the "2" range:
• Second coast (No. 1) brake is defective.
(2) If there is no engine braking effect in the "L" range:
• First and reverse (No. 3) brake is defective
(3) Also check to see that downshift is made from 3
2 or
from OD to 3 and then to 2 immediately and that 2
1
downshift point is within the limits shown in the diagram
when tested by releasing the accelerator pedal and shifting
into "L" position while driving in the third gear or in
overdrive.
