6E2-90 DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
INTERMITTENTS
Definition: Problem may or may not turn "ON" the
"Check Engine" malfunction indicator lamp or store
Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC).
DO NOT use the DTC charts in "Engine Components/
Wiring Diagrams/Diagnostic
Charts," Section "6E2-A"
for intermittent problem. The fault must be present to
locate the problem. If a fault is intermittent, use of DTC
charts may result in replacement of good parts.
•
• Most intermittent problems are caused by faulty
electrical
connections or wiring. Perform careful
visual/physical
check as described at start of
"Symptoms," Section "6E2-B." Check for:
Poor mating
of the connector halves. or
terminal not fully seated in the connector body
(backed out).
Improperly formed or damaged terminal. All
connector
terminals in the problem circuit
should be carefully reformed or replaced to
insure proper contact tension.
Poor
terminal to wire connection. This
requires removing the
terminal from the
connector body to check. Refer to
SECTION 8
"Wiring Harness Service,"
If a visual/physical check does not find the cause
of the problem, the car can be driven with a
voltmeter connected to a suspected circuit. A
"Scan tool" can also be used to help detect
intermittent conditions. An abnormal
voltage, or
"Scan" tool reading, when the problem occurs,
indicates the
problem may be in that circuit. If the wiring
and connectors check
OK, and a DTC was
stored
for a circuit having a sensor, except for
DTC(s) 44 and 45, substitute a known good sensor
and recheck.
• Loss of DTC memory. To check, disconnect
throttle position (TP) sensor and idle engine until
"Check
Engine" malfunction indicator lamp comes
"ON". DTC 21 should be stored, and kept in
memory when ignition is turned "OFF". If not, the
Engine
Control Module (ECM) is faulty.
•
An intermittent "Check Engine" malfunction
indicator
lamp with no stored DTC may be caused
by:
Ignition coil shorted to ground and arcing at
spark
plug wires or plugs.
"Check
Engine" malfunction indicator lamp
wire to ECM shorted to ground.
Diagnostic
"test" terminal wire to ECM,
shorted to ground.
ECM grounds, refer to ECM wiring diagrams.
• Check for an electrical system interference caused
by a defective
relay, ECM driven solenoid, or
switch. They can cause a sharp electrical surge.
Normally, the problem will occur when the faulty
component is operated.
• Check for improper installation of electrical
options such as lights, 2 way radios, etc.
• Ignition control wires should be routed away from
spark plug wires, electronic ignition (EI) wires, El
housing, coil and generator. Ground wire from
ECM to El should have a good connection.
• If problem has not been found, refer to "ECM
Connector Symptom" charts at the end of
"Symptoms," Section "6E2-B."
HARD START
Definition: Engine cranks OK, but does not start for a
long time. Does eventually run, or may
start
but immediately dies.

ADDITIONAL CHECKS
• CHECK: For electromagnetic interference (EMI).
A missing condition can be caused by EMI
on the reference circuit. EMI can usually
be detected by monitoring engine speed
with a "Scan tool". A sudden increase in
rpm
with little change in actual engine
speed change, indicates
EMI is present. If
the problem exists, check routing of
secondary wires, check distributor
ground circuit.
• CHECK: Intake and exhaust manifold passage for
casting
flash.
ROUGH, UNSTABLE, OR INCORRECT IDLE, STALLING
Definition: Engine runs unevenly at idle. If severe, the

body or on the throttle shaft.
Clean injectors.
For
fuel in fuel pressure control valve
hose. If fuel is present, replace regulator
assembly.
Evaporative Emission Control System,
refer to "Evaporative Emission Control
System," Section "6E2-C3".
The Heated oxygen sensor should
respond quickly to different throttle
position, if it does not, check the heated
oxygen sensor
for silicon contaminations
from fuel, or use of improper RTV sealant.
The sensor will have a white, powdery
coating and will result in a high but false
signal voltage
(rich heated oxygen sensor
signal indication). The ECM will then
reduce the
amount of fuel delivered to the
engine, causing a severe
driveability
problem.

RESTRICTED EXHAUST SYSTEM CHECK
Proper Diagnosis for a restricted exhaust system is essential before any components are replaced.
BACK PRESSURE GAGE 3 EXHAUST PIPE
2 HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR
Fig. 6E2-49
DIAGNOSIS:
1. With the engine idling at normal operating temperature, observe the exhaust system back pressure reading
on the gage. Reading
should not exceed 7.8 kPa (1.13 psi).
2. Increase engine speed to 2000 revolution per minute and observe gage. Reading should not exceed 14.6 kPa
(2.11 psi).
3. If the backpressure at either speed exceeds specification, a restricted exhaust system is indicated.
4. Inspect the entire exhaust system for a collapsed pipe, heat distress, or possible internal muffler failure.
5. If there are no obvious reasons for the excessive back pressure, the three way catalytic converter is suspected
to be restricted and
should be replaced.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)
The Engine Control Module (ECM) (Fig. 6E2-50),
located under the instrument panel, is the control
center of the fuel injection system. If constantly looks
at the information from various sensors, and controls
the systems that affect vehicle performance. The ECM
also performs the diagnostic function of the system. It
can recognize operational problems, alert the driver
through the "Check Engine" malfunction indicator
lamp, and store a diagnostic trouble code or diagnostic
trouble codes which identify the problem areas to aid
the technician in making repairs.
See "Introduction"
Section "6E2" for more information on using the
diagnostic function
of the ECM.
For service, this ECM is replaced as a complete unit.
There are no serviceable parts in the
ECM. The
calibrations are stored in the
ECM in the Electronic
Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory
(EEPROM).
