STEP 7. Check the spark plugs.

CAUTION
Do not attempt to adjust the gap of the iridium plug. Clean-
ing of the iridium plug may result in damage to the iridium

removed, use a plug cleaner and complete cleaning within
20 seconds to protect the electrode. Do not use a wire

TIP AKX01327AB Q: Is the plug gap at the standard value?
YES : Refer to INSPECTION PROCEDURE 32 −Ignition

NO : Replace the faulty spark plug. Then go to Step 10.
STEP 8. Check the following items.

(1) Check the following items, and repair or replace the
defective component.
a. Check for skipped timing belt teeth.
b. Check compression.
c. EGR valve failed.
Q: Are there any abnormalities?
YES : Repair or replace it. Then go to Step 10.
NO : Go to Step 9.

STEP 9. Check the trouble symptoms.

(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to
Diagnostic Function −OBD-II Drive Cycle −Pattern 15
P.13A-6.
(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0300 set?
YES : Replace the ECM or the PCM. When the ECM or the
PCM is replaced, register the encrypted code. Refer
to GROUP 54A, Encrypted Code Registration Criteria
Table P.54A-13. Then go to Step 10.
NO : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.
