DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The Mpi Modular Engine Management System
(MEMS) controls the fuel injection and programmed
ignition systems.
The main features are as follows:
·The Engine Control Module (ECM) controls
programmed ignition and fuel injection. The ECM
incorporates short circuit protection and can
store intermittent faults on certain inputs.
Testbook can interrogate the ECM for these
stored faults.
·The ECM uses the speed/density method of air
flow measurement to calculate fuel delivery. This
method measures the inlet air temperature and
inlet manifold pressure and assumes that the
engine is a calibrated vacuum pump with its
characteristics stored in the ECM
·If certain system inputs fail, the ECM implements
a back-up facility to enable the system to
continue functioning, although at a reduced level
of performance.
·A separate diagnostic connector allows engine
tuning or fault diagnosis to be carried out using
Testbook without disconnecting the ECM
harness connector.
·The ECM harness multiplug incorporates
specially plated pins to minimise oxidation and
give improved reliability.
·The throttle potentiometer requires no
adjustment in service. The following components
supply data for both fuelling and ignition:Ignition system
The ECM determines the optimum ignition timing
based on the signals it receives from the following
sensors:
1.Crankshaft sensor - Engine speed and
crankshaft position.
2.Manifold absolute pressure sensor - Engine load
3.Coolant temperature sensor - Engine
temperature.
4.Manifold absolute pressure sensor - Throttle
closed.
5.Knock sensor - Engine noise and vibration.
MEMS uses no centrifugal or vacuum advance, timing
being controlled by the ECM which is energised by the
main relay, within the relay module. Spark distribution
is achieved by 2 coils mounted at the rear of the
engine and controlled by the ECM.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Basic ignition timing
MEMS provides the optimum ignition timing for the
relevant engine speed and load. The speed and
position of the engine is detected by the crankshaft
sensor which is bolted to, and projects through the
engine adapter plate.
The sensor incorporates an armature which runs
adjacent to a reluctor insert in the flywheel, the insert
consisting of 34 poles spaced at 10°intervals, with
two missing poles 180°apart to identify the T.D.C.
positions.
The sensor 'reads' these poles to provide a constant
up-date of engine speed and crankshaft position to
the ECM
The load signal is provided by the manifold absolute
pressure sensor mounted inside the ECM casing
which detects manifold pressure via a hose connected
to the manifold chamber. The sensor converts
pressure variations into graduated electrical signals
which can be read by the ECMIgnition timing compensation
Coolant temperature sensor
When the ECM receives a low engine temperature
signal from the coolant sensor, it provides optimum
driveability and emissions by advancing or retarding
the ignition timing.
Knock sensor
The knock sensor is a capacitive device mounted in
the cylinder block between nos. 2 and 3 cylinders
below the inlet manifold. The sensor monitors noise
and vibration in the engine and passes this
information to the ECM which is able to identify the
characteristics of the knocking and make the
necessary corrections to the ignition timing of
individual cylinders.
Idle speed control
When the throttle pedal is released and the engine is
at idle, the ECM uses the fast response of ignition
timing to assist idle speed control.
When loads are placed on, or removed from the
engine the ECM senses the change in engine speed
and in conjuction with the opening of the throttle disc
by the stepper motor, advances or retards the ignition
timing to maintain the specified idle speed. When load
is removed from the engine and the stepper motor
returns to it's original position, the ignition timing
returns to the idle setting.
NOTE: Due to the sensitivity of this system
the ignition timing will be constantly
changing at idle speed.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Fuel system
ECM
The MEMS system is controlled by the ECM which is
located in the engine compartment.
The ECM is an adaptive unit and can learn the load
and wear characteristics of a particular engine.
The ECM remembers and updates two main engine
requirements when the engine is fully warm:
1.The idle stepper position required to achieve the
specified idle speed.
2.The fuelling change or offset required to achieve
a set oxygen sensor voltage.
The stepper position is used as a reference to update
the amount of stepper motor movement required to
achieve the specified idle speed under all conditions.
The fuelling offset is required to enable the system
when not in closed loop control to provide the correct
fuelling and while in closed loop control to prevent
having to apply excessive adjustments to the fuelling
which can adversely affect the emissions and
driveability.
NOTE: After fitting a different ECM, a full
tune procedure must be carried out using
Testbook.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Injectors
The four fuel injectors are fitted between the
pressurised fuel rail and inlet manifold. Each injector
comprises of a solenoid operated needle valve and a
specially designed nozzle to ensure good fuel
atomisation.
Engine coolant temperature sensor
The coolant temperature sensor is mounted in the
thermostat housing and is immersed in the engine
coolant. The sensor is a resistive device in which the
resistance varies with temperature
Throttle housing
The throttle housing is attached to the inlet manifold
via a rubber sandwich plate and incorporates a throttle
disc which is connected to the throttle pedal via the
throttle lever and a cable.
There are two breather pipes; one either side of the
throttle disc. When the engine is running with the
throttle disc open, both pipes are subject to manifold
depression and draw crankcase fumes into the
manifold. When the throttle disc is closed, only the
pipe on the inlet manifold side of the disc is subject to
manifold depression. This pipe incorporates a
restrictor to prevent engine oil being drawn into the
engine by the substantially greater manifold
depression.
Also incorporated in the throttle housing are the
throttle potentiometer and stepper motor.
Throttle potentiometer
The throttle potentiometer is mounted in front of the
throttle housing and is directly coupled to the throttle
disc shaft.
Three wires connect the throttle potentiometer to the
ECM; a 5 volt supply to the potentiometer, an earth
return to the ECM and an output voltage to the ECM
which indicates the rate of throttle disc movement.
Stepper motor
The stepper motor is contained within the throttle
housing and operates a cam and push rod via a
reduction gear. The push rod is in direct contact with
the throttle lever and moves the throttle disc to control
idle and fast idle speed. The stepper motor maximum
movement is 3.75 revolutions accomplished in steps
of 7.5°. The reduction gear converts this into 180°of
cam movement.
The throttle lever has a throttle position setting screw
which rests on the stepper motor operating pin when
the throttle pedal is released and is used to set the
relationship between engine speed and stepper motor
position.
In the side of the throttle housing is a throttle air
bypass bleed screw to provide easier and more
sensitive setting of the stepper motor position at idle.
The stepper motor position is checked using Testbook
and should be within the range of 20 to 40 steps when
the engine is run in. If it is identified as being outside
this range it can be adjusted to within range by turning
the throttle air bypass bleed screw. It is important to
follow Testbook setting procedure when adjusting this
screw to prevent mismatching of throttle body
settings. This ensures that the stepper motor is at the
optimum position within its range for providing further
movement to compensate for changes in engine load
or temperature in accordance with signals from the
ECM
NOTE: The stepper motor and throttle
position setting screws must only be
adjusted when Testbook identifies the
requirement.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION SYSTEM OPERATION
Ignition on
When the ignition is switched on, voltage is applied to
ECM pin 11. The ECM then switches on the main
relay by supplying an earth path at pin 4. This allows
battery voltage to pass to ECM pin 28, to the four
injectors and through the ignition coil to ECM pin 25.
In addition, the fuel pump relay is switched on by the
ECM supplying an earth path on pin 20. Voltage is
applied through the inertia switch to the fuel pump.
The pump runs for a short period to pressurise the
fuel rail. The fuel pressure regulator will open at its
maximum setting and excess fuel is spill returned to
the tank.
The ECM determines the amount of stepper motor
movement from the following signals:
·Engine coolant temperature data at pin 33.
·Inlet air temperature data at pin 16.
·Throttle potentiometer data at pin 8.
·Engine speed data at pins 31 and 32.
·Manifold absolute pressure data (via pipe from
manifold).
·Battery voltage at pin 28.
·Ignition signal at pin 11.
If one or more of the following inputs fail, the ECM will
substitute the back-up values shown to maintain
driveability.
Input Back-up value
Coolant temperature Idle Speed controlled until
engine is fully warm. 60°Cat
speeds above idle.
Inlet air temperature Derived from engine speed and
engine load.
Manifold absolute Derived from engine speed and
pressure throttle position.
Starter operation
Whilst the starter relay is energised, battery voltage is
applied to the starter motor solenoid. The solenoid
also energises and supplies battery voltage directly to
the starter motor.
Ignition is controlled by the ECM switching the low
tension circuit via pin 25.
The ECM provides an earth signal on pins 24, 23, 26
and 1 for the period the injectors are required to be
open, the injector solenoids are energised
(simultaneously on naturally aspirated models) and
fuel is sprayed into the manifold onto the back of the
inlet valves. The ECM carefully meters the amount of
fuel injected by adjusting the injector opening period
(pulse width). During cranking, when the engine
speed is below approx. 400 rev/min, the ECM
increases the injector pulse width to aid starting. The
amount of increase depends upon coolant
temperature. To prevent flooding, injector pulses are
intermittent i.e. 24 on then 8 pulses off.
Idling
After start enrichment is provided at all temperatures
immediately cranking ceases. The ECM controls the
enrichment by increasing injector pulse width. The
enrichment decays in relation to the rising coolant
temperature.
Provided the ECM is receiving a signal that the engine
speed is close to the idle speed set point, the ECM
will implement idle speed control.
The ECM activates a unipolar stepper motor acting
directly on the throttle lever. Idle speed response is
improved by the ignition system advancing or
retarding the timing when load is placed on, or
removed from the engine.
If, during engine idle, the load on the engine is
increased sufficiently to cause engine speed to fall,
the ECM will sense this via the crankshaft sensor and
instantly advance the ignition timing to increase idle
speed and then energise the stepper motor to open
the throttle disc thus maintaining the idle speed.
Finally the ignition timing is retarded to its nominal
value.
The ECM monitors battery voltage and, if voltage falls
sufficiently to cause fluctuations in injector pulse
widths, it increases the injector pulse widths to
compensate.
On return to idle, the ECM will implement a slightly
higher idle speed to prevent the engine stalling.
