5. Cover the spark plug hole with a shop towel etc., and
after the engine has been cranked, check that no foreign
material is adhering to the shop towel.
Caution
1.Keep away from the spark plug hole when crank-
ing.
2. If compression is measured with water, fuel,
etc., that has come from cracks inside the
these materials will become heated and gush
out from the spark plug hole, which is dangerous.
6.Set compression gauge to one of the spark plug hole s.
7. Crank the engine with the throttle valve fully open and
measure the compression pressure.
Standard (at engine speed of
1,350 (192 psi)
Limit (at engine speed of
Min. 1,020 (145 psi)
8.Measure the compression pressure for all the cylind ers,
and check that the pressure differences of the cyli nders
are below the limit.
Limit: Max. 100 (14 psi)
9. there is a cylinder with compression or a compression
difference that is outside the limit, pour a small amount
of engine oil through the spark plug hole, and repe at
the operations in steps 7 and 8.
(1) If the compression increases after oil is added , the
cause of the malfunction is a worn or damaged pisto n
ring and/or cylinder inner surface.
(2) If the compression does not rise after oil is added,
the cause is a burnt or defective valve seat, or pr essure
is leaking from the gasket.
10. Connect the crankshaft position sensor connecto r.
11. Install the spark plugs and spark plug cables.
12. Use the scan tool to erase the diagnostic troub le codes,
or disconnect the negative battery cable than
10 seconds and reconnect it.
NOTE
This will erase the diagnostic trouble code resulting from
the crankshaft position sensor connector

GENERAL INFORMATION
The Fuel Injection System consists
of sensors which detect the engine conditions,
the POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE(PCM) which controls the system based on
signals from these sensors, and actuators
which operate under the control of the PCM.
FUEL INJECTION CONTROL
The injector drive times and injector timing are
controlled so that the optimum air/fuel mixture
is supplied to the engine to correspond to the
continually-changing engine operation condi-
tions.
A single injector is mounted at the intake port
of each cylinder. Fuel is sent under pressure
from the fuel tank by the fuel pump, with the
pressure regulated by the fuel pressureregulator. The regulated fuel is distributed
to each of the injectors. Fuel injection is normally carried out once for
each cylinder for every two rotations of the
crankshaft. The firing order is
This
IDLE AIR CONTROL The idle speed’ is kept at the optimum speed
by controlling the amount of air that bypasses
the throttle valve in accordance with changes in idling conditions and engine load during
idling.
The PCM drives the idle air control (IAC) motor
to keep the engine running at the idle
target speed in accordance with the engine
IGNITION TIMING CONTROL
The ignition power transistor is built into the
PCM. It turns the ignition primary circuit on
and off to respectively supply and cut off primary
current flow to the ignition coil. The PCM carries
activities such fuel
injection control, idle air control and ignition
timing control.
In addition, the
diagnostict e s twhich simplify
troubleshooting when a problem develops.
is called The PCM
air/fuel mixture by carrying out “open-loop”
control when the engine is cold or operating
under high load conditions in to maintain
engine performance.
In addition, when the engine warm or
operating under normal
the PCM
controls the air/fuel mixture by using the heated
oxygen sensor signal to carry out “closed-loop”
control in order to obtain the theoretical air/fuel
mixture ratio that provides the maximum
cleaning
from the three way
catalyst.
coolant temperature and air conditioning load.
In addition, when the air conditioning switch
is turned off and on while the engine is idling,
the
motor operates to adjust the throttle
valve bypass air amount in accordance with
the engine load conditions in order to avoid
fluctuations in the engine speed.
This controls the ignition timing in order to
provide the optimum ignition timing with respect
to the engine operating conditions. The ignition
timing is determined by the PCM from the
engine speed, intake air volume, engine coolant
temperature and atmospheric pressure.
