(15)Check to be sure that the idling ignition timing is the correct
timing.
Actual ignition timing: Approx. 15” BTDC
NOTE:d
(1) Ignition timing is variable even under normal operation.
(2) And it is automatically advanced at higher altitudes.
CURB IDLE SPEED INSPECTIONMllFMAB
(1) The vehicle should be prepared as follows before the
inspection.
lEngine coolant temperature: 80 - 95°C (176 - 205°F)
l Lights, electric cooling fan and accessories: OFF
l Transaxle: neutral
(P for A/T)l Steering wheel: neutral position
(2) Connect a tachometer. (Refer to P.l l-1 3.)
(3) Set a timing light.
(4) Using a jumper wire, ground the ignition timing adjusting
terminal.
(5) Start the engine and let it idle.
(6) Check whether or not the ignition timing is the standard
value; if not, adjust.
Standard value: 5” BTDC + 2”
NOTECheck the ignition timing with the Multi-use tester not
connected to the diagnosis connector.
(7) Remove the jumper wire from the ignition timing adjusting
terminal.
(8) When using the Multi-use tester, turn OFF the ignition
switch and connect the tester to the diagnosis connector.
(9) Idle the engine for two minutes.
(10)Check the idle speed.
Curb idle speed:
700 + 100 rpm
NOTE(1) The idling speed is automatically regulated by the
idle-speed control system.
(2)’ The engine speed indicated is a third of actual speed. In
other words, the reading of the tachometer times 3 is
actual speed.

MANIFOLD VACUUM INSPECTION
MllFNAR
(1) The vehicle should be repaired as follows before the
inspection.
lEngine coolant temperature: 80 - 95°C (176 - 205°F)‘dl Lights, electric cooling fan, and accessories: OFF
l Transaxle: Neutral
(P for A/T)l Steering wheel: neutral position
(2) Connect a tachometer. (Refer to P.l l-l 3.)
(3) Disconnect the vacuum hose from the nipple for taking off
fuel pressure regulator vacuum from the air intake plenum.
(4) Conncet a three-way joint between the removed vacuum
hose and the nipple and connect a vacuum gauge to the
joint.
(5) Start the engine and check that idle speed is within the
standard value range.
(6) Check the manifold vacuum.
Standard value:
*
Approx. 520 mmHg (20 in.Hg)
Approx. 495 mmHg (19 in.Hg)LASH ADJUSTERS CHECK
Ml 1 FEAFIf an abnormal noise is heard from the lash adjusters, check as
follows.
(1) After warming up the engine, stop it.
(2) While installed to the cylinder head, press the part where
the rocker arm contacts the lash adjuster at the very top. If
the adjuster is normal, the part pressed will feel very hard.
d
(3) If it easily moves all the way downward when pressed,
there is a malfunction of the lash adjuster and it should be
replaced with a new one.
(4) If it feels spongy or elastic, probably oil with air mixed in it
has entered the lash adjuster. Check whether the amount
of oil is too much or is not enough and the cause of air
becoming mixed into the oil is a damaged oil screen or oil
screen gasket.
(5) After repairing the cause of the air leak, warm up the engine
and then drive the vehicle at low speed for a while. Stop the
engine and leave it off for a few minutes; then restart the
engine and drive at low speed. Repeat this procedure
several times during the course of about one hour so as to
remove the air from the oil.

Symptom
The starter is used to crank the engine, but there is no combustion within the
cylinders, and the engine won’t start.
There is combustion within the cylinders, but then the engine soon stalls.(Starting takes a long
time.)Engine won’t start quickly.
Idling instability
(Rough idling)Engine speed doesn’t remain constant; changes during idling.Usually, a judgement can be based upon the movement of the tachometer
>.rpointer, and the vibration transmitted to the steering wheel, shift lever, body, etc.
EThis is called rough idling.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
MlBFHSU
BASIC IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT
NOTE(1) The basic idle speed has been factory-adjusted with the
speed adjusting screw (SAS) and does not normally require
adjustment.(2) If the adjustment is required, first check that the ignition
plug, injector,
ISC servo, and compression pressure are
normal.
(1) Before starting the inspection and adjustment procedures,set the vehicle in the following conditions:
l
Engine coolant temperature: 80 to 95°C (176 to 205°F)l Lights, electric cooling fan, accessories: OFF
lTransaxle: Neutral (P range on vehicles with automatic
transaxle)l Steering wheel: Straightforward position
(2) When using the multi-use tester, connect it to the diagnosis
connector.
NOTEThe connection of the multi-use tester grounds the
self-
diagnosis/data transmission selector terminal.
(3) When not using the multi-use tester, proceed as follows:
@) Insert a paper clip into the l-pin blue connector as
shown in the illustration. FUEL SYSTEM
- Service Adjustment Procedurks13-31
i
@ Connect a primary-voltage-detecting tachometer to the
paper clip.
NOTEThe
tacho/neter should read l/3 of the actual engine
speed. This means that the actual engine speed is thetachometer reading multiplied by 3.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTSHint 1: If the engine is hard to start when hot, check fuel pressure and check the injector for leaks.
Hint 2:If the injector does not when the engine that is hard to start is cranked, the following as well as the
Iinjector itself may be responsible.
(1) Faulty power supply circuit to the engine control unit, faulty ground circuit
\-J
-(2) Faulty control relay
Hint 3:(3) Faulty crank angle sensor, top dead center sensor
If there is any cylinder whose idle state remains unchanged when the fuel injection of injectors is cut
one after another during idling, make following checks about such cylinder.
(1) Injector and harness check
(2) Ignition plug and high tension cable check
(3) Compression pressure check
Hint 4: If the injector harness and individual part checks have resulted normal but the injector drive time is
out of specification, the following troubles are suspected.
(1)Poor combustion in the cylinder (faulty ignition plug, ignition coil, compression pressure, etc.)
(2) Loose EGR valve seating
(3) High engine resistance
