PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE (FOR YOUR INFORMATION)
ItemsSymptom
StartingWon’t startThe starter is used to crank the engine, but there is no combustion within the
cylinders, and the engine won’t start.
Fires up and diesThere is combustion within the cylinders, but then the engine soon stalls.
Hard startingEngine starts after cranking a while.
Idling
stability
HuntingEngine speed doesn’t remain constant; changes at idle.
stability
Rough idleUsually, a judgement can be based upon the movement of the tachometer
pointer, and the vibration transmitted to the steering wheel, shift lever, body, etc.
This is called rough idle.
Incorrect idle speedThe engine doesn’t idle at the usual correct speed.
Engine stall
(Die out)The engine stalls when the foot is taken from the accelerator pedal, regardless
of whether the vehicles is moving or not.
Engine stall
(Pass out)The engine stalls when the accelerator pedal is depressed or while it is being
used.
DrivingHesitation Sag“Hesitation” is the delay in response of the vehicle speed (engine speed) that
occurs when the accelerator is depressed in order to accelerate from the speed
at which the vehicle is now traveling, or a temporary drop in vehicle speed
(engine speed) during such acceleration.
Serious hesitation is called “sag”. (Refer to Fig. 1)
Poor accelerationPoor acceleration is inability to obtain an acceleration corresponding to the
degree of throttle opening, even though acceleration is smooth, or the inability
to reach maximum speed.
StumbleEngine speed increase is delayed when the accelerator pedal is initially
depressed for acceleration. (Refer to Fig. 2)
ShockThe feeling of a comparatively large impact or vibration when the engine is
accelerated or decelerated.
SurgeThis is repeated surging ahead during constant speed travel or during variable
speed travel.
KnockingA sharp sound like a hammer striking the cylinder walls during driving and which
adversely affects driving.
StoppingRun on
(“Dieseling”)The condition in which the engine continues to run after the ignition switch is
turned to “LOCK” (OFF) position. Also called “Dieseling”.

CHECK CHART FOR RESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY
BETWEEN TERMINALS
1. Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” (OFF) position.
2. Disconnect the engine-ECU connector.
3. Measure the resistance and check for continuity between
the terminals of the engine-ECU harness-side connector
while referring to the check chart.
NOTE
(1) When measuring resistance and checking continuity,
a harness for checking contact pin pressure should
be used instead of inserting a test probe.
(2) Checking need not be carried out in the order given
in the chart.
Caution
If the terminals that should be checked are mistaken,
or if connector terminals are not correctly shorted
to earth, damage may be caused to the vehicle wiring,
sensors, engine-ECU and/or ohmmeter.
Be careful to prevent this!
4. If the ohmmeter shows any deviation from the standard
value, check the corresponding sensor, actuator and
related electrical wiring, and then repair or replace.
5. After repair or replacement, recheck with the ohmmeter
to confirm that the repair or replacement has corrected
the problem.

between.
2. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to the idle
speed control servo-side connector terminal No. 1,
terminal No. 3, terminal No. 4 and terminal No. 6
respectively.

4. If not within the standard value, loosen the throttle position
sensor mounting bolts. Then rotate the sensor body to
adjust.
5. Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” (OFF) position.
6. Remove the MUT-II. If the MUT-IIis not used, remove
the special tool, and then connect the throttle position
sensor connector.
7. If a diagnosis code is displayed, erase the diagnosis code
by using the MUT-IIor disconnect the negative battery
cable from the battery terminal and then leave it for at
least ten seconds. After that, reconnect the battery cable,
and then let the engine run at idle for approximately 10
minutes.
BASIC IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT
NOTE
(1) The basic idling speed has been adjusted by the
speed adjusting screw by the manufacturer, and there
should usually be no need for readjustment.
(2) If the adjustment has been changed by mistake, the
idle speed may become too high or the idle speed
may drop too low when loads from components such
as the A/C are placed on the engine. If this occurs,
adjust by the following procedure.
(3) The adjustment, if made, should be made after first
confirming that the spark plugs, the injectors, the idle
speed control servo, the compression pressure, etc.,
are all normal.
1. Before inspection and adjustment, set the vehicle to the
pre-inspection condition.
2. Connect the MUT-IIto the diagnosis connector (16-pin).
NOTE
When the MUT-IIis connected, the diagnosis control
terminal should be earthed.
3. Start the engine and run at idle.
4. Select the item No. 30 of the MUT-IIActuator test.
NOTE
This holds the idle speed control servo at the basic step
to adjust the basic idle speed.
5. Check the basic idle speed.
Standard value: 850±100 r/min
NOTE
(1) The engine speed may be 20 to 100 r/min lower
than indicated above for a new vehicle [driven
approximately 500 km or less], but no adjustment
is necessary.
(2) If the engine stalls or the engine speed is low even
though the vehicle has been driven approximately
500 km or more, it is probable that deposits are
adhered to the throttle valve, so clean it. (Refer to
P.13A-126.)

MPI -On-vehicle Service13A-128
6. If not within the standard value range, turn the speed
adjusting screw to make the necessary adjustment.
7. Press the MUT-IIclear key, and release the idle speed
control servo from the Actuator test mode.
NOTE
Unless the idle speed control servo is released, the
Actuator test mode will continue 27 minutes.
8. Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” (OFF) position.
9. Disconnect the MUT-II.
10. Start the engine again and let it run at idle speed for
approximately 10 minutes; check that the idling condition
is normal.
FUEL PRESSURE TEST
1. Release residual pressure from the fuel pipe line to prevent
fuel gush out. (Refer to P.13A-125.)
2. Disconnect the high-pressure fuel hose at the delivery
pipe side.
Caution
Cover the hose connection with rags to prevent splash
of fuel that could be caused by some residual pressure
in the fuel pipe line.
3. Remove the union joint and bolt from the special tool
(adapter hose) and instead attach the special tool (hose
adapter) to the adapter hose.
4. Install the special tool (for measuring the fuel pressure)
that was set up in step 3.

(1) Install the special tool (for measuring the fuel pressure)
between the high-pressure fuel hose and the delivery
pipe.
(2) Install the fuel pressure gauge set (special tool) on
the special tool (for measuring the fuel pressure)
putting the gasket between them.
(3) Connect the lead wire of the fuel pressure gauge
set (special tool) to the power supply (cigarette lighter
socket) and to the MUT-II.

(1) Install the fuel pressure gauge on the special tool
(for measuring the fuel pressure) putting a suitable
O-ring or gasket between them.
(2) Install the special tool which was set up in step (1)
between the high-pressure fuel hose and the delivery
pipe.
5. Connect the MUT-IIto the diagnosis connector.
6. Turn the ignition switch to “ON” position. (But do not start
the engine.)
7. Select “Item No. 07” from the MUT-IIActuator test to
drive the fuel pump. Check that there are no fuel leaks
from any parts.
8. Finish the actuator test or turn the ignition switch to “LOCK”
(OFF) position.
9. Start the engine and run at idle.
10. Measure fuel pressure while the engine is running at
idle.
Standard value: Approximately 230 kPa at cerb idle
11. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the fuel pressure
regulator and measure fuel pressure with the hose end
closed by a finger.
Standard value: 289 - 309 kPa at cerb idle
12. Check to see that fuel pressure at idle does not drop
even after the engine has been raced several times.
13. Racing the engine repeatedly, hold the fuel return hose
lightly with fingers to feel that fuel pressure is present
in the return hose.
NOTE
If the fuel flow rate is low, there will be no fuel pressure
in the return hose.Fuel pressure gauge set
