Introduction
The engine has an ECM to control major systems such as fuel
injection control, fuel injection timing control, glow control system,
etc. The ECM accepts input signals from sensors and instantly
drives electronic fuel injection pump. It is essential that both input
and output signals are proper and stable. At the same time, it is
important that there are no problems such as vacuum leaks, or
other problems with the engine.
It is much more difficult to diagnose a problem that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent problems are
caused by poor electric connections or improper wiring. In this
case, careful checking of suspected circuits may help prevent the
replacement of good parts.
A visual check only may not ®nd the cause of the problems. A road
test with CONSULT or a circuit tester connected should be per-
formed. Follow the ``Work Flow'', EC-44.
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with
a customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The cus-
tomer can supply good information about such problems, especially
intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and under
what conditions they occur. A ``Diagnostic Worksheet'' like the
example on next page should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for ``conventional'' problems ®rst.
This will help troubleshoot driveability problems on an electronically
controlled engine vehicle.

CHECK INJECTION TIMING.
1. Set No. 1 piston at TDC on its com-
pression stroke.
2. Remove injection tubes and air bleeder
on the back of injection pump.
3. Set dial gauge so its indicator points to
somewhere between 1.0 and 2.0 mm
(0.039 and 0.079 in) on the scale.
4. Turn crankshaft 1 turn clockwise and
check that dial gauge indicates the
same value again.
5. Turn crankshaft counterclockwise about
100 degrees, then turn crankshaft
clockwise slowly, and set dial gauge
indicator to 0 mm at the position it
stops.
6. Turn crankshaft clockwise and set the
injection timing mark on the crankshaft
pulley to the timing indicator.
7. Read plunger lift.
Plunger lift:
0.92 0.04 mm (0.0362 0.0016 in)
+When repeating the checking, start
with step 5.

ADJUSTING
1. If plunger lift is not within the speci®ed
value, adjust by turning injection pump.
+If indication is smaller than the speci-
®ed value, turn pump body away
from engine.
+If indication is larger than the speci-
®ed value, turn pump body towards
engine.
2. Tighten injection pump securing bolts
and nuts.
Nut:
: 16-21Nzm
(1.6 - 2.1 kg-m, 12 - 15 ft-lb)
Bolt:
: 22-29Nzm
(2.2 - 3.0 kg-m, 16 - 22 ft-lb)
3. Remove dial gauge and install air
bleeder with new washer.
4. Install injection tubes.
Flare nut:
: 22-25Nzm
(2.2 - 2.5 kg-m, 16 - 18 ft-lb)
5. Bleed air from fuel system.

ECM Terminals and Reference Value (Cont'd)
EC-61

Injection Timing Control Valve
The injection timing control valve is built into the electronic fuel
injection pump. It controls the timer piston to change the fuel injec-
tion timing.
The timing control valve is a solenoid valve located in the line
between high-pressure chamber and low-pressure chamber. It
changes fuel pressure in the high-pressure chamber.
When current ¯ows through the solenoid (the solenoid turns ON),
the timing control valve opens, advancing fuel injection timing.
When current does not ¯ow through it, the timing control valve
closes, retarding injection timing.
The ECM emits an ON-OFF duty signal. The longer the OFF-
duration, the greater the advance angle. The longer the
ON-duration, the greater the retard angle. This means that chang-
ing the ON-OFF duty ratio makes it possible to achieve an optimal
advance angle and accurately control fuel injection timing.

PROCEDURE
Note: If both DTC 21 and 34 or 47 are displayed, perform
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC 34 or 47. (See EC-126
or EC-144.)
1) Turn ignition switch ``ON'' and select ``DATA MONITOR''
mode with CONSULT.
2) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating tem-
perature.
3) Run engine for 2 seconds at 3,000 rpm. Return engine
speed to idle, then increase to 3,000 rpm under no load.

1) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating tem-
perature.
2) Run engine for 2 seconds at 3,000 rpm. Return engine
speed to idle, then increase to 3,000 rpm under no load.
3) Turn ignition switch ``OFF'', wait at least 5 seconds and
then turn ``ON''.
4) Perform ``Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic
results)'' with ECM.
Note: If a malfunction occurs intermittently, conduct suitable
driving pattern for 10 minutes. This makes it possible to
determine DTC.
