After installation, check that all tubes, hoses, and
connectors are installed correctly.
Inspect for fuel leaks. Turn the ignition switch ON
(ll) (do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump
runs for about 2 seconds and pressurizes the fuel
line. Repeat this operation two or three times, then
check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.
Refill the radiator with engine coolant, and bleed
air from the cooling system with the heater valve

ECM Data
You can retrieve data from the ECI\4 by connecting the OBD ll scan tool or the Honda PGM Tester to the data link
connector (DLC). The items listed in the table below conform to SAE recommended practice. The Honda PGM Tester
also reads data beyond that recommended by SAE to help you find the causes of intermittent problems.
The "operating values" listed are approximate and may vary depending on the environment and the individual
vehicle.
Unless noted otherwise, "at idle speed" means idling with the engine completely warmed up in the neutral position,
and the A,/C and all
Diagnostic
Trouble Code(DTC}
lf the ECM delects a problem, it will store it as a code
consisting of one letter and four numbers. Depending on
the problem, an SAE-defined code (Poxxx) or a Honda,
defined code {P1xxx) will be output to the tester.
The ECI\4 computes engine speed from the signals sent
from the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor. This data is
used for determining the time and amount of injected fuel.

Short Term
FuelTrim
The airlfuel ratio correction coefficient for correcting the
amount of injected fuel when the fuel system status
is "closed." When the ratio is leaner than the
sloichiometric ratio, the ECM increases short term fuel
trim gradually, and the amount of iniected fuel increases.
The airlfuel ratio gradually gets richer, causing a lower
oxygen content in the exhaust gas. Consequently, the
short term fuel trim is lowered, and the ECM reduces the
amount of injected fuel.
This cvcle keeps the airlfuel ratio close to the
stoichiometric ratio when in closed loop status.

Long Term
Fuel Trim
Long term fuel trim is computed from short term fuel trim
and indicates changes occurring in the fuel supply system
over a long period.

lgnition Timing Control
The ECM contains the memory for basic ignition timing
at various engine speeds and manifold absolute
pressure. lt also adjusts the timing according to engine
coolant temperature.
Iniector Timing and Duration
The ECM contains the memory for basic discharge
duration at various engine speeds and manifold
pressures. The basic discharge duration, after being
read out from the memory, is further modified by
signals sent from various sensors to obtain the final
discharge duration.
By monitoring long term fuel trim, the ECM detects long
term malfunctions in the fuel system and sets a
Diagnostic Trouble Code {DTC).
Intake Air Temperature (lAT) Sensor
The IAT sensor is a temperature dependent resistor
{thermistor). The resistance of the thermistor decreases
as the intake air temDerature increases.
Knock Sensor
The knock control system adjusts the ignition timing to
minimize knock.
PIEZOCERAMIC
Malfunction Indicator Lamp lMlLl Indication {ln relation
to Readiness Codes)
The vehicle has certain "readiness codes" that are part
of the on-board diagnostics for the emissions systems.
lf the vehicle's baftery has been disconnected or gone
dead. if the DTCS have been cleared, or if the ECM has
been reset. these codes are set to incomplete. In some
states, part of the emissions testing is to make sure
these codes are set to comDlete. lf all of them are not
set to complete, the vehicle may fail the test and the
test cannot be finished.
To check if the readiness codes are set to complete,
turn the ignition switch ON (ll). but do not start the
engine.TheMILwill comeonforlS 20seconds. lf it
then goes off, the readiness codes are set to complete,
lf it blinks severaltimes, one or more readiness codes
are not set to comolete. To set each code, drive the
vehicle or run the engine as described in the
procedures to set them in this section (see page 1 1-46).
Manifold Absolute Pressure {MAP) Senso]
The MAP sensor converts manifold absolute pressure
into electrical signals to the ECM.
