ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE) 6-1-95
DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1) Connect scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF.
2) Turn ON ignition switch and clear DTC, pending DTC and freeze frame data by using scan tool.
3) Increase vehicle speed to 80 – 90 km/h (50 – 56 mph).
4) Keep above vehicle speed for 5 min. or more (Throttle valve opening is kept constant in this step).
5) Stop vehicle and check if pending DTC exists by using scan tool. If not, check if catalyst monitoring test has
completed by using scan tool. If not in both of above checks (i.e., no pending DTC and catalyst monitoring
test not completed), check vehicle condition (environmental) and repeat Step 3) through 5).

and loose connection.
Is it in good condition?Go to Step 3. Repair or replace.
3 HO2S-2 output voltage check :
1) Check output voltage of HO2S-2 referring
Step 2 of DTC P0136 Diag. Flow Table.
Is check result satisfactory?Replace warm up three
way catalytic converter.Check “RED/BLK” and
“GRY/YEL” wires for open
and short, and connec-
tions for poor connection.

Evap canister purge system inspection
1) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
2) Hoist vehicle so that all wheels rotate freely.
3) Set M/T in “Neutral” or A/T in “P” position and parking brake.
4) Disconnect purge hose (1) from EVAP canister.
5) Place finger against the end of disconnected hose (1) and
check that vacuum is not felt there when engine is running at
idle speed.
6) Release parking brake lever, set transfer in “2H” and M/T in
“1st” or A/T in “L”.
7) Also check that vacuum is felt when engine speed is
increased to higher than about 1,500 r/min. and keep it for 3
min. or more. If check result is not described in steps 5) and
7), check EVAP canister purge valve, wire harness and vac-
uum passage.
Vacuum passage inspection
Start engine and run it at idle speed. With finger placed against
vacuum nozzle (1), check that vacuum is applied.
If it is not applied, clean vacuum passage by blowing compressed
air.
WARNING:
Make sure that transfer is set to “2H” range position for
this check. If it is set to “4H” or “4L” position, front and
rear wheels turn at high speed and a very dangerous sit-
uation may occur.
