lgnition Timing Inspection and Setting
2.
1.Check the idle speed, and adjust it if necessary (see
section 1 1).
Pull out the service check connector 2P (BRN and
BLK wires) from the connector holder located under
the dash on the front passenger side, then connect
the scs service connector (P/N 07PAz - 0010100) to
it.
Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with
no load (A/T in N or E, Mff in neutral) until the
radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
Connect the timing light to the No. I ignition wire,
then point the light toward the pointer on the timing
belt cover.
Check the ignition timing in no load conditions:
headlights, blower fan, rear window defogger, and
air conditioner are not operating.

Loosen the distributor mounting bolts, and turn the
distributor ignition (Dl) housing counterclockwise to
advance the timing or clockwise to retard the tim-

Timing Belt
Removal
Replace the timing belt at 105,000 miles (168,000 km)
according to the maintenance schedule {normal condi-
tions/severe conditions). lf the vehicle is regularly driven
in either of the following conditions, replace the timing
belt at 60,000 miles (U.S.A.l 100.000 km (Canada).
- ln very high temperatures (over 110'F, 43"C).- In very low temperatures (under -20"F. -29"C).
Turn the crankshaft pu\ley so the No. 1 piston is at
top dead center (TDC).
Remove the guard bar and splash shield (see page

Loosen the mounting bolt and lock bolt. then remove
the power steering (P/S) pump belt.

Gylinder Head
Removal
Engine removal is not required for this procedure.
l!@ Make sure iacks and safety stands are
placed properly, and hoist blackels ale attachgd to the
correct position on the engine.
NOTE:
o Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted sur-
faces.
o To avoid damage, unplug the wiring connectors care-
fully while holding the connector portion.
. To avoid damaging the cylinder head, wait until the
engine coolant temperature drops below 100"F (38'C)
before loosening the retaining bolts.
. Mark all wiring and hoses to avoid misconnection.
Also, be sure that they do not contact other wiring or
hoses, or interfere with other parts.

ECM/PCM Data
By connecting the OBD ll scan tool or the Honda PGM Tester to the 16P data link connector (OLC), various data can be
retrieved from the ECM/PCM. The items listed in the table below conform to the SAE recommended practice
The Honda PGM Tester also reads data beyond that recommended by SAE.
understanding this data will help to find the causes of intermittent failures or engine problems.
NOTE:
The ',operating values" given below are approximate values and may be different depending on the environment and
the individual vehicle.
Unless noted otherwise. "at idle speed" means idling with the engine completely warmed up, transmission in position
Park or neutral and the A,./C and all accessories turned otf.
DataDesc.iptionOp€rating ValuoFreeze Data
Diagnostic
Trouble Code
(DTC)
lf the ECM/PCM detects a problem, it will store it as a
code consisting of one letter and tour numbers
Depending on the problem, an SAE-defined code (Poxxx)
or a Honda-defined code (P'lxxx) will be output to the
tester.
lf no problem is detected,
there is no output.
YES
Engine SpeedThe ECN4/PCN4 computes engine speed from the signals
sent from the Crankshaft Position sensor.
This data is used for determining the time and amount of
fuel iniection.
Nearly the same as
tachometer indication
At idle speed:'97 - 98 models:
750 t 50 rpm'99 - 00 models:
730 f 50 rpm
YES
Vehicle SpeedThe ECM/PCM converts pulse signals from the Vehicle
Speed Sensor (VSSI into speed data.
Nearly the same as

Manifold

Pressure (MAP)
The absolute pressure caused in the intake manifold by
engine load and speed.
With engin6 stopped:
Nearly the same as atmo-
spheric pressure
At idle speed:
2a - 41 kPa {210 - 310
mmHg, 8.3 - 12.2 inHg)
YES
Engine Coolant
Temperature
{ECT)
The ECT sensor converts coolant temperature into volt-
age and signals the ECM/PCM. The sensor is a thermistor
whose internal resistance changes with coolant tempera-
ture. The ECM/PCM uses the voltage signals from the
ECT sensor to determine the amount of injected fuel
With cold engine:
Same as ambient temPer-
ature and IAT
With engine warmed uP:
approx. 163 - 2'12'F

YES
Heated Oxygen
Sensor (HO25)
(Primary,
Sensor 1)
(Secondary
Sensor 2)
The Heated Oxygen Sensor detects the oxygen content in
the exhaust gas and sends voltage signals to the
ECMiPCM. Based on these signals, the ECM/PCM controls
the airlfuel ratio. When the oxygen content is high (that is.
when the ratio is leaner than the stoichiometric ratio), the
voltage signal is lower.
When the orygen content is low (that is, when the ratio
is richer than the stoichiometric ratio), the voltage signal
is higher.

HO2S
Feedback
Loop Status
Loop status is indicated as "open" or "closed".
Closed: Based on the HO2S output, the ECM/pCM deter-mines the airlfuel ratio and controls the amount ofinjected fuel.
Open: ignoring HO2S output, the ECM/pCiM refers to sig,nals from the TP, MAP, and ECT sensors to control theamount of injected fuel.
At idle speed: closed
YES
Short Term
Fuel Trim
The airlfuel ratio correction coefficient for correcting theamount of injected fuel when HO2S feedback is in theclosed loop status. When the signal from the HO2S isweak, short term fuel trim gets higher, and the ECM/PCMincreases the amount of injected fuel. The airlfuel ratiogradually gets richer, causing a higher HO2S output.Consequently. the short term fuel trim is lowered. andthe ECM/PCM reduces the amount of injected fuel.This cycle keeps the airfuel ratio close to the stoichio-metric ratio when in closed looD status.
t:20y"
YES
Long Term
Fuel Trim
Long term fuel trim is computed from shon term fueltrim and indicates changes occuring in the fuel supplysystem over a long period.
lf long term fuel trim is higher than 1,00. the amount ofinjected fuel must be increased. lf it is lower than L00.the amount of injected fuel must be reduced.

Intake Air
Temperature
(IAT)
The IAT sensor converts intake air temperature into volt-age and signals the ECrU/PCM. When intake air tempera-ture is low, the internal resistance of the sensorincreases, and the voltage signal is higher.

Same as ambient temper-
ature and ECTYES
