Caution
When shifting the select lever to D range, the brakes should be applied so that the vehicle does
not move forward.
NOTE
*1. In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the air flow sensor output frequency is sometimes
10% higher than the standard frequency.
*2. The idle position switch normally turns off when the voltage of the throttle position sensor is 50 -
100 mV higher than the voltage at the idle position. If the throttle position switch turns back on
after the throttle position sensor voltage has risen by 100 mV and the throttle valve has opened,
the idle position switch and the throttle position sensor need to be adjusted.
*3. The injector drive time represents the time when the cranking speed is at 250 r/min or below when
the power supply voltage is 11 V.
*4. In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the injector drive time is sometimes 10%
longer than the standard time.
*5. In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the step of the stepper motor is sometimes
30 steps greater than the standard value.

Needle-nosed wire probe CHECK AT THE ENGINE-ECU TERMINALS


13100920285

TERMINAL VOLTAGE CHECK CHART


1. Connect a needle-nosed wire probe (test harness:
MB991223 or paper clip) to a voltmeter probe.
2. Insert the needle-nosed wire probe into each of the
engine-ECU connector terminals from the wire side, and
measure the voltage while referring to the check chart.
NOTE
(1) Make the voltage measurement with the engine-ECU
connectors connected.
(2) You may find it convenient to pull out the engine-ECU
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 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.

CHECK CHART FOR RESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY


BETWEEN TERMINALS
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect the engine-ECU connector.
3. Measure the resistance and check for continuity between
the terminals of the engine-ECU harness-side connector
while referring to the check chart.
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 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.

THROTTLE BODY (THROTTLE VALVE AREA)


CLEANING
1. Start the engine and warm it up until the coolant is heated
to 80_C or higher and then stop the engine.
2. Remove the air intake hose from the throttle body.

3. Plug the bypass passage inlet of the throttle body.


Caution
Do not allow cleaning solvent to enter the bypass
passage.
4. Spray cleaning solvent into the valve through the throttle
body intake port and leave it for about 5 minutes.

5. Start the engine, race it several times and idle it for about
1 minute. If the idling speed becomes unstable (or if the
engine stalls) due to the bypass passage being plugged,
slightly open the throttle valve to keep the engine running.
6. If the throttle valve deposits are not removed, repeat
steps 4 and 5.
7. Unplug the bypass passage inlet.
8. Attach the air intake hose.
9. Use the MUT-II to erase the self-diagnosis code.
10. Adjust the basic idle speed. (Refer to P.13A-83.)
NOTE
If the engine hunts while idling after adjustment of the
basic idle speed, disconnect the (–) cable from the battery
for 10 seconds or more, and then reconnect it and run
the engine at idle for about 10 minutes.

FIXED SAS ADJUSTMENT 13100150301

NOTE
(1) The fixed SAS should not be moved unnecessarily;
it has been precisely adjusted by the manufacturer.
(2) 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 idle position switch and the throttle position
sensor (P.13A-81).
BASIC IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT 13100180348

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
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
pre-inspection condition.
2. Connect the MUT-II to the diagnosis connector (16-pin).
NOTE
When the MUT-II is connected, the diagnosis control
terminal should be earthed.
3. Start the engine and run at idle.
13A-84 MPI <4G6> - On-vehicle Service

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:
750 ± 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. (Refer to
P.13A-81.)

6. If not within the standard value range, turn the speed


adjusting screw (SAS) to make the necessary adjustment.
NOTE
If the idling speed is higher than the standard value range
even when the SAS is fully closed, check whether or
not there is any indication that the fixed SAS has been
moved. If there is an indication that it has been moved,
adjust the fixed SAS.
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.
8. Switch OFF the ignition switch.
9. Disconnect the MUT-II.
10. Start the engine again and let it run at idle speed for
about 10 minutes; check that the idling condition is normal.

Caution
When shifting the select lever to D range, the brakes should be applied so that the vehicle does
not move forward.
NOTE
*1. In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the air flow sensor output frequency is sometimes
10% higher than the standard frequency.
*2. The idle position switch normally turns off when the voltage of the throttle position sensor is 50 -
100 mV higher than the voltage at the idle position. If the throttle position switch turns back on
after the throttle position sensor voltage has risen by 100 mV and the throttle valve has opened,
the idle position switch and the throttle position sensor need to be adjusted.
*3. The injector drive time represents the time when the cranking speed is at 250 r/min or below when
the power supply voltage is 11 V.
*4. In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the injector drive time is sometimes 10%
longer than the standard time.
*5. In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the step of the stepper motor is sometimes
30 steps greater than the standard value.

Needle-nosed wire probe CHECK AT THE ENGINE-ECU TERMINALS


13100920292

TERMINAL VOLTAGE CHECK CHART


1. Connect a needle-nosed wire probe (test harness:
MB991223 or paper clip) to a voltmeter probe.
2. Insert the needle-nosed wire probe into each of the
engine-ECU connector terminals from the wire side, and
measure the voltage while referring to the check chart.
NOTE
1. Make the voltage measurement with the engine-ECU
connectors connected.
2. You may find it convenient to pull out the engine-ECU
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 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.

CHECK CHART FOR RESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY
BETWEEN TERMINALS
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect the engine-ECU connector.
3. Measure the resistance and check for continuity between
the terminals of the engine-ECU harness-side connector
while referring to the check chart.
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 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.

BASIC IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT 13100180355

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
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
pre-inspection condition.
2. Connect the MUT-II to the diagnosis connector (16-pin).
NOTE
When the MUT-II is connected, the diagnosis control
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: 650 ± 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. (Refer to
P.13A-184.)

6. If not within the standard value range, turn the speed


adjusting screw (SAS) to make the necessary adjustment.
NOTE
If the idling speed is higher than the standard value range
even when the SAS is fully closed, check whether or
not there is any indication that the fixed SAS has been
moved. If there is an indication that it has been moved,
adjust the fixed SAS.
MPI <6A1> - On-vehicle Service 13A-189
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.
8. Switch OFF the ignition switch.
9. Disconnect the MUT-II.
10. Start the engine again and let it run at idle speed for
about 10 minutes; check that the idling condition is normal.

13E-2 DIESEL FUEL - General Information

GENERAL INFORMATION 13300010063

The electronically-controlled fuel injection system consists of sensors which detect the condition of the
diesel engine, an engine-ECU which controls the system based on signals from these sensors, and actuators
which operate according to control commands from the engine-ECU.
The engine-ECU carries out operations such as fuel injection rate control, fuel injection timing control
and idle up control. In addition, the engine-ECU is equipped with several self-diagnosis functions which
make troubleshooting easier in the event that a problem develops.
FUEL INJECTION RATE CONTROL
The fuel injection completion timing is controlled by means of a solenoid-type spill valve to ensure that
the optimum amount of fuel is supplied to the engine in accordance with gradual changes in the engine
running condition.
Before fuel injection starts, the solenoid-type spill valve is on (energized), so that the valve is closed.
As the plunger turns and rises, fuel is sent out under pressure, and when the fuel flow rate reaches
the target value for fuel injection, the solenoid-type spill valve turns off. When the solenoid-type spill
valve turns off, the fuel under high pressure inside the plunger is leaked out into the pump chamber
and fuel injection is completed.
FUEL INJECTION TIMING CONTROL
The position of the injection pump timer piston is controlled so that fuel injection is carried out at the
optimum timing in accordance with the engine running condition.
The timer piston position is determined by duty control of the timing control solenoid valve which is located
in the line between the high-pressure chamber and the low-pressure chamber of the timer piston.
The fuel injection timing is advanced by increasing the control duty of the timing control solenoid valve.
IDLE SPEED CONTROL
Controlling the fuel injection rate in accordance with the engine running condition maintains the idle speed
at the optimum condition.
SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
D When an abnormality is detected in any of the sensors or actuators, the engine warning lamp illuminates
to warn the driver.
D When an abnormality is detected in any of the sensors or actuators, a diagnosis code number
corresponding to the problem which occurred is output.
D The RAM data relating to the sensors and actuators which is stored in the engine-ECU can be read
using the MUT-II. In addition, the actuators can be force-driven under certain conditions.
OTHER CONTROL FUNCTIONS
1. Power Supply Control
When the ignition switch is turned to ON, the relay turns on and power is supplied to components
such as the timing control solenoid valve.
2. Intake Air Throttle Control
When the engine is idling after having warmed up, the throttle valve is half opened to restrict the
amount of intake air in order to reduce vibration and noise.
3. A/C Relay Control
Turns the compressor clutch of the A/C ON and OFF
4. Fan motor relay control
The radiator fan and condenser fan operating speeds are controlled in accordance with the engine
coolant temperature and the vehicle speed.
5. Glow Control
Refer to GROUP 16.
6. EGR Control
Refer to GROUP 17.

Needle-nosed wire probe CHECK AT THE ENGINE-ECU TERMINALS


13300450025

TERMINAL VOLTAGE CHECK CHART


1. Connect a needle-nosed wire probe (test harness:
MB991223 or paper clip) to a voltmeter probe.
2. Insert the needle-nosed wire probe into each of the
engine-ECU connector terminals from the wire side, and
measure the voltage while referring to the check chart.
NOTE
(1) Make the voltage measurement with the engine-ECU
connectors connected.
(2) You may find it convenient to pull out the engine-ECU
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 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.

shift lever to the neutral position <M/T>.
3. Start the engine.
4. Turn the TCL switch to ON.
5. Operate the MUT-II to start the actuator test (item No.
05) and fully depress the accelerator pedal at the same
time. Check that the engine speed is kept down to 3,000
r/min at this time.
Caution
The actuator test should only be carried out for 3
seconds.
Because the engine speed will increase once the
actuator test is stopped, the accelerator pedal should
be released quickly after it has been depressed.
NOTE
The TCL-ECU will output a “request torque: 0” signal
to the engine-ECU for 3 seconds while the actuator test
is being carried out, and the TCL OFF indicator will
illuminate during this time.

<When not using the MUT-II>


1. Turn the TCL switch to ON.
2. Place the front wheels onto a speedometer tester or a
chassis dynamo and start the engine. (The front wheels
may also be jacked up.)
3. Move the shift lever to 1st position <M/T> or the selector
lever to D range <A/T>.
4. Check to be sure that the engine speed is restrained
when the accelerator pedal is depressed.

NOTE
If the following symptoms occur when the accelerator
pedal is depressed, refer to “Troubleshooting.”
(1) If the TCL indicator lamp does not illuminate.
(2) If the TCL indicator lamp illuminates but the engine
is not restrained.
Caution
(1) Inspection should be completed within 20 seconds
after the accelerator pedal was depressed. If it
takes longer than 20 seconds, the TCL system
function will stop and the engine speed will
gradually increase.
(2) Because the TCL OFF indicator will flash when
the TCL system operation is stopped, the
diagnosis codes should be erased if you notice
that the indicator is flashing. (Refer to P.13H-3.)

2. Measure the resistance between terminals (1) and (4)
of the APS connector.
Standard value: 3.5 - 6.5 kW
3. When the accelerator pedal is gradually depressed, check
that the resistance between terminals (1) and (2) of the
Throttle body APS connector changes smoothly in proportion to the
pedal opening amount.
4. If the resistance is outside the standard value, or if the
resistance does not change smoothly, replace the APS.
Adjust the APS after it has been replaced.
