ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (SFI FOR G13) 6-1-31
SCAN TOOL DATA DEFINITIONS
FUEL SYSTEM (FUEL SYSTEM STATUS)
Air / fuel ratio feedback loop status displayed as either
open or closed loop. Open indicates that ECM (PCM)
ignores feedback from the exhaust oxygen sensor.
Closed indicates final injection duration is corrected
for oxygen sensor feedback.
CALC LOAD (CALCULATED LOAD VALUE, %)
Engine load displayed as a percentage of maximum
possible load. Value is calculated mathematically us-
ing the formula: actual (current) intake air volume

maximum possible intake air volume x 100%.
COOLANT TEMP.
(ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE, C, F)
It is detected by engine coolant temp. sensor
SHORT FT B1 (SHORT TERM FUEL TRIM, %)
Short term fuel trim value represents short term
corrections to the air / fuel mixture computation. A val-
ue of 0 indicates no correction, a value greater than
0 means an enrichment correction, and a value less
than 0 implies an enleanment correction.
LONG FT B1 (LONG TERM FUEL TRIM, %)
Long term fuel trim Value represents long term correc-
tions to the air / fuel mixture computation. A value of 0
indicates no correction, a value greater than 0 means
an enrichment correction, and a value less than 0 im-
plies an enleanment correction.
MAP (INTAKE MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE
PRESSURE, kPa, inHg)
It is detected by manifold absolute pressure sensor and
used (among other things) to compute engine load.
ENGINE SPEED (rpm)
It is computed by reference pulses from crankshaft
position sensor.
VEHICLE SPEED (km / h, MPH)
It is computed based on pulse signals from vehicle
speed sensor.
IGNITION ADVANCE
(IGNITION TIMING ADVANCE FOR NO.1
CYLINDER, )
Ignition timing of NO.1 cylinder is commanded by
ECM (PCM). The actual ignition timing should be
checked by using the timing light.
INTAKE AIR TEMP. (C, F)
It is detected by intake air temp. sensor and used to
determine the amount of air passing into the intake
manifold as air density varies with temperature.
MAF (MASS AIR FLOW RATE, gm / s, lb / min)
It represents total mass of air entering intake manifold
which is computed based on signals from MAP sen-
sor, IAT sensor, TP sensor, etc.
THROTTLE POS
(ABSOLUTE THROTTLE POSITION, %)
When throttle position sensor is fully closed position,
throttle opening is indicated as 0% and 100% full open
position.
OXYGEN SENSOR B1 S1
(HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR-1, V)
It indicates output voltage of HO2S-1 installed on ex-
haust manifold (pre-catalyst).
OXYGEN SENSOR B1 S2
(HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR-2, V)
It indicates output voltage of HO2S-2 installed on ex-
haust pipe (post-catalyst). It is used to detect catalyst
deterioration.
DESIRED IDLE (DESIRED IDLE SPEED, rpm)
The Desired Idle Speed is an ECM (PCM) internal pa-
rameter which indicates the ECM (PCM) requested
idle. If the engine is not running, this number is not valid.
TP SENSOR VOLT (THROTTLE POSITION
SENSOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE, V)
The Throttle Position Sensor reading provides throttle
valve opening information in the form of voltage.
INJ PULSE WIDTH
(FUEL INJECTION PULSE WIDTH, msec.)
This parameter indicates time of the injector drive
(valve opening) pulse which is output from ECM
(PCM) (but injector drive time of NO.1 cylinder for
multiport fuel injection).
IAC FLOW DUTY (IDLE AIR (SPEED) CONTROL
DUTY, %)
This parameter indicates current flow time rate within
a certain set cycle of IAC valve (valve opening rate)
which controls the amount of bypass air (idle speed).
TOTAL FUEL TRIM (%)
The value of Total Fuel Trim is obtained by putting val-
ues of short Term Fuel Trim and Long Term Fuel Trim
together. This value indicates how much correction is
necessary to keep the air / fuel mixture stoichiomet-
rical.
BATTERY VOLTAGE (V)
This parameter indicates battery positive voltage in-
putted from main relay to ECM (PCM).

WARNING:

When performing a road test, select a place where there is no traffic or possibility of a traffic accident
and be very careful during testing to avoid occurrence of an accident.

Road test should be carried out with 2 persons, a driver and a tester, on a level road.

6B-2 ENGINE COOLING
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
COOLING SYSTEM CIRCULATION
During engine warm-up (thermostat closed), the water pump discharges coolant into the water jacket chamber
adjacent to No.1 cylinder. Coolant then flows through the cylinder block and the cylinder heat. Coolant then returns
to the water pump through intake manifold, heater inlet hose, heater unit, heater outlet hose, and water intake pipe.
During normal temperatures (thermostat open), coolant takes the same basic route but is now allowed to flow past
the thermostat, the inlet hose and the radiator, and then back to the water pump through the outlet hose and the
water intake pipe.

2. Radiator
ENGINE COOLING 6B-3
THERMOSTAT
A wax pellet type thermostat is used in the coolant outlet passage
to control the flow of engine coolant, to provide fast engine warm
up and to regulate coolant temperatures.
A wax pellet element is hermetically contained in a metal case, and
expands when heated and contracts when cooled.
When the pellet is heated and expands, the metal case pushes
down the valve to open it.
As the pellet is cooled, the contraction allows the spring to close the
valve.
Thus, the valve remains closed while the coolant is cold, preventing
circulation of coolant through the radiator.
At this point, coolant is allowed to circulate only throughout the en-
gine to warm it quickly and evenly.
As the engine warms, the pellet expands and the thermostat valve
opens, permitting coolant to flow through the radiator.
In the top portion of the thermostat, an air bleed valve (1) is pro-
vided; this valve is for venting out the gas or air, if any, that is accu-
mulated in the circuit.

COOLING FAN
The cooling fan is driven by electric motor, and the motor is acti-
vated by ECM / PCM (engine coolant temp.). For its details, refer to
Section 6E.
WARNING:
Keep hands, tools, and clothing away from engine cooling
fan to help prevent personal injury. This fan is electric and
can come on whether or not the engine is running. The fan
can start automatically in response to the ECM / PCM (en-
gine coolant temp.) with the ignition switch in the “ON”
position.

MAINTENANCE
COOLANT
The coolant recovery system is standard. The coolant in the radiator expands with heat, and the overflow is col-
lected in the reservoir tank.
When the system cools down, the coolant is drawn back into the radiator.
The cooling system has been filled at the factory with a quality coolant that is either 50 / 50 mixture of water and
GOLDEN CRUISER 1200 (ethylene glycol antifreeze.) or 30 / 70 mixture of water and GOLDEN CRUISER 1200.
The 50 / 50 mixture coolant solution provides freezing protection to – 36
C (– 33
F), the 30 / 70 mixture coolant solu-
tion provides freezing protection to – 16
C (3
F).
When changing the engine coolant, use mixture of 50% water and 50% GOLDEN CRUISER 1200 for the market
where ambient temperature falls lower than – 16
C (3
F) in winter and mixture of 70% water and 30% GOLDEN
CRUISER 1200 for the market where ambient temperature doesn’t fall lower than – 16
C (3
F).
NOTE:
Alcohol or methanol base coolant or plain water alone should not be used in cooling system at any time
as damage to cooling system could occur.
Even in a market where no freezing temperature is anticipated, mixture of 70% water and 30% ethylene
glycol antifreeze (Antifreeze / Anticorrosion coolant) should be used for the purpose of corrosion protec-
tion and lubrication.
