PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE (FOR YOUR INFORMATION) MAIN

Items Symptom
Starting Won’t start The starter is used to crank the engine, but there is no combustion within the Group
cylinders, and the engine won’t start.
13
Fires up and dies There is combustion within the cylinders, but then the engine soon stalls.
Hard starting Engine starts after cranking a while.

13A
Idling Hunting Engine speed doesn’t remain constant; changes at idle.
stability
Rough idle Usually, a judgement can be based upon the movement of the tachometer
pointer, and the vibration transmitted to the steering wheel, shift lever, body,
etc. This is called rough idle.
Incorrect idle The engine doesn’t idle at the usual correct speed.
speed
Engine stall The engine stalls when the foot is taken from the accelerator pedal,
(Die out) regardless of whether the vehicles is moving or not.
Engine stall The engine stalls when the accelerator pedal is depressed or while it is being
(Pass out) used.
Driving Hesitation Sag “Hesitation” is the delay in response of the vehicle speed (engine speed) that
occurs when the accelerator is depressed in order to accelerate from the
speed at which the vehicle is now traveling, or a temporary drop in vehicle
speed (engine speed) during such acceleration.
Serious hesitation is called “sag”. (Refer to Fig. 1)
Poor acceleration Poor acceleration is inability to obtain an acceleration corresponding to the

degree of throttle opening, even though acceleration is smooth, or the inability
to reach maximum speed.
Stumble Engine speed increase is delayed when the accelerator pedal is initially
depressed for acceleration. (Refer to Fig. 2)
Shock The feeling of a comparatively large impact or vibration when the engine is
accelerated or decelerated.
Surge This is repeated surging ahead during constant speed travel or during
variable speed travel.
Knocking A sharp sound like a hammer striking the cylinder walls during driving and
which adversely affects driving.
Stopping Run on The condition in which the engine continues to run after the ignition switch is
(“Dieseling”) turned to LOCK (OFF) position. Also called “Dieseling”.

CHECK AT THE ECU TERMINALS MAIN
TERMINAL VOLTAGE CHECK CHART
1. Connect a needle-nosed wire probe (test harness:
MB991223 or paper clip) to a voltmeter probe. Group
2. Insert the needle-nosed wire probe into each of the 13
engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-A/T-ECU <A/T> connector
terminals from the wire side, and measure the voltage
while referring to the check chart.
NOTE 13A
(1) Make the voltage measurement with the engine-ECU
<M/T> or engine-A/T-ECU <A/T> connectors
connected.
(2) You may find it convenient to pull out the engine-ECU
<M/T> or engine-A/T-ECU <A/T> to make it easier
to reach the connector terminals.
(3) The checks can be carried out off the order given
in the chart.
Caution
Short-circuiting the positive (+) probe between a
connector terminal and earth could damage the
vehicle wiring, the sensor, engine-ECU <M/T> or
engine-A/T-ECU <A/T> or all of them. Be careful to
prevent this!
3. If voltmeter shows any division from standard value, check
the corresponding sensor, actuator and related electrical
wiring, then repair or replace.
4. After repair or replacement, recheck with the voltmeter
to confirm that the repair has corrected the problem.

BETWEEN TERMINALS
1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (OFF) position.
2. Disconnect the engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-A/T-ECU
<A/T> connector. Group
3. Measure the resistance and check for continuity between 13
the terminals of the engine-ECU <M/T> or
engine-A/T-ECU <A/T> harness-side connector while
referring to the check chart.
13A
NOTE
(1) When measuring resistance and checking continuity,
a harness for checking contact pin pressure should
be used instead of inserting a test probe.
(2) Checking need not be carried out in the order given
in the chart.
Caution
If the terminals that should be checked are mistaken,
or if connector terminals are not correctly shorted
to earth, damage may be caused to the vehicle wiring,
sensors, engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-A/T-ECU <A/T>
and/or ohmmeter.
Be careful to prevent this!
4. If the ohmmeter shows any deviation from the standard
value, check the corresponding sensor, actuator and
related electrical wiring, and then repair or replace.
5. After repair or replacement, recheck with the ohmmeter
to confirm that the repair or replacement has corrected
the problem.

2. Turn the ignition switch to “ON” position (but do not start

the engine).
3. Check the output voltage of the throttle position sensor.
Standard value: 335 – 935 mV
4. If not within the standard value, loosen the throttle position MAIN
sensor mounting bolts. Then rotate the sensor body to
adjust.
5. Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” (OFF) position.
6. Remove the MUT-II. If the MUT-II is not used, remove Group
the special tool, and then connect the throttle position 13
sensor connector.
7. If a diagnosis code is displayed, erase the diagnosis code
by using the MUT-II or disconnect the negative battery
cable from the battery terminal and then leave it for at 13A
least ten seconds. After that, reconnect the battery cable,
and then let the engine run at idle for approx. ten minutes.
FIXED SAS ADJUSTMENT

Caution
The fixed SAS should not be moved unnecessarily; it
has been precisely adjusted by the manufacturer.
If the adjustment is disturbed for any reason, readjust
as follows.
Fixed SAS 1. Loosen the tension of the accelerator cable sufficiently.
2. Back out the fixed SAS lock nut.
3. Turn the fixed SAS counterclockwise until it is sufficiently
backed out, and fully close the throttle valve.
4. Tighten the fixed SAS until the point where the throttle
lever is touched (i.e., the point at which the throttle valve
begins to open) is found.
From that point, tighten the fixed SAS 1-1/4 turn.
5. While holding the fixed SAS so that it doesn’t move, tighten
the lock nut securely.
6. Adjust the tension of the accelerator cable.
7. Adjust the basic idling speed.
8. Adjust the throttle position sensor.
BASIC IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT

NOTE
(1) The standard idling speed has been adjusted by the
speed adjusting screw (SAS) by the manufacturer,
and there should usually be no need for readjustment.
(2) If the adjustment has been changed by mistake, the
idle speed may become too high or the idle speed
may drop too low when loads from components such
as the A/C are placed on the engine. If this occurs,
adjust by the following procedure.
(3) The adjustment, if made, should be made after first MAIN

confirming that the spark plugs, the injectors, the idle
speed control servo, the compression pressure, etc.,
are all normal.
1. Before inspection and adjustment, set the vehicle to the Group
pre-inspection condition. 13
2. Connect the MUT-II to the diagnosis connector (16-pin).
NOTE
When the MUT-II is connected, the diagnosis control 13A
terminal should be earthed.
3. Start the engine and run at idle.
4. Select the item No.30 of the MUT-II Actuator test.
NOTE
This holds the ISC servo at the basic step to adjust the
basic idle speed.
5. Check the idle speed.
Standard value: 700 ± 50 r/min
NOTE
(1) The engine speed may be 20 to 100 r/min lower
than indicated above for a new vehicle [driven
approximately 500 km or less], but no adjustment
is necessary.
(2) If the engine stalls or the engine speed is low even
though the vehicle has been driven approximately
500 km or more, it is probable that deposits are
adhered to the throttle valve, so clean it.
6. If not within the standard value range, turn the speed

adjusting screw (SAS) to make the necessary adjustment.
7. Press the MUT-II clear key, and release the ISC servo
from the Actuator test mode.
NOTE
Unless the ISC servo is released, the Actuator test mode
will continue 27 minutes.
