8. Engine Control System
General
An engine control system based on the 5S-FE engine has been adopted. The knock sensor has been discon-
tinued because natural gas has a high octane value and is less susceptible to knocking.
The engine control system of 5S-FNE and 5S-FE engines are compared below.

BODY
To install the fuel tank in the front area of the luggage compartment, the upper back panel has been cut
for the 5S-FNE engine model.
To prevent reducing the rigidity of the body due to the upper back panel that has been cut out, as well as
for installing the fuel tank, rear seat back, and package tray trim, a performance rod is used for joining both
rear suspension strut towers for the 5S-FNE engine model.
The luggage door support has been changed from the torsion bar to the damper stay type for the 5S-FNE
engine model.
To prevent reducing the capacity of the luggage compartment due to the installation of the fuel tank in the
luggage compartment, the shape of the rear floor pan has been changed.
