BATTERIES
Proper operation of any electrical system or component can be
affected by battery condition. The battery(ies) must meet or exceed
minimum specification for vehicle as equipped and test to that
specific battery's CCA.
Definition of Terms
* Battery Performance Testing
Testing that determines whether or not a battery meets both
vehicle OEM and battery manufacturer's specifications.
* Cold Cranking Amp (CCA) Rating
The number of amperes a new, fully charged battery at
0
F (-17.8 C) can deliver for 30 seconds and maintain at
least a voltage of 1.2 volts per cell (7.2 volts for a
12-volt battery).
* Cranking Amps (CA)
The number of amperes a new, fully charged battery, typically
at 32
F (0 C) can deliver for 30 seconds and maintain at
least a voltage of 1.2 volts per cell (7.2 volts for a
12-volt battery).
* OEM Cranking Amps
The minimum CCA required by the original vehicle manufacturer
for a specific vehicle.

Exhaust System Backpressure
The exhaust system can be tested with a vacuum or pressure
gauge. If using a pressure gauge, remove HO2S or air injection check
valve (if equipped). Connect a 0-5 psi pressure gauge and run engine
at 2500 RPM. If exhaust system backpressure is greater than 2 psi,
exhaust system or catalytic converter is plugged.
If using a vacuum gauge, connect vacuum gauge hose to intake
manifold vacuum port. Start engine. Observe vacuum gauge. Open
throttle part way and hold steady. If vacuum gauge indication slowly
drops after stabilizing, inspect exhaust system for restriction.
FUEL SYSTEM
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
WARNING: ALWAYS relieve fuel pressure before disconnecting any fuel
injection-related component. DO NOT allow fuel to contact
engine or electrical components.
RELIEVING FUEL PRESSURE
1) On Diamante, disconnect fuel pump harness connector at
fuel tank from underneath vehicle. On Montero and Montero Sport,
remove cargo compartment carpet, remove access plate and disconnect
fuel pump harness connector. On all other models, remove rear seat
cushion, remove access plate (if required) and disconnect fuel pump
harness connector.
2) On all models, start engine. Let engine run until it
stops. Turn ignition off. Disconnect negative battery cable. Connect
fuel pump harness connector. Install rear seat and/or carpet as
necessary.
WARNING: Before disconnecting high pressure fuel hose at fuel
Page 704 of 1501
delivery pipe, cover fuel hose connection with a rag. Some
residual fuel pressure may still be in system.
FUEL PRESSURE
1) Relieve fuel pressure. See RELIEVING FUEL PRESSURE. On
models with fuel rail service valve, connect fuel pressure gauge to
fuel rail. On models without fuel rail service valve, disconnect high
pressure fuel inlet line at fuel rail. Remove throttle body bracket
(if necessary). Connect fuel pressure gauge with adapter between fuel
rail and high pressure fuel inlet line. See Fig. 1.

2) On Eclipse 2.0L non-turbo and Montero Sport, use scan tool
to operate fuel pump. On all other models, operate fuel pump by
connecting battery voltage to fuel pump test terminal. See
FUEL PUMP TEST TERMINAL LOCATION table. Ensure no fuel leaks are
present. Disconnect battery voltage from fuel pump test terminal.
