3) Start engine and allow it to idle. Measure fuel pressure
with vacuum hose connected to fuel pressure regulator. Record fuel
pressure reading. See FUEL PUMP PERFORMANCE table. Disconnect and plug
vacuum hose from fuel pressure regulator. Record fuel pressure
reading.
4) Check for fuel pressure in fuel return hose by gently
pinching hose while increasing engine speed. If fuel volume is low,
fuel pressure in return hose will not be felt. Increase engine speed
to 2500-3000 RPM, 2-3 times. Return engine to idle. Fuel pressure
should not drop when engine is returned to idle.
5) Turn ignition off. Ensure fuel pressure reading does not
decrease within 2 minutes. If a decrease is noted, monitor speed of
decrease.
6) If fuel pressure is lower than specification, fuel
pressure drops at idle after increasing engine speed to 2500-3000 RPM,
or no fuel pressure in fuel return hose can be felt, check for clogged
fuel filter, or faulty fuel pressure regulator or fuel pump.
7) If fuel pressure is greater than specification, check for
a faulty fuel pressure regulator or plugged fuel return line. If fuel
pressure does not change when vacuum hose to regulator is connected or
disconnected, check for a leaking or clogged vacuum hose to fuel
pressure regulator or faulty fuel pressure regulator.
8) If fuel pressure decreases suddenly after engine is
stopped, check valve in fuel pump is not seated. Replace fuel pump. If
fuel pressure drops slowly, fuel injector is leaking or fuel pressure
regulator valve seat is leaking. Check for faulty fuel injector or
fuel pressure regulator. Repair as necessary.
9) When fuel pressure test is complete, repeat fuel pressure
release procedure before disconnecting fuel pressure gauge. Install
NEW "O" ring at end of high pressure fuel inlet line. Check for fuel
leaks.

MFI CONTROL RELAY
MFI control relay switches power to vehicle sensors and
actuators including Volume Airflow (VAF) sensor, crankshaft position
sensor, idle speed control, injectors and fuel pump. When ignition
switch is turned to RUN position, PCM energizes coils controlling
injectors, VAF sensor and idle air control. When ignition switch is
turned to START position, PCM energizes coils (through park/neutral
position switch on A/T models) to supply power to fuel pump. Relay
failure will cause a no-start condition. For testing procedure, see I
- SYSTEM/COMPONENT TESTS article.
IGNITION CHECKS
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
NOTE: Perform all circuit tests with a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter
(DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance, unless
stated otherwise in test procedure.
SPARK
Check for spark at coil wire (if applicable) and at each
spark plug wire using a high output spark tester. Check spark plug
wire resistance on suspect wires. Wire resistance should not exceed
22,000 ohms for all models except Eclipse 2.0L non-turbo and Montero.
On Eclipse 2.0L non-turbo, resistance should not exceed 8000 ohms. On
Montero, resistance should not exceed 26,000 ohms.
CAMSHAFT POSITION (CMP) SENSOR
For CMP sensor testing procedure, see G - TESTS W/CODES
article.
CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR
For CKP sensor testing procedure, see G - TESTS W/CODES
article.
