play and push rod play are correct.
(b) Tighten the lock nut.
(e) After adjusting the pedal freeplay, check the pedal
height.
(d) Connect the air duct and install the lower finish panel.
5. INSPECT CLUTCH RELEASE POINT
(a) Pull the parking brake lever and install wheel stopper.
(b) Start the engine and idle the engine.
(e) Without depressing the clutch pedal, slowly shift the
shift lever into reverse position until the gears contact.
(d) Gradually depress the clutch pedal and measure the
stroke distance from the point the gear noise stops
(release point) up to the full stroke end position.
Standard distance: 25 mm (0.98 in.) or more
(From pedal stroke end position to release point)
If the distance is not as specified, perform the following
operation.
wInspect pedal height.
wInspect push rod play and pedal free play.
wBleed the clutch line.
wInspect the clutch cover and disc.

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.
