IThrottle BodY
Description
The throttle bodY is either a single-barrel side-draft type
(D16Y5, D16Y8, 816A2 engine) or a down-draft type
(D16Y/ engine). The lower portion ot the throttle valve is
heated by engine coolant from the cylinder head' The
idle adjusting screw which regulates the bypass air is
located on the top of the throttle body

2. Remove the vacuum hose from the fitting on the
intake air duct, and connect a vacuum gauge to the
nose.
NOTE: Engine coolant temperature must be below

VACUUM PUMP/GAUGE,
0-30 in.Hg.A973X - 041 -XXXXX
Raise and lower the engine speed, and make sure
the vacuum gauge reading changes as the engine
speed changes.
lf vacuum reading does not change check these
rtems:
. The vacuum lines of FIA system for misrouting,
leakage, breakage and clogging.
. The FIA controt valve for cracks or damage
. The cooling system (see section 10).
Hold the engine at 3,OOO rpm with no load (in Park
or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, th€n let
it idle and recheck.
lf vacuum reading changes check these items:
a The FIA control valve for cracks or damage.
. The cooling system (see section 10).

Emission Gontrol System
System Description
The emission control system includes a Three Way Cata-lytic Convener (TWC), Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)
system,. Positive Crankcase Ventilation (pCV) system andEvaporative Emission (EVAP) Control system. The emis-sion control system is designed to meet federal and stateemission standards.*: D16Y5 engine
Tailpipe Emission
Inspestion
@@ Do not smoke during ihis procedure. Keepany open flame away from your work area.
1. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm withno load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fancomes on. then let it idle.
2. Connect a tachometer.
Check and, if necessary, adjust the idle speed (see
page 11-220 - 223).
Warm up and calibrate the CO meter according to themeter manufacturer's instructions.
Check idle CO with the headlights, heater blower,rear window defogger, cooling fan, and air condition-er off.
NOTE: (Canada) Pull the parking brake lever up.Start the engine, then check that the headlights areoff.
CO mete. should indicate 0.1% maximum.
NOTE: '98 Dl6Y5 engine - lf the idle speed incress-es to 8101 50 rpm, this means the EVAp system ispurging the canister. To stop the purging temporari-ly. raise the engine speed above 1,000 rpm with theaccelerator pedal, then slowly release the pedal.
