3. Perform no load racing at the engine speed
shown in the graph, then idle the engine for more
than 30 s after the cooling fan is stopped. If
possible, monitor RPM PID for engine speed and
FAN1 PID for cooling fan condition during this
procedure.
4. Turn ignition key off then on again.
5. Access to RFCFLAG PID to confirm PCM
adaptive memory condition. If RFCFLAG PID is
“Learnt”, PCM Adaptive Memory Procedure Drive
is completed.
6. If RFCFLAGPID is still “Not Learnt”, go back to
Step 1.
HO2S Heater, HO2S, and TWC Repair Verification Drive Mode
1. Access to RFCFLAG PID to confirm PCM adaptive memory condition. If RFCFLAG PID is OFF, perform PCM
Adaptive Memory Procedure Drive first.
2. If RFCFLAG PID is ON, start the engine and warm it up completely.
3. Verify all accessory loads (A/C, headlights, blower fan, rear window defroster) are off.
4. Drive the vehicle as shown in the graph; first drive in zone O, then A or B, followed by C or D, finally E or F.
Driving condition before the constant speed driving is not specified.

NO.14 POOR FUEL ECONOMYA6E398018881203
Diagnostic procedure
14 POOR FUEL ECONOMY
DESCRIPTIONFuel economy is unsatisfactory.
POSSIBLE CAUSE•Contaminated air cleaner element
•VIS malfunction (if equipped)
•Engine cooling system malfunction
•Improper ATF level (ATX)
•Weak spark
•Poor fuel quality
•Erratic or no signal from CMP sensor
•Clutch slippage (MTX)
•VTCS malfunction
•Improper variable valve timing control system operation (if equipped)
•Improper coolant level
•Inadequate fuel pressure
•Spark plug malfunction
•PCV valve malfunction
•Brake dragging
•Improper valve timing due to jumping out of timing belt
•Contaminated MAF sensor
•Improper engine compression
•Exhaust system clogging
•Improper electrically controlled 4WD system operation
Warning
The following troubleshooting flow chart contains fuel system diagnosis and repair
procedures. Read following warnings before performing fuel system services:
•Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always
keep sparks and flames away from fuel.
•Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or
death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete
“BEFORE REPAIR PROCEDURE” and “AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE” described in this
manual.
Caution
•Disconnecting/connecting quick release connector without cleaning it may possibly cause
damage to fuel pipe and quick release connector. Always clean quick release connector
joint area before disconnecting/connecting, and make sure that it is free of foreign material.
STEP INSPECTION RESULTS ACTION
1 Inspect for following:
•Air cleaner element for contamination
•ATF level
•Fuel quality
•Coolant level
•Brake dragging
•Clutch slippage
Are all items okay?Yes Go to next step.
No Service as necessary.
Repeat Step 1.
2 Connect WDS or equivalent to DLC-2.
Retrieve any continuous memory, KOEO and
KOER DTCs.
Are there any DTCs displayed?YesDTC is displayed:
Go to appropriate DTC test.
NoNo DTC is displayed:
Go to next step.
3 Access ECT PID.
Drive vehicle while monitoring PID.
(See F1–33 PCM INSPECTION (4WD).)
Is PID within specification?Yes Go to next step.
No Inspect for coolant leakage, cooling fan and condenser
fan operations or thermostat operation.
