14-40FUEL SYSTEM - Fuel Injection Control
BASIC INJECTOR ACTIVATION DURATION
In sequential injection under normal operating conditions, fuel
is injected into each cylinder once every cycle (i.e., two
crankshaft revolutions).
The injector activation duration required to inject the amount of
fuel that achieves the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio
(15 times as
much air, by weight, as gasoline, by weight) with regard to the
amount of air admitted during one cycle in each cylinder is
called the “basic injector activation duration”.
The amount of air admitted to each cylinder during one cycle is
calculated by the engine control unit based on the signals
provided by the air flow sensor and crank angle sensor.

t--“---t-+[Calculation of the Amount of Intake Air into Each Cylinder
during One Cycle]
The amount of intake air used by the four cylinders in one cycle
in a four-cylinder engine can be calculated by counting the
number of pulses output from the air flow sensor during the
period of time in which the crankshaft rotates two complete
revolutions, i.e., during which four complete pulses are output
from the crank angle sensor. The amount of intake air used by
each cylinder in one cycle can therefore be calculated by
counting the number of air flow sensor output pulses during
the time in which the crank angle sensor outputs one pulse.
The amount of intake air into each cylinder per cycle is denoted
by the symbol
A/N, which varies in proportion to the intake
manifold vacuum (absolute pressure).
[Calculation of the Engine
Speed]The engine speed can be calculated by measuring the
one-pulse frequency of the crank angle sensor signal.

ATarget position during operation

ENGINE IS IDLING
(1) Basic position
The basic position is preset as a map value Optimized
according to the engine coolant temperature. The idle
speed control servo is activated to conform to this position,
thereby maintaining the optimum idle speed.
This basic position of the idle control servo
diiectlycorresponds to the basic idle speed described earlier.

For models equipped with the automatic
transaxle.when
the position of the shift lever is anywhere other than the
“P” or “N” range, the servo position is increased in
proportion to the load of the torque-converter.
(3) Idle control servo position during operation of the power
steering system
When the power steering oil pressure switch is turned on
because the steering wheel is being turned while
thevehicle is stationary, the servo position is changed to
correspond to the increased power steering pump load.
(4) Servo position while the air conditioner is being operated
When the air conditioner switch is turned on, the servo
position is changed to correspond to the increased air
conditioner load.
(5) High altitude compensation
A correction is performed by increasing the opening of the
idle speed control servo to allow increasing bypass air flow
in order to compensate for the loss of intake air volume
(asmeasured by weight) caused by a reduction in intake air
density due to a drop in barometric pressure at increased
altitude.
(6) “Training” function
A “training” function that enters a value based upon the
engine rpm and the target rpm into the memon/,
andcorrects the servo position according to this value, is
provided in order to obtain an even higher degree of
precision of position control.

Ri... 4sThe central door-lock system, by which all doors can
be locked or unlocked (from the inside by using the
inside door lock knob at either front door, or from
the outside by using the door key), not only sewes
to reduce the trouble of individually locking orunlocking each door when passengers get out or
get in, but also maintains passenger safety.
For the central door-lock system, the operation of
the lock actuator is regulated by the door control
unit.
