1. General
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The on-board diagnostics (OBD) system detects and
indicates a fault in various inputs and outputs of the com-
plex electronic control. CHECK ENGINE malfunction indi-
cator lamp (MIL) in the combination meter indicates occur-
rence of a fault or trouble.

Further, against such a failure or sensors as may disable
the drive, the fail-safe function is provided to ensure the
minimal driveability.

The OBD system incorporated with the vehicles within
this engine family complies with Section 1968.1, California
Code of Regulations (OBD-II regulation). The OBD system
monitors the components and the system malfunction
listed in Engine Section which affects on emissions.

When the system decides that a malfunction occurs, MIL
illuminates. At the same time of the MIL illumination or
blinking, a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) and a freeze
frame engine conditions are stored into on-board com-
puter.

The OBD system stores freeze frame engine condition
data (engine load, engine coolant temperature, fuel trim,
engine speed and vehicle speed, etc.) into on-board com-
puter when it detects a malfunction first.

If the OBD system detects the various malfunctions
including the fault of fuel trim or misfire, the OBD system
first stores freeze frame engine conditions about the fuel
trim or misfire.

When the malfunction does not occur again for three
consecutive trips, MIL is turned off, but DTC remains at
on-board computer.

The OBD-II system is capable of communication with a
general scan tool (OBD-II general scan tool) formed by ISO
9141 CARB.

The OBD-II diagnostics procedure is different from the
usual diagnostics procedure. When troubleshooting OBD-II
vehicles, connect Subaru select monitor or the OBD-II gen-
eral scan tool to the vehicle.
A: ENGINE
1. ENGINE AND EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM

The Multipoint Fuel Injection (MFI) system is a system
that supplies the optimum air-fuel mixture to the engine for
all the various operating conditions through the use of the
latest electronic technology.
With this system fuel, which is pressurized at a constant
pressure, is injected into the intake air passage of the cyl-
inder head. The injection quantity of fuel is controlled by an
intermittent injection system where the electro-magnetic
injection valve (fuel injector) opens only for a short period
of time, depending on the quantity of air required for one
cycle of operation. In actual operation, the injection quan-
