IGNITION TIMING
NOTE:
Before starting engine, place transmission gear shift lever in
“Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P” range for A/T model), and
set parking brake.
INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
1) Connect SUZUKI scan tool (1) to DLC (2) with ignition switch
OFF.
2) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
3) Make sure that all of electrical loads except ignition are
switched off.
4) Check to be sure that idle speed is within specification.
(Refer to SECTION 6E1)
5) Set timing light to No.1 high-tension cord.
6) Fix ignition timing to initial one as follows:
Select “MISC” made on SUZUKI scan tool and fix ignition tim-
ing to initial one.
7) Using timing light, check that timing is within specification.
Initial ignition timing (Ignition timing fixed):
5 ±3 BTDC (at idle speed)
Ignition order: 1-3-2
Special Tool
(A): 09900-27301 or 09930-76420
8) If ignition timing is out of specification, loosen flange bolts, ad-
just timing by turning distributor assembly while engine is run-
ning, and then tighten bolts.
Tightening Torque
(a): 15 N
.m (1.5 kg-m, 11.0 lb-ft)
9) After tightening distributor flange bolts, recheck that ignition
timing is within specification.
10) After checking and/or adjusting Initial Ignition Timing, release
ignition timing fixation by SUZUKI scan tool.
11) With engine idling (ignition timing not fixed, idle switch ON and
car stopped), check that ignition timing is about 10 BTDC.
(Constant variation within a few degrees from 10 indicates no
abnormality but proves operation of electronic timing control
system.) Also, check that increasing engine speed advances
ignition timing.
If above check results are not satisfactory, check CTP switch,
test switch terminal circuit and ECM.

REMOUNTING
NOTE:

Before installing distributor, check to make sure that its
O-ring is in good condition.

If new O-ring is installed, apply oil.
1) Install distributor without cap to camshaft.
Fit the dogs of distributor coupling into the slots of camshaft,
when installing. The dogs of distributor coupling are offset.
Therefore, if the dogs can not shaft by 180 degree and try again.
2) Lightly install flange bolts and prepare for ignition timing adjust-
ment.

cap, and then fasten it with screws.
6) Connect distributor lead coupler.
7) Check and adjust ignition timing as previously outlined.

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under “Gener-
al Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on
or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Service Precau-
tions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service on or around
the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional
activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two conditions may
result in severe injury.

Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).

6F1-2 IGNITION SYSTEM (SFI FOR G13)
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ignition system is an electronic (distributorless) ignition system. It consists of the parts as described below and
has an electronic ignition control system.

ECM (PCM)
It detects the engine and vehicle conditions through the signals from the sensors, determines the most suitable
ignition timing and time for electricity to flow to the primary coil and sends a signal to the ignitor (power unit) in
the ignition coil assembly.

Ignition coil assembly (including an ignitor)
The ignition coil assembly has a built-in ignitor which turns ON and OFF the current flow to the primary coil accord-
ing to the signal from ECM (PCM). When the current flow to the primary coil is turned OFF, a high voltage is in-
duced in the secondary coil.

High tension cords and spark plugs.

CMP sensor (Camshaft position sensor) and CKP sensor (Crankshaft position sensor)
Using signals from these sensors, ECM (PCM) identifies the specific cylinder whose piston is in the compression
stroke and detects the crank angle.

TP sensor, ECT sensor, MAP sensor and other sensors / switches
Refer to section 6E2 for details.
Although this ignition system does not have a distributor, it has two ignition coil assemblies (one is for No.1 and
No.4 spark plugs and the other is for No.2 and No.3 spark plugs). When an ignition signal is sent from ECM (PCM)
to the ignitor in the ignition coil assembly for No.1 and No.4 spark plugs, a high voltage is induced in the secondary
coil and that passes through the high-tension cords and causes No.1 and No.4 spark plugs to spark simultaneously.
Likewise, when an ignition signal is sent to the ignitor in the other ignition coil assembly, No.2 and No.3 spark plugs
spark simultaneously.
