Idle Speed and IAC Throttle Valve Opening 
Inspection
S7RS0B1106001
Before idle speed check, make sure of the following.
• Lead wires and hoses of electronic fuel injection and engine and emission control systems are connected 
securely.
• Valve lash is checked according to maintenance  schedule.
• Ignition timing is within specification.
• All accessories (wipers, heater, lights, A/C, etc.) are  out of service.
• Air cleaner has been properly installed and is in good  condition.
• No abnormal air drawn in from air intake system.
After all items are confirmed, check idle speed and IAC 
duty as follows.
NOTE
Before starting engine, place transmission 
gear shift lever in “Neutral” (shift selector 
lever to “P” range for A/T vehicle), and set 
parking brake and block drive wheels.
 
1) Connect SUZUKI scan tool  to DLC (1) with ignition 
switch turned OFF.
Special tool
(A):  SUZUKI scan tool 2) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
3) Check engine idle speed and “IAC throttle opening” 
by using “Data List” mode on scan tool to check “IAC 
throttle opening”.
4) If check result is out of sp ecification, inspect electric 
throttle body assembly referring to “Electric Throttle 
Body Assembly On-Vehicle Inspection in Section 
1C”.
Engine idle speed
A/C OFF: 700  ± 50 rpm (IAC duty: 5 – 55%)
A/C ON: 850  ± 50 rpm
5) Check that specified engine idle speed is obtained  with A/C turned ON if vehi cle is equipped with A/C.
If not, check A/C system.

Fuel Pump DescriptionS7RS0B1701003
The fuel pump (1) is an in-tank type electric pump. 
Incorporated in the pump assembly are;
a fuel filter (2) and a fuel pressure regulator (3) are 
included and a fuel level gauge (4) is attached.
Addition of the fuel pressure regulator to the fuel pump 
makes it possible to mainta in the fuel pressure at 
constant level and ECM controls compensation for 
variation in the intake manifold pressure.
