Troubleshooting
If the CO/HC concentration does not comply with regulations,
troubleshoot in the order given below.
(a) Check (main heated) oxygen sensors operation.
(See oxygen sensor(s) inspection in SFI System)
(b) See the table below for possible causes, and then inspect
and correct the applicable causes if necessary.
CO HC Phenomenon Causes
Normal
High
Rough idle
1. Faulty ignitions:
Incorrect timing
Fouled, shorted or improperly gapped plugs
Open or crossed high±tension cords (2JZ±GE)
Cracked distributor cap (2JZ±GE)
2. Incorrect valve clearance
3. Leaky EGR valve
4. Leaky intake and exhaust valves
5. Leaky cylinder
Low
High
Rough idle
(Fluctuating HC reading)
1. Vacuum leaks:
PCV hose
EGR valve
Intake manifold
Air intake chamber
Throttle body
IAC valve
Brake booster line
2. Lean mixture causing misfire
High
High
Rough idle
(Black smoke from exhaust)
1. Restricted air filter
2. Faulty SFI systems:
Faulty fuel pressure regulator
Clogged fuel return line
Defective ECT switch
Defective turbo pressure sensor (2JZ±GTE)
Faulty ECM
Faulty injector
Faulty throttle position sensor
Faulty VAF meter (2JZ±GE)
Faulty MAF meter (2JZ±GTE)

COMPRESSION CHECK
HINT: If there is lack of power, excessive oil consumption or
poor fuel economy, measure the compression pressure.
1. WARM UP AND STOP ENGINE
Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating tempera-
ture.
2. 2JZ±GE:
DISCONNECT DISTRIBUTOR CONNECTOR
3. 2JZ±GTE:
DISCONNECT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CON-
NECTORS
4. 2JZ±GE:
DISCONNECT HIGH±TENSION CORDS FROM SPARK
PLUGS
(See high±tension cords and cord clamps removal in
Ignition System)
5. 2JZ±GTE:
REMOVE IGNITION COILS ASSEMBLIES
(See ignition coils removal in Ignition System)
6. REMOVE SPARK PLUGS
7. CHECK CYLINDER COMPRESSION
(a) Insert a compression tester into the spark plug hole.
(b) Wh ile cra n kin g th e en g in e , me a su re th e co mp re ssio n
pressure.
HINT: Always use a fully charged battery to obtain engine rev-
olutions of 250 rpm or more.
(c) Repeat steps (a) through (b) for each cylinder.
NOTICE: This measurement must be done in as short a time as
possible.
Standard pressure:
2JZ±GE
1,275 kPa (13.0 kgf/cm
2, 185 psi) or more
2JZ±GTE
1,079 kPa (11.0 kgf/cm
2, 156 psi) or more
Minimum pressure:
2JZ±GE
1,079 kPa (11.0 kgf/cm
2, 156 psi)
2JZ±GTE
883 kPa (9.0 kgf/cm
2, 128 psi)
Difference between each cylinder:
98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2, 14 psi) or less
(d) If the cylinder compression in 1 or more cylinders is low, pour
a small amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the
spark plug hole and repeat steps (a) through (b) for the
cylinder with low compression.
