On-Vehicle Inspection
- CHECK FOR FUEL PUMP OPERATION AND FUEL LEAK
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch on (IG).NOTE: Do not start the engine.
- Turn the intelligent tester on.
- On the intelligent tester, select following the items: Powertrain / Engine and ETC / Active Test / Control the Fuel Pump / speed.
- Check fuel pump operation while operating it with the intelligent tester.
- Check that there is pressure in the fuel inlet hose. If the fuel pump does not operate, release it.
- Check that there are no fuel leaks from any part of the fuel system.
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the intelligent tester from the DLC3.
- CHECK FUEL PRESSURE
- Discharge fuel system pressure.
HINT:
See the step 3 of this "PRECAUTION" (See PRECAUTION )
- Using a voltmeter, measure the battery voltage.
Standard:
11 to 14 V
- Disconnect the negative (-) battery cable.
- Disconnect the fuel hose from the fuel main tube (See step 5 under REMOVAL ).
- Install SST (pressure gauge) using SST and a fuel tube connector as shown in Fig 2.
SST 09268-41048 (90467-13001, 95336-08070, 09268-41500), 09268-45014 (09268-41200, 09268-41220, 09268-41250)
- Wipe up any gasoline.
- Connect the negative (-) battery cable.
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Start the engine.
- Measure the fuel pressure at idle.
Fuel pressure:
304 to 343 kPa (3.1 to 3.5 kgf cm 2 ,44.1 to 49.7psi)
- If the fuel pressure is greater than the standard value, replace the fuel pump.
- If the fuel pressure is less than the standard value, check the connection of the fuel hose and the fuel pump.
- Stop the engine.
- Check that the fuel pressure remains as specified for 5 minutes after the engine stops.
Fuel pressure:
147 kPa (1.5 kgf cm 2 , 21 psi) or more
If the fuel pressure is not as specified, check the fuel pump or fuel injector.
- After checking the fuel pressure, carefully disconnect the negative (-) battery cable, and remove the SST and fuel tube connector to prevent gasoline from splashing.
- Reconnect the fuel tube to the main fuel tube.
- Check for fuel leaks (See step 13 under INSTALLATION ).
- Discharge fuel system pressure.
