    8. Connect a hand-held tester to the DLC3.
      1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
      2. Connect the battery negative (-) terminal cable to the battery.
      3. Turn the ignition switch ON, and push the hand-held tester main switch ON.
        NOTE: Do not start the engine.
      4. Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TEST / FUEL PUMP / SPD.
      5. Please refer to the hand-held tester operator's manual for further details.

      If you have no hand-held tester, connect the positive (+) and negative (-) leads from the battery to the fuel pump connector (See FUEL PUMP ).

      Injection volume: 

      60 - 73 cm 3  (3.2 - 3.9 cu in.) per 15 sec. 

      Difference between each injector: 

      13 cm 3  (0.7 cu in.) or less 

    If the injection volume is not as specified, replace the injector.
