FI±138EFI SYSTEM
± Service Specifications
WhereEverybodyKnowsYourName

The EFI system is composed of three basic sub±systems: Fuel, Air Induction and Elect\
ronic Control
Systems.
FUEL SYSTEM
An electric pump fuel pressure supplies sufficient fuel, under a constant pressure, to the EFI injectors. In
accordance with signals from the ECU (Electronic Control Unit), these \
injectors inject the quantity of fuel most
appropriate for the engine condition into the intake manifold.
AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
The air induction system provides sufficient air for engine operation.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
The 1UZ±FE engine (ECU±formerly EFI computer) with a microcomputer \
centrally controls the EFI, ESA,
ISC and Diagnosis system, etc. The ECU controls the following functions:
1. Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI)
The ECU receives signals from various sensors indicating changing engine op\
eration conditions such as:Intake air volume
Intake air temperature
Coolant temperature
Engine rpm
Acceleration/deceleration
Exhaust oxygen content etc.
The signals are utilized by the ECU to determine the injection duration nec\
essary for an optimum air±fuel
ratio.
2. Electronic Spark Advance (ESA) The ECU is programmed with data for optimum ignition timing under any and all opera\
ting conditions. Using
data provided by sensors which monitor various engine functions (rpm, coola\
nt temperature, etc.), the
Electronic Control Unit (ECU) triggers the spark at precisely right instant. (S\
ee IG section)
3. Idle Speed Control (ISC) The ECU is programmed with idle speed data for various engine conditions (\
coolant temperature, air condi-
tioner ON/OFF, etc.).
The air volume flowing through the throttle valve by±pass passage is adj\
usted according to the signal from
each sensor and the idle speed is kept at the set value.
4. Diagnosis Function When the ECU detects any malfunctions or abnormalities in the sensor network\
, it lights the ºCHECKº en-
gine warning light in the combination meter. At the same time, the trouble is identified and a diagnostic code
is recorded by the ECU. The diagnostic code can be read by the number of\
blinks of the ºCHECKº engine
warning light when terminals TE1 and E1 are connected. The diagnostic co\
des are refer to the later page.
(See TR section)
5. Self±Correction Function If any sensor malfunctions, an average value recorded in the back±up ci\
rcuit is substituted to make driving
possible.
If danger is predicted, the engine is stopped and the ºCHECKº engine\
warning light will light up.
6. Fail±Safe Function Even if an abnormality occurs in the ECU, the back±up circuit uses a specifie\
d fuel injection and ignition
timing to provide vehicle driveability, and also lightsup the ºCHECKº engine warning light.

EFI SYSTEM
± Description
WhereEverybodyKnowsYourName

ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
The control system consists of sensors which detect various engine conditio\
ns, and a ECU which determines
the injection volume (timing) based on the signals from the sensors.
The various sensors detect the air intake volume, engine rpm, oxygen densit\
y in the exhaust gas, coolant tem-
perature, air intake temperature and atmospheric pressure etc. and convert the inf\
ormation into an electrical
signal which is sent to the ECU. Based on these signals, the ECU calculates th\
e optimum ignition timing for the
current conditions and operates the injectors.
The ECU not only controls the fuel injection timing, but also the self diag\
nostic function which records the oc-
currence of a malfunction, ignition timing control, idle rpm control, EGR contro\
l, EVAP control, ACIS and fuel
pump control, which switches between the high and low fuel pump speeds accor\
ding to varied load conditions. FI±8

PRECAUTIONS
1. Before working on the fuel system, disconnect the cablefrom negative (±) terminal of the battery.
HINT: Any diagnostic code retained by the computer will be
erased when the battery terminal is removed. Therefore, if
necessary, read the diagnosis before removing the battery
terminal.
CAUTION: Turn the ignition switch to ºLOCKº. Discon-
nect the cable from the negative (±) terminal of the bat-
tery. Wait at least 20 seconds before proceeding with
work.
2. Do not smoke or work on open flame when working on the fuel system.
3. Keep gasoline away from rubber or leather parts.
INSPECTION PRECAUTIONS
MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS
1. CHECK CORRECT ENGINE TUNE±UP (See page EM±8)
2. PRECAUTIONS WHEN CONNECTING GAUGE (a) Use the battery as the power source for the timing light,tachometer, etc.
(b) Connect the test probe of a tachometer to the terminal IG
of the check connector.
3. IN EVENT OF ENGINE MISFIRE, FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN
(a) Check proper connection of battery terminals, etc.
(b) Handle high±tension cords carefully.
(c) After repair work, check that the ignition coil terminalsand all other ignition system lines are reconnected
securely.
(d) When cleaning the engine compartment, be especially careful to protect the electrical system from water.
4. PRECAUTIONS WHEN HANDLING OXYGEN SENSOR (a) Do not allow oxygen sensor to drop or hit against anobject.
(b) Do not allow the sensor to come into contact with water.

EFI SYSTEM Precautions, Inspection PrecautionsFI±11
WhereEverybodyKnowsYourName

IF VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH MOBILE
RADIO SYSTEM (HAM, CB, ETC.)
The ECU has been designed so that it will not be affected by out-
side interference. However, if your vehicle is equipped with a CB
radio transceiver, etc. (even one with about 10 W output), it may,
at times, have an effect upon ECU operation, especially if the an-
tenna and feeder are installed nearby.
Therefore, observe the following precautions:
1. Install the antenna as far away as possible from the ECU. The ECU is located on the floor panel on the passenger side
so the antenna should be installed at the rear of the vehicle.
2. Keep the antenna feeder as far away as possible from the ECU wires±at least 20 cm (7.87 in.) ±and, especially, do not
wind them together.
3. Check that the feeder and antenna are properly adjusted.
4. Do not equip your vehicle with a powerful mobile radio
system.
5. Do not open the cover or the case of the ECU unless absolutely necessary. (If the IC terminals are touched, the IC
may be destroyed by static electricity.)
AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
1. Separation of the engine oil dipstick, oil filler cap, PCV hose,
etc. may cause the engine to run out of tune.
2. Disconnection, looseness or cracks in the parts of the air
induction system between the throttle body and cylinder
head will cause air suction and cause the engine to run out
of tune.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
1. Before removing EFI wiring connectors, terminals, etc., firstdisconnect the power by either turning the ignition switch
OFF or disconnecting the battery terminals.
HINT: Always check the diagnosis code before disconnecting
the battery terminals.
2. When installing the battery, be especially careful not to
incorrectly connect the positive (+) and negative (±) cables.
3. Do not permit parts to receive a severe impact during removal or installation. Handle all EFI parts carefully, especially the
ECU.
4. Do not be careless during troubleshooting as there are numerous transistor circuits and even slight terminal contact
can cause further troubles.
5. Do not open the ECU cover.
6. When inspecting during rainy weather, take care to prevent entry of water. Also, when washing the engine compartment,
prevent water from getting on the EFI parts and wiring
connectors.
7. Parts should be replaced as an assembly.
