Driving Pattern

  1. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on.
  2. Then, drive at a steady speed between 15 - 75 mph (24 - 120 km/h) for at least 15 minutes, and watch the long term fuel trim. If the long term fuel trim stays at about 1.0, the vehicle is OK or it is a very minor problem. If a significant fault is still present, the long term fuel trim will move up or down while driving.
