OUTLINE OF LPG DEVICE
LPG (in liquid form supplied from the cylinder) passes through the LPG filter in the engine room to remove foreign matter
and reaches to the regulator through the main solenoid valve. LPG is reduced and gasified in the regulator, and supplied to
engine with its pressure kept at a certain rate.
Engine coolant is led to the regulator for use as the heat source for LPG gasification.
FUEL FILTER FOR LPG
The filter is mounted between the LPG cylinder and the right before the solenoid valve to remove various kinds of
foreign materials in LPG. It consists of a filter element and permanent magnet, and the filter element is detachable
for easy cleaning and has sufficiently strong construction to withstand LPG vapor pressure.

When low-grade LPG is used, vary small impurity particles flow intothe regulator causing start difficulty due to cloggi

slow 1
path. The filtering performance has been improved to be able to

remove foreign matters of 2 m or more in size. 2


3

SOLENOID VALVEThe solenoid valve is mounted between the LPG filter and the

4
regulator, and controls gas flow according to the engine condition.For example, when the engine is running, the solenoid

valve is ON 5 and supplies fuel. Once the engine stops running, it turns
OFF and

cuts off the gas flow. 6


When the current flows through the solenoid valve, which consists

Section 1.3.1
Filtering Performance m
LPG Device for 4Y-E Engine 1-3

0
of a slide valve, back spring, and solenoid coil, magnetic force isgenerated. The slide valve overcomes the spring force by

such 7 magnetic force to move forward the IN side, and fuel flows.When the current stop flowing through the solenoid

valve, the slide 8


valve is forced to back to the OUT side by the LPG pressure and

spring force to shut off the flow. 9

ADAPTER
The adapter is installed on the right upper position of the electric governor,
and mixes air with gaseous LPG decompressed in the regulator. The air-
mixed fuel is led to the engine. The adapter has a FCM (Fuel/air Control
Motor) at the ventury part and the FCM controls the amount of fuel based on

20

E
Section 1.3.1

the engine ECU signal. The motor has a taper-shaped needle valve that moves right or left based on the engine ECU signal.
This sliding of the valve changes the opening space of the fuel path.

Regulator Function
The LPG is gasified by depriving the engine coolant, led into the regulator, of heat. The regulator consists of chamber A
where LPG vaporization starts, chamber B (first reducing chamber) where the gasified LPG pressure is reduced, chamber C
(second reducing chamber) for reducing the pressure down to almost atmospheric level to supply fuel using the adopter
venturi vacuum, and chamber D for forced fuel supply during engine start and idling.

LPG flowing into chamber A of the regulator pushes elastic face valve 1 open by vapor pressure allowing it to enter first
reducing chamber B where it is vaporized by pressure reduction. When the pressure in chamber B becomes in the range of
24.5 to 34.3 kPa (0.25 to 0.35 kgf/cm2) (3.6 to 5.0 psi), first diaphragm pushes first regulator spring, so first diaphragm hook
acuates first valve lever to close elastic face valve 1. When LPG flows out to second reducing chamber C, the first pressure
drops and first valve lever is operated by first regulator spring to open elastic face valve 1 to cause fuel to flow into first
reducing chamber B again. Opening and closing of elastic face valve is repeated to maintain the first pressure at a fixed
level. The pressure of the fuel entering from chamber B into chamber C through elastic face valve 2 is reduced to
atmospheric level. Chamber C is connected to the adapter.
The vacuum of the ventury nozzle at the adapter operates second diaphragm to open elastic face valve 2 via second valve
lever. The valve is closed by the force of second regulator spring to maintain a constant pressure (atmospheric pressure).

1. When starting the engine


When the ignition switch and LPG switch are both turned to ON, the LPG led from the IN port flows into
chamber A. Upon entering chamber A, the LPG pushes open the elastic face valve 1 by its own vapor pressure,
and enters the primary pressure reduction chamber B for pressure reduction and vaporization. When the
pressure in chamber B reaches in the range of 24.5 to 34.3 kPa (3.6 to 5.0 psi), first diaphragm pushes first
regulator spring to operate first valve lever by means of first diaphragm hook. As a result elastic face valve is
closed and the pressure in the primary pressure reduction chamber B remains at a constant level. When the
starting motor runs, the current flowing in the coil of the slow solenoid operates the valve to connect chambers B
and D. Since the pressure in chamber B at 24.5 to 34.3 kPa (3.6 to 5.0 psi) is higher than the atmospheric
pressure, LPG flows into chamber D. The LPG entering chamber D flows through the slow path, and main path
into the adapter, and is then supplied to the engine from the venturi nozzle to start initial explosion. When the
throttle valve at the electric governor is opened slightly then, vacuum is generated in the venturi of the adapter.
The vacuum in the adapter acts on the secondary pressure reduction chamber C via the main path. At this time,
secondary diaphragm is operated to open elastic face valve 2 via second valve lever to cause LPG to flow from
the primary pressure reduction chamber B to the secondary pressure reduction chamber C.
As a result, a large amount of LPG enters the adapter for consecutive combustion.

Section 1.3.1
LPG Device for 4Y-E Engine 1-9

2. During idling
When the engine is idling, current flows to the slow solenoid valve coil to operate the valve, resulting in opening
of the closed path to connect chambers B with D. Since the pressure in chamber B is high enough, the
depressurized LPG flows chamber D. Though most of the fuel flown to chamber D is led to the adapter through
the slow path, main path, and venturi nozzle of the adapter, and then supplied to the engine, fuel is also
delivered to the engine by the LPG injector to compensate the air-fuel ratio. The idle adjusting screw controls
main flow rate of fuel. Since vacuum at the adapter is very low during idling, elastic face valve 2 is not opened
and the fuel is supplied not from the chamber C, but from the slow path.

3. During normal operation

Section 1.3.1
1-10 LPG Device for 4Y-E Engine

When the throttle valve is opened, vacuum arises at the adapter venturi nozzle, which is applied to chamber C
through the main path. This vacuum pulls second diaphragm to open elastic face valve 2. As a result, LPG flows
from chamber B to chamber C, and enters the adapter venturi nozzle through the main path.
As a current also flows in the slow solenoid valve, LPG also flows from chamber B to chamber D, and through
the slow path to the venturi nozzle, and is also supplied to the engine by the LPG injector through the injector
path.
While the engine is running in medium load range, LPG fuel is mostly supplied through the main path, and LPG
injector injects the shortage amount of fuel to the ideal air-fuel ratio.
While the engine is in high load range, the FCM at adapter changes the amount of fuel flow to adjust the overall
fuel amount, on the other hand, the injector supplies a fixed amount of fuel with engine.

4. When stopping the engine

Section 1.3.1
LPG Device for 4Y-E Engine 1-11

When the engine stopped, the current to the slow solenoid valve is cut off to close the path between chambers
B and D, resulting in suspension of LPG supply through the slow path. Since the vacuum at the adapter venturi
does not exist, LPG supply through the slow path also stops.

REGULATORS SYSTEM COMPONENTS


LPG Cutoff Device
The solenoid valve for slow path control is integrated with the regulator. The solenoid valve is opened and closed
according to the engine speed, starter signal etc. detected by means of engine ECU. When the ignition switch is ON,
with the engine not running, the valve is closed not to flow LPG to the adapter.

PRECAUTION FOR LPG FORKLIFT OPERATION AND REPAIR
Handle LPG with special attention, because it is inflammable and may cause explosion resulting in the fatal accident.
1. Never smoke tobacco, strike a match and light a lighter near the LPG forklift. Never park and stop the LPG forklift near a
stove, gas burner, electric heater, electric apparatus (a motor, etc), bonfire, etc. (near the fire). Avoid the direct sunlight,
if possible.
2. Never operate the LPG forklift near the fire.
3. When Operating, inspecting and repairing the LPG forklift, put up “CAUTION INFLAMMABLE” to avoid any fire.
4. When repairing the LPG forklift, remove the engine key so that it cannot be operated by persons other than the operator.
5. Use a gas leak detector, soapsuds or neutral detergent solution to detect gas leak. Never use other device or liquid, etc.
6. To check gas leak at night, be sure to light a flashlamp outside the chamber before approaching to the LPG forklift (to
prevent a hazard by switching spark).
7. When gas should leak, ventilate air after confirming that there is no fire.
8. Pay special attention to keep the LPG cylinder. Keep it in the place free from the fire and install a gas leak detector.
9. When a LPG forklift is used for a long time, impurities in fuel and tank rust accumulate in its inside. The operation of the
LPG devices becomes defective by various causes. In this case, the LPG devices must be inspected, repaired and
washed. When disassembling and reassembling the regulator, pay special attention to its adjustment and airtightness.
10. Be sure to apply liquid packing to the threaded parts of each part (the union, solenoid valve, etc.). Never applyliquid
packing to the first and the second threads of the screw tip.

CONNECTOR HANDLING
1. Disconnect the battery plug before connecting or
disconnecting each connector or terminal.
2. When unplugging a connector, first remove the lock then, without pulling the
harness, pull out the connector while holding the main unit.
To connect, push the connector fully until it is locked in position.

3. When applying tester probes, always do so from the rear of the connector
(harness side).
4. When this is not possible, such as with waterproof tester probes, make sure
that inserting will not deform the connector terminal.
5. Do not touch connector terminals directly with your hand.
6. When bringing tester probes into contact with live terminals, prevent two
tester probes from coming into contact with each other.

WIRE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR INSPECTION


PROCEDURE
When any trouble occurs, first inspect the connectors and wire harness of the
related circuit according to the following procedure.

Continuity Inspection
1. Disconnect connectors at both ends of the relevant harness.
2. Measure the resistance between corresponding terminals of the connectors
at both ends.
Standard: 10 or less
Note:
Move the wire harness slightly from side to side and up and down while
measuring.
Reference:
The cause of disconnections is almost always the connector as disconnections in the vehicle's central wiring are rare. Inspect
especially the sensor connectors with sufficient care.

Section 1.3.3
LPG Device for 4Y-E Engine 3-3

0
Short Circuit Check
1. Disconnect connectors at both ends of the relevant harness.
2. Measure the resistance between the corresponding connector terminal and N1.
Always inspect the connectors at both ends.
Standard: 1 M or above
Note:
Move the wire harness slightly from side to side and up and down while
measuring.
3. Measure the resistance between the relative terminals of the appricable connector.
Standard: 1 M or above
Note:
The wiring may short-circuit due to pinching by the body or defective clamping.

2. Perform a visual check to make sure that there is no rust or
foreign matter contaminating the connector terminal.
5 and Contact Pressure Checks 3
3. Check that the caulking is not loose or damaged, and, after
checking that there is no damage, gently tug the connector or wire
harness to make sure that it cannot be pulled out.

7
4. Insert a male terminal same as that of the terminal to a female 8
connector and check the extracting force.
Defective contact may exist at a terminal where the extracting 9
force is less than that of other terminals.
Note: 10
If a problem, such as rust or foreign matter on the terminal, or
a drop in the contact pressure of male/female terminals 11
occurs, a solution that often works is simply disconnecting
and re-connecting the connected connector to change the
contact conditions. Try disconnecting and re-connecting
12
several times. If such a defect is recognized, it is likely that
there is a defective terminal contact. 13

ANALYZER
EXPLANATION
Analyzer function supports operations for inspecting/investigating faulty section by displaying the condition of the
control system, using communication between each controller and the multifunction display or plug-in analyzer. By
switching the multifunction display to analyzer mode, or connect the plug-in analyzer to the diagnosis connector,
operative conditions of the sensor actuator that is used for traveling functions, or the error information detected by
the controller can be read. This is very useful for checking operative condition of each function and saving time for
repairing when there is a defect.
The analyzer functions can be used to make servicing faster and easier.
Refer to 8FG series repair manual for how to use the analyzer functions.

The analyzer functions include the following functions.


1. Diagnosis memory function (DIAG MEMORY)
The controller stores a maximum of the past 10 error codes (diagnosis codes) for faults that have occurred in
the electrical system. The diagnosis function is the function that reads these error codes and displays them on
the display.
The error code and its time of occurrence as a key ON hour meter time are displayed on the display.
2. In/out monitor function (I/O MONITOR)
This function displays the analog input value of each sensor relating to driving, material handling, FHRS, SAS,
and OPS on the display. By monitoring this display it is possible to judge whether each circuit and sensor has a
fault or not.
I/O ENGINE CTRL:The display shows various kinds of input value such as the analog input voltage from each
sensor to the controller, as well as control correction values and the status of the output to
the relay.

ABOUT TROUBLE SHOOTING BY ERROR CODES


1. Defective contact of connectors may cause error codes to appear and disappear. Therefore before performing
troubleshooting, check the battery cable connection, turn the key switch ON, and check that the error code
appears.
If the error code does not appear, inspect the connection status of the relevant connector.
2. Once an error occurs, the error code is stored in the controller. Even if an error code appears only temporarily
and then disappears due to a defective contact, the error code will still be stored.
3. This volume contains a flow chart relating to symptoms that are particular to LPG.
When an error code is showing, refer to 8FGU/8FDU15-32, 8FGCU20-32 Repair Manual Vol.1 (Pub. No.
CU053) and 8FGCU15-18 Repair Manual Vol.2 (Pub. No. CU055) and perform inspection and repair first. When
an error code is not showing, refer to the page for the relevant symptom and perform inspection and repair.

<DOES NOT START> STARTING MOTOR TURNS OVER BUT ENGINE DOES NOT START
Probable cause
• Ignition system defect (When combustion does not start)
• Fuel system defect (When combustion does start, but does not continue.)
• Regulator primary pressure abnormality during cranking (When the pressure is high there is a possibility of rich
air-fuel ratio)
Note:
When low vapour pressure LPG fuel is used in winter, engine may stall when longer idling or while traveling
and be difficult to start immediately afterwards. In this case pour warm water over the LPG regulator to
vaporize the fuel, and at the same time turn the LPG switch OFF to stop the fuel supply momentarily and
crank after fully opening the accelerator.

0.2 to 0.4 mm (0.008 to 0.016 in)

14. Adjust VF voltage


(1) Warm up the heated oxygen sensor by maintaining the
engine speed at 1800 rpm for approximately 2 minutes.
(2) Using plug-in analyzer or multi-function display, check
that OX value alternates between 0 and 1.
Note:
Maintain the engine rpm at 1800 rpm.
Standard:
The OX value alternates more than 4 times, between 0 and
1 for 10 seconds.
(3) Measure the VF voltage while engine idling. Standard:
2.5 ± 0.5 V

(4) If the VF voltage is not within the specified range, adjust


the VF voltage to the specified value by turning the idle
adjust screw slowly. Reference:

(5) After racing the engine several times, check that the VF

15. Check cylinder compression pressure


(1) Warm up the engine to the normal operating temperature.
(2) Disconnect the distributor connectors.
(3) Disconnect the resistive codes from the spark plugs.
(4) Remove the spark plugs.

(5) Check the


cylinder

compression pressure.
(a) Install a compression gauge into the spark plug hole.
(b) Fully depress the accelerator pedal.
(c) While cranking the engine,
measure the compression pressure. Standard:
1000 to 1373 kPa (10.2 to 14.0 kgf/cm2) [145 to 199 psi]
Note:
The difference between each cylinder is within 196 kPa (2.0
kgf/cm2) [28 psi]
(d) If the cylinder compression in 1 or more cylinders is
low, pour a small amount of engine oil into the spark
plug hole and perform steps (a) through (c) for the
cylinders with low compression.
• If the compression pressure increases, piston
rings and/or cylinder bore may be worn or
damaged.
• If the compression stays low, valves may be
sticking, valve seating may be improper, or gas
leakage through the gasket may occur.

GENERAL INFORMATION:
Service Parts have been made available for improvement to 1 st Valve durability where failures are
related to Amine that is contained in LP fuel. It has been determined that Amine may be mixed in the
LP fuel that is distributed to certain areas of the country. An Amine resistant valve has been added to
service parts for cases where Amine may be added to the fuel. The updated 1 st Valve and Overhaul kit
uses a material based from Nitrile Butyl Rubber which is resistant to damage from the Amine that may
be in the LP fuel.

REPAIR INFORMATION:
When damage to the 1st Valve is found, especially after very low hours of operation, use the service
parts listed below to repair the LP Regulator.
