• CHECK:
• CHECK:
Fuel pump relay operation-pump should
turn "ON" for 2 seconds when ignition is
turned
"ON". Use CHART A-5.
Fuel injectors are correct for the vehicle.
Fuel
pressure, use CHART A-7.
Contaminated
fuel.
Engine fuse (visual inspect).
A
faulty in-tank fuel pump check valve will
allow
the fuel in the lines to drain back to
the tank after engine is stopped. To check
for this condition, perform fuel system
diagnosis CHART A-7.
IGNITION SYSTEM
• CHECK: For proper ignition voltage output with
spark tester J26792 or equivalent (ST-
125).
DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS 6E2-91
• CHECK: Spark plugs. Remove spark plugs, check
for wet plugs, cracks, wear, improper
gap, burned electrodes, or heavy
deposits. Repair
or replace as necessary.
• CHECK: Bare or shorted wires.
• CHECK: Loose ignition coil ground.
ADDITIONAL CHECKS
• CHECK: Idle air control operation-use CHART C-
2C.
• CHECK: Basic engine problem. Refer to ENGINE
MECHANICAL DIAGNOSIS (SECTION
6A).
• CHECK: Service Bulletins for calibration updates.
SURGES AND/OR CHUGGLES
Definition: Engine power variation under steady
throttle or cruise. Feels like the car speeds
up and
slows down with no change in the
acceleration pedal.
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
• Perform the careful visual checks as described at
start
of "Symptoms," Section "6E2-B."
•
Be sure driver understands transmission
operation, and air conditioning compressor
operation
as explained in the owner's manual.
SENSORS
• CHECK: Heated oxygen sensor (H02S). The
H02S should respond quickly to different
throttle position, if it does not, check the
H02S for silicon or other contaminations
from fuel, or use of improper RTV sealant.
The sensor may have a white, powdery
coating and result in a high but false
signal voltage
(rich heated H02S signal
indication). The engine control module
will
then reduce the amount of fuel
delivered
to the engine, causing a severe
driveability problem. Also, watch for
green glycol contamination or cracking.

3. If there is no revolution per minute (rpm) drop
on one or more cylinders, or excessive
variation is drop, check
for spark on the
suspected
cylinder(s) using a shop
oscilloscope or with J 26792 (ST-125) spark
tester
or equivalent. If no spark, refer to
ENGINE ELECTRICAL (SECTION 6D) for
intermittent operation of miss. If there is a
spark, remove spark
plug(s) in these cylinders
and check for:
-
Insulator Cracks.
- Wear.
-
Improper Gap.
- Burned
Electrodes.
-Heavy Deposits.
• CHECK: Spark plug wires by connecting
ohmmeter to ends of each wire in
question.
If meter reads over 30,000
ohms, replace wire(s).
FUEL SYSTEM
• CHECK: Fuel system -Plugged fuel filter, low
pressure. Use CHART A-7.
• CHECK: Contaminated fuel.
• CHECK: Injector drivers. Disconnect all injector
harness connectors. Connect
J 34730-2
Injector Test Light or equivalent 6 volts
test light between the harness terminal,
of each injector connector and note light
while
cranking. If test light fails to blink at
any connector, it is a faulty injector drive
circuit harness, connector
or terminal.
ENGINE MECHANICAL
• CHECK: Compression. Perform compression
check on
questionable cylinder(s) found
above.
If compression is low, repair as
necessary. Refer to ENGINE
MECHANICAL DIAGNOSIS (SECTION
6A).
• CHECK: Engine parts. Remove cam covers.
Check
for broken valve springs, worn
camshaft lobes and valve timing. Repair
as necessary. See ENGINE MECHANICAL
DIAGNOSIS (SECTION
6A).
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
engine
or car may shake. Engine idle
speed may vary in rpm. Either condition
may be severe enough to stall engine.
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
• Perform the careful visual/physical checks as
described at start
of "Symptoms," Section "6E3-
B."
• CHECK:
• CHECK:
For vacuum leaks
Engine control module (ECM) grounds for
being clean, tight and proper routing.
See ECM wiring diagrams.
FUEL SYSTEM
• NOTICE: Monitoring L.T. Fuel Trim will help
identify the cause of the problem. If the
system is running
lean (LT. Fuel Trim
greater than 142), refer
to "Diagnostic
Aids"
on facing page of diagnostic trouble
code 44.
If the system is running rich (L.T. Fuel
Trim less than 118), refer to "Diagnostic
Aids" on facing page of diagnostic trouble
code 45.
• CHECK:
• CHECK:
• CHECK:
• CHECK:
• CHECK:
Incorrect minimum idle speed may be
caused
by foreign material accumulation
in the throttle bore coking, on the throttle
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.

FUEL METERING SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The fuel metering system (Fig. 6E2-68) consists of the
following components:
• Fuel supply components (fuel tank, pump and
lines).
• Fuel
pump electrical circuit.
• Fuel rail assembly, including:
-Fuel pressure control valve
• Throttle
body assembly, including:
-Idle Air Control valve
-Throttle Position Sensor
engine
sensors
• Fuel • :pump : ........
Fuel tank
Fig. 6E2-68
FUEL SUPPL V SYSTEM
The fuel supply is stored in the fuel tank. An electric
fuel
pump, located in the fuel tank with the gage
sending unit, pumps
fuel through an in-line fuel filter to
the
fuel rail assembly. The pump is designed to
provide
fuel at a pressure above the pressure needed
by the injectors. A fuel pressure control valve, an
integral part of the fuel rail assembly, keeps fuel
available
to the injectors at a controlled pressure.
Unused
fuel is returned to the fuel tank by a separate
line. See ENGINE FUEL (SECTION 6C) for replacement
procedures covering the fuel tank, fuel pump, in-line
filter
and fuel lines.
FUEL PUMP ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT
When the key is first turned "ON" without the engine
running, Engine
Control Module (ECM) will turn the fuel
pump relay "ON" for two seconds. This builds up the
fuel pressure quickly. lfthe engine is not started within
two seconds, the ECM will shut the fuel pump "OFF"
and wait until the engine starts. As soon as the engine
is cranked, the
ECM will turn the relay "ON" and run the
fuel pump.
An inoperative
fuel pump would cause a no start
condition. A
fuel pump which does not provide
enough pressure can
result in poor performance,
(refer to CHARTs A-5 and A-7).
FUEL RAIL ASSEMBL V
The fuel rail assembly (Fig. 6E2-69) is mounted to the
Inlet manifold, and performs several functions: It
positions the injectors in the cylinder head, it
distributes fuel evenly to the injectors, and it integrates
the
fuel pressure control valve into the fuel metering
system.
Fuel flow within the rail is shown in Fig. 6E2-
70.
