(3) Disconnect the three-way terminal and connect the manual
vacuum pump directly to the exhaust gas recirculation
(EGR) valve.
(4) Check whether the engine stalls or the idling is unstable
when a vacuum of 155 mmHg (5.9 in.Hg) or higher is
applied during idling.

vacuum nipple and connect a hand vacuum pump to the
nipple.

(2) Start the engine and check to see that, after raising the
engine speed by racing the engine, vacuum raises prop-
ortionately with the rise in engine speed.
NOTE
if there is a problem with the change in vacuum, it is
possible that the throttle body port may be clogged and
require cleaning.
EGR VALVE
INSPECTION MI’IICKF
(1) Remove the EGR valve and check it for sticking, deposit of
carbon, etc.
If such condition exists, clean with adequate solvent to en-
sure tight valve seat contact.
(2) Connect a hand vacuum pump to the EGR valve.
(3) Apply a vacuum of 500 mmHg (19.6 in.Hg.) and check air
tightness.
(4)Blow in air from one passage of the EGR to check condition
as follows.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install a new gasket and EGR valve, tighten bolts to
specified torque.
Specified tightening torque: 17-26 Nm (12-19 ft.lbs.1
THERMAL VACUUM VALVE Y~JICNG
INSPECTION
(1)Disconnect the vacuum hoses from the thermal vacuum
valve, and connect a hand vacuum pump to nipple of the
thermal vacuum valve.
(2) Apply a vacuum and check the air passage through the
thermal vacuum valve.

(4) Apply a vacuum and check for air-tightness when voltage
applied directly to the EGR solenoid when the voltage is
discontinued.
(5) Measure the resistance between the terminals of the sole-
noid valve.
Standard value: 36-44 Q [at 20°C (68”F)]
CATALYTIC CONVERTERMl7lcBc
INSPECTION
Check for damage, cracks or fusion and replace if faulty.
Caution
1. Operation of any type, including idling, should be
avoided if engine misfiring occurs. Under this condi-
tion the exhaust system will operate at abnormally high temperature, which may cause damage to the
catalyst or under-body parts of the vehicle.
2. Alteration or deterioration of ignition or fuel system, or any type of operating condition which results in
engine misfiring must be corrected to avoid overheat-
ing the catalytic converters.
3. Proper maintenance and tuneup according to manu-
facturer’s specifications should be made to correct theconditions as soon as possible.

- Troubleshooting
Based upon use of the troubleshooting
guide, the probable location of the prob-
lem should be estimated.
Checks should be made of fluid levels
and the condition of the ATF, as well as
1 found to be necessary
.
the condition of the manual control ca-
bles; adjustments should then be made if
If a presumption has been made that
there is an abnormal condition some-
where in the electronic-control system,
check the fault code, in order to determine
the probable location of the problem, by using a scan tool or voltmeter.
When the abnormal system is discovered,
check each element (sensors, etc.) one by
one, and make repairs as necessary.
When the abnormal condition is pre- sumed to be in the oil-pressure-control
When the result of the oil-pressure test does not satisfy the specified pressure,
1 passages for leakage, etc
.
check each system at places related to
the valve body, check the oil-pressure

TROUBLESHOOTING
Functional malfunctions of the ELGWT can lead to other
problems,
such
as those described
below:
(1) Improper
maintenance
and/or
adjustments
(2) Malfunctions of the electronic control functions
(3) Malfunctions of mechanical functions
(4) Malfunctions of hydraulic control functions
(5) Malfunctions of engine performance
etc.
In order

to properly
determine (“Troubleshoot”)
the
source
of
these
malfunctions,
it is first essential
to methodically ques-
tion
the
user
concerning

the details
of the problem,
such as
the

condition of
the
problem,
the
situation at
the
time the
problem
occurred,

and any other relevant
information, all in as much detail

as possible.
The user
should
also be asked
whether or not the problem has occurred more than once,
and under
what conditions. Subsequently,
certain

tests should
be conducted in a certain
order,
as described
at
the
left.
