DISASSEMBLY OF RADIATOR
(See page CO±15)
1. REMOVE TANK PLATE
(a) Raise the claws of the tank plates with SST in the
numerical order shown in the figure.
SST 09230±00010
NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the core plate.
2. INSPECT COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
(a) Fill the radiator with coolant and attach a radiator cap
tester.
(b) Warm up the engine.
(c) Pump it to 1.2 kg/cm
2 (17.1 psi, 118 kPa), check that
pressure does not drop.

2. INSTALL RADIATOR
Place the radiator in position, and install the two supports
with the two bolts.

NOTICE: Do not overfill.
(d) Check for water leaks.
HINT: On radiators with resin tanks, there is a clearance
between the core plate and tank plate where a minute
amount of air will remain, giving the appearance of an
air leak when the radiator is submerged in water. There-
fore, before performing the water leak test, first switch
the radiator around in the water until all air bubbles dis-
appear.
7. PAINT TANK PLATE
HINT: If the water leak test checks out okay, allow the radia-
tor to completely dry and then paint the tank plate.

± COOLING SYSTEMElectric Cooling Fans (2VZ±FE)CO±25

The ER system is composed of there basic sub±systems: Fuel, Air Induction and Electronic Control Systems.
FUEL SYSTEM
Fuel is supplied under constant pressure to the EFI injectors by an electric fuel pump. The injectors inject a
metered quantity of fuel into the intake manifold in a accordance with signals from the ECU (Electronic Control
Unit).
AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
The air induction system provides sufficient air for engine operation.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
The Camry 3S±FE and 2V1±FE engines are equipped with a Toyota Computer Control System (TCCS) which
centrally controls the EFI, ESA, ISC, Diagnosis systems etc. by means of an Electronic Control Unit (ECU±
formerly ER computer) employing a microcomputer.
By means of the ECU, the TCCS controls the following functions:
1. Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI)
The ECU receives signals from various sensors indicating changing engine operation conditions such as:
Intake air volume
Intake air temperature
Coolant temperature
Engine rpm
Acceleration/deceleration
Exhaust oxygen content etc.
The signals are utilized by the ECU to determine the injection duration necessary for an optimum air±fuel ratio.
2. Electronic Spark Advance (ESA)
The ECU is programmed with data for optimum ignition timing under any and all operating conditions.
Using data provided by sensors which monitor various engine functions (rpm, coolant temperature, etc.), the
microcomputer (ECU) triggers the spark at precisely the right instant. (See IG section)
3. Idle Speed Control (ISC)
The ECU is programmed with target idling speed values to respond to different engine conditions (coolant
temperature, air conditioner ON/OFF, etc.). Sensors transmit signals to the ECU which control the flow of air
through the by±pass of the throttle valve and adjust idle speed to the target value. (See page FI±45,115
or 62, 117)
4. Diagnosis
The ECU detects any malfunctions or abnormalities in the sensor network and lights a ºCHECKº engine warn-
ing light on the instrument panel. At the same time, the trouble is identified and a diagnosis code is recorded
by the ECU. The diagnosis code can be read by the number of blinks of the ºCHECKº engine warning light
when terminals TE1 and E1 are connected. The diagnostic codes are refer to the later page.
(See page FI±25 or 27)
5. Fail±safe Function
In the event of the sensor malfunctioning, a back±up circuit will take over to provide minimal drivability, and
the ºCHECKº engine warning light.

PRECAUTIONS
1. Before working the fuel system, disconnect the cable
from negative (±) terminal of the battery.
HINT: Any diagnostic code retained by the computer will be erased
when the battery terminal is removed. Therefore, if necessary, read
the diagnosis before removing the battery terminal.
2. Do not smoke or work open flame when working the fuel system.
3. Keep gasoline off rubber or leather parts.
INSPECTION PRECAUTIONS
MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS
1. CHECK CORRECT ENGINE TUNE±UP
(See page EM±8)
2. PRECAUTIONS WHEN CONNECTING GAUGE
(a) Use the battery as the power source for the timing light, tachome-
ter, etc.
(b) (3S±FE)
Connect the test probe of a tachometer to the service
connector of the distributor.
(c) (2VZ±FE)
Connect the test probe of a tachometer to the terminal
IG ± of the check connector.
3. IN EVENT OF ENGINE MISFIRE FOLLOWING
PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN
(a) Check proper connection of battery terminals, etc.
(b) Handle high±tension cords carefully.
(c) After repair work, check that the ignition coil terminals and
all other ignition system lines are reconnected securely.
(d) When cleaning the engine compartment, be especially
careful to protect the electrical system from water.
4. PRECAUTIONS WHEN HANDLING OXYGEN
SENSOR(S)
(a) Do not allow the oxygen sensor to drop or hit against an ob-
ject.
(b) Do not allow the sensor to come into contact with water.
