CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Misfire: The ECM uses the crankshaft position sensor and camshaft position sensor to monitor changes in
the crankshaft rotation for each cylinder.
The ECM counts the number of times the engine speed change rate indicates that misfire has occurred.
When the misfire rate equals or exceeds the count indicating that the engine condition has deteriorated, the
MIL lights up.
If the misfire rate is high enough and the driving conditions will cause catalyst overheating, the MIL blinks
when misfiring occurs.

HINT:
When the 2 or more codes for a misfiring cylinder are recorded repeatedly but no random misfire code is
recorded, it indicates that the misfires were detected and recorded at different times.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1 Check spark plug and spark of misfiring cylinder.

PREPARATION:
(a) Remove No.2 and No.3 cylinder head cover.
(b) Disconnect the high−tension cord from spark plug.
(c) Remove spark plug.
CHECK:
(a) Check the carbon deposits on electrode.
(b) Check electrode gap.
OK:
(1) No large carbon deposit present.
Not wet with gasoline or oil.
(2) Electrode gap: 0.8 mm (0.031 in.).
PREPARATION:
(a) Install the spark plug to the high−tension cord.
(b) Ground the spark plug.
(c) Disconnect injector connector.
CHECK:
Check if spark occurs while engine is being cranked.
NOTICE:
P03792
P22893 A00164 To prevent excess fuel being injected from the injectors
during this test, don’t crank the engine for more than 5 − 10
seconds at a time.
OK:
Spark jumps across electrode gap.

NG Replace or check ignition system (See page

IG−1).

OK

2 Check voltage of ECM terminal for injector of failed cylinder.

ON PREPARATION:
(a) Remove instrument panel speaker No.1 panel (See page
#10 #20 #40 #50 SF−65).
(b) Turn ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Measure voltage between applicable terminal of ECM connec-
#30 #60 tor and body ground.
OK:
BE6653
P24661 A00165 Voltage: 9 − 14 V

OK Go to step 4.

3 Check injector of misfiring cylinder (See page SF−29).

NG Replace injector.

OK

Check for open and short in harness and con-

nector between injector and ECM (See page
IN−28).

4 Check fuel pressure (See page SF−6).

NG Check and repair fuel pump, pressure regulator,

fuel pipe line and filter (See page SF−1).

OK

5 Check injector injection (See page SF−29).

NG Replace injector.

OK

6 Check EGR system (See page EC−11).

NG Repair EGR system.

OK

7 Check mass air flow meter and engine coolant temp. sensor (See page SF−40,
SF−61).

NG Repair or replace.

OK

Check engine mechanical systems compression pressure (See page EM−3), valve clearance
(See page EM−4) and valve timing (See page EM−13).
