ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
PROCEDURE
1. INSPECT FUEL CUT OPERATION
(a) Start the engine and warm it up.
(b) Increase the engine speed to at least 3500 rpm.
(c) Use a sound scope to check for fuel injector assembly operation noise.
(d) Check that when the accelerator pedal is released, fuel injector assembly operation noise stops momentarily, and then resumes.
If the result is not as specified, check the fuel injector assembly, wiring and ECM.
2. VISUALLY INSPECT HOSES, CONNECTIONS AND GASKETS
(a) Check that there are no cracks, leaks or damage.
NOTICE:
If the result is not as specified, replace parts as necessary.
3. INSPECT EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Remove the V-bank cover sub-assembly.
(c) Slide the hose clip and disconnect the purge line hose from the purge VSV. |
|
(d) Start the engine and turn the Techstream on.
(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Activate the VSV for EVAP Control.
OK:
Tester Operation |
Specified Condition |
---|---|
EVAP VSV: OFF |
Purge VSV has no suction |
EVAP VSV: ON |
Purge VSV has suction |
(f) Connect the purge line hose to the purge VSV, and slide the hose clip to secure it.
(g) Install the V-bank cover sub-assembly.
4. INSPECT FUEL CUTOFF VALVE AND FILL CHECK VALVE

(c) Install the fuel tank assembly with the fuel tank vent hose disconnected.
(d) Fill the fuel tank assembly with fuel.
(e) Apply pressure at 4 kPa (41 kgf/cm2, 0.58 psi) to the vent port of the fuel tank assembly.
HINT:
Check the amount of fuel left in the fuel tank assembly.
(f) Remove the fuel tank cap assembly, and check that the pressure decreases. If the pressure does not decrease, replace the fuel tank assembly. Text in Illustration
