SERVICE ADJUSTMENT
PROCEDURES
CURB IDLE SPEED INSPECTIONhll3MAE
(1) The vehicle should be prepared as follows before th
e
inspection.
lEngine coolant temperature: 85-95°C (185-203°F)
l Lights, electric cooling fan and accessories: OFF
l Transaxle: Neutral (P for vehicles with an automatic
transaxle)
(2) Connect a tachometer.
NOTE
Refer to
P.13-134 for information concerning connection Of
a tachometer.
(3) Set a timing light in position.
(4) Ground the terminal for adjustment of ignition timing.
(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 f 2”
(7) Stop grounding the terminal for adjustment of ignition timing.
(8) Let the engine idle for two minutes.
(9) Check the idling rpm.
Curb idle speed: 700
31100 rpm
NOTE
The idling rpm is automatically regulated by the idle aircontrol system.
(lO)lf not within the standard value range, refer to the CHECK
CHART CLASSIFIED BY PROBLEM SYMPTOMS and check

13-134FUEL SYSTEM (SOHC-16 VALVE> -Service Adjustment Procedures
BASIC IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENTMlIFHBX
NOTE
1. The standard idling speed has been adjusted, by the en-
gine speed adjusting screw, by the manufacturer, and
there should usually be no need for readjustment.
2. Use the following procedure to adjust when the idling speed drops due to an incorrect adjustment, high idling
speed, or when a load such as the air conditioning is ap-
plied on the engine.
3. The adjustment, if made, should be made after first con- firming that the spark plugs, the injectors, the idle air con-
trol motor, the compression pressure, etc. are all normal.
(I ) The vehicle should be prepared as follows before the inspec- tion and adjustment.
l Engine coolant temperature:
85-95°C (185-203°F)
l Lights, cooling fan and accessories: OFF
l Transaxle: neutral (A/T for
P range)
l Steering wheel: neutral position
(2) Connect the scan tool to the data link connector (white).
NOTE
When the scan tool is connected, the diagnostic test mode control terminal should be grounded.
(3) If the scan tool is not used, follow the steps below.
@I Insert a paper clip into the l-pin connector (blue) shown in the figure at the left.
0 Connect a primary-voltage-detection type of tacho-meter to the paper clip.

THROTTLE BODY (THROTTLE VALVE AREA)
CLEANINGMl3Rcv
(1)Start the engine and warm it up until the engine coolant is
heated to
80°C (176°F) or higher and then stop the engine.
(2)Remove the air intake hose from the throttle body.
(3)Plug the bypass passage inlet of the throttle body.
Caution
Do not allow cleaning solvent to enter the bypass
passage.
(4)Spray cleaning solvent into the valve through the throttle
body intake port and leave it for about 5 minutes.
(5)Start the engine, race it several times and idle it for about 1 minute. If the idling speed becomes unstable (or if the
engine stalls) due to the bypass passage being plugged,
slightly open the throttle valve to keep the engine
running.
(6)If the throttle valve deposits are not removed, repeat steps
(4) and (5).
(7)Unplug the bypass passage inlet.
(8)Attach the air intake hose.
(9)Use the scan tool to erase the diagnostic trouble code.
(10) Adjust the basic idle speed. (Refer to
P.13-134.)
NOTE
If the engrne hunts when idling after adjustment of the basic
idle speed, remove the
@ cable from the battery for 10
seconds or more, and then run the engine at idle again.
CLOSED THROTTLE POSITION SWITCH AND
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR ADJUSTMEy,zIFF
(1) Disconnect the connector of the throttle position sensor.
(2) Connect an ohmmeter between terminal
@I (closed throttle
position switch) and
@ (sensor ground) by using jumper
wires.
