ADJUSTMENT
Note
a) Before adjusting the idle speed and idle
mixture, be sure the ignition timing, spark
plugs, carburetor float level, etc., are all in
normal operation condition.
b)Turn off all electrical loads.
c) This adjustment must be done while the fan
motor is not operating.
Idle Speed
1. Connect a tachometer to the engine.
2. Warm up the engine, and check that the choke
valve has fully opened.
3. Check the idle speed.
Specification
MTX ATX (in N range)
Specification Others
FE 8Valve Unleaded fuel F6 F8 & FE
Idle speed rpm 800 +6S 850 +5S 950 +5o° 900 +5§
4. If not within specification, adjust the idle speed by
turning the throttle adjust screw.
Caution
After adjusting the idle speed, the dashpot ad-
justment should be checked and adjusted if
necessary.
Idle Mixture
[Except FE 8Valve—Unleaded Fuel]
Adjust the idle mixture as follows, after adjusting the
idle speed.
1. Disconnect the secondary air hoses from the reed
valves and plug them. (If equipped.)
2. Insert an exhaust gas analyzer into the tail pipe and
measure the CO concentration.
CO concentration: 2.0 ± 0.5%
3. If not within the specification, remove the blind cap
from the mixture adjust screw.

TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE
Note
Step 1 under symptom is to quickly determine what system or unit may be at fault by use of the SST. (Self-Diagnosis Checker 49 H018 9A1)
1st:
Check input sensors and output solenoid valves with the
SST.
(Refer
to
page 4B—10.)

2nd:
Check other switches with the
SST.
(Refer
to
page 4B—26.)

3rd:
Check the following items:

11
Poor acceleration, hesita-
tion or lack of power
Runs rough on deceleration
Afterburn in exhaust system
Poor fuel consumption
Engine stalls or rough after hot starting
Electrical system
1) Battery condition
2) Fuses

Fuel system
1) Fuel level 2) Fuel leakage
3) Fuel filter 4) Idle speed

Engine
1) Compression 2) Overheating

Ignition system

1) Ignition spark 2) Ignition timing

Intake air system
1)
Air
cleaner element 2) Vacuum
or air
leakage 3) Vacuum hose routing
4) Accelerator cable

Others
1) Clutch slippage 2) Brake dragging

Fails emission test 4th:
Check Fuel and Emission Control Systems. (Refer
to
page 4B—8.)

ADJUSTMENT
IDLE SPEED
Preparation
1) Check the condition of the engine (plugs, leaks in
hoses, etc.).
2) Make sure all accessories are OFF.
3) Warm up the engine and run it for three minutes
at 2,500—3,000 rpm in neutral.
4) Check the initial ignition timing and adjust if
necessary.
Inspection and Adjustment
Caution
Disconnect the air bypass solenoid connec-
tor when checking and adjusting the idle
speed.
1. Check that the idle speed is within specification.
Specification:
MTX—800 +58 rpm
ATX—900 +58 rpm (P range)
2. If the idle speed is not within specification, remove
the blind cap from the throttle body and adjust it
by turning the air adjust screw.
IDLE MIXTURE
Because an automatic compensation function
for air/fuel mixture is built into the engine con-
trol unit, it is not necessary to check and adjust
the idle mixture.
