lntake Air System
Throttle Body
Description
The throttle body is ot the single-barrel side-draft 1ype.
The lower portion of the throttle valve is heated by en-gine coolant from the cylinder head. The idle adjusting
screw which increases/dec.eases bvDass air and the
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Control Canister port are
located on the top of the throttle body.

1. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,OOO rpm with
no load (A/T in S or E position, M/T in neutral) until
the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
2. Disconnect the vacuum hose (to the EVAP control
canister) from the top of the throttle body; connect
a vacuum, gauge to the throttle body.

3. Allow the engine to idle and check that the gauge
indicates no vacuum.
a li there is vacuum, check the throttle cable (see
page 1 1-'l 18, 119).
Check that vacuum is indicated on the gauge when
the throttle is opened slightly from idle.
a lf the gauge indicates no vacuum, check the throt-
tle body port. lf the throttle body port is clogged.
clean it with carburetor cleaner.
Stop the engine and check that the throttle cable
operates smoothly without binding or sticking.
a lf there are any abnormalities in the above steps,
check for:
- Excessive wear or Dlav in the throttle valve shaft.
Sticky or binding throttle lever at full close po-
srtron.
Clearance between throttle stop screw and throt-
tle lever at tull close Dosition.

Connect a tachometer.
Check and adiust the idle speed, if necessary (sss

NOTE: (Canada) Pull the parking br8ke lever up.
Stan the engine, then check that the headlights are
off.

Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCVI System
Description
The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system is
designed to prevent blow-by gas {rom escaping to the
atmosphsre. The PCV valve contains a spring-loadsd
plunger. When the Bngine starts, the plunger in the PCV
valve is lifted in proportion to intake manifold vacuum
and the blow-by gas is drawn directly into th€ intak€
manifold.

At idle, mak6 sur€ th6fe is a clicking sound from th6
PCV valve when the hose between rcV valve and

Thg avaporstive omission controls are designed to minimize the smount of fusl vapor escaping to the atmosphero. The
system conaists ot the following compon€nts:
Evlporttly. Emlttbn (EVAPI Control Caniltot
An EVAP control canistor is used lor the temporary storage ot fuel vapor until the fuel vapor can be purged lrom
th€ EVAP control canister into the engin€ and burned.
vlpor hr]gG Cmt]ol Syst m
€VAp control canistgr puroing is accomplished by drawing fresh air through tho EVAP control canister and into a
pon on th6 throttl€ body. Th€ purging vacuum is controllsd by the EVAP purge control diaphragm valve end the
EVAP purge control solenoid valve.
C. Ft|.l Tmk Vlpor Control Systom
When fuel vapor prassure in the fuel tank is higher than the set v8lue of the EVAP two way v8lv6, th€ valve opens
and regulates the flow ol fuel vapor to the EVAP control canister.

Apply vacuum slowly and continuously while watch-
ing the gauge.
Vacuum should stabilize momentarilv at 5-15
mmHg (0.2-0.6 in. Hg).
a It vacuum stabilizes (valve opensl below5mmHg(O.2 in.Hg) or above I 5 mmHg (O.6 in.Hg), install
a new valve and retest.
Move vacuum pump hose from vacuum to pressure
titting, and move vacuum gauge hose trom vacuum
to oressure side as shown.
Pressure should stabilize at 1O-35 mmHg (0.4- 1 .4
in. Hg).
a lf p.essure momentarily stabilizes {valve opensl
at 1O-35 mmHg (O.4- 1.4 in.Hg), the valve is
oK.
a lf pressure stabilizes below 10 mmHg {O.4 in.Hg)
