4C EGR SYSTEM (UNLEADED FUEL)
TROUBLESHOOTING
Check the condition of the wiring harness and connectors before checking the sensors or switches.
Note
Make the system inspection first. If no problem is found, continue with inspection of the
next system of the Troubleshooting Guide. (Refer to pages 4C—10 and 11.)

System Inspection
1. Start the engine.
2. Accelerate the engine while still cold and verify that
the diaphragm of the EGR control valve does not
move.
3. Warm up the engine to normal operating temper-
ature and run it at idle.
Warning
Be careful when checking the EGR control
valve, the surrounding area is very hot.
4. Accelerate the engine and check that the di-
aphragm of the EGR control valve moves.
Solenoid Valve (EGR)
1. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the vacuum
pipe.
2. Blow through the solenoid valve from vacuum hose
A.
3. Check that air flows from port B.

SYSTEM
Water thermo sensor
76G04C-150
Unleaded fuel:
This system stores fuel vapor generated in the fuel tank in the canister when the engine is not running.
The fuel vapor is stored in the canister until it is drawn into the dynamic chamber and burned when
the engine is started.
Leaded fuel:
Fuel vapor generated in the fuel tank flows out to the atmosphere.

The control system consists of the input devices and the engine control unit. The control unit controls
the fuel injection amount (EGI), fuel injection pressure, bypass air amount, ignition timing, switch moni-
tor function, and fail-safe function.

4. Make sure that the throttle valve is fully closed.
5. Turn the throttle sensor so that the BLUE wire volt-
age indicates within the specified closed range.
6. Tighten the throttle sensor mounting screw.
7. Recheck that the BLUE wire voltage is within the
specified range.

8. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
9. Disconnect the SST and reconnect the throttle sen-
sor connector.
10. Disconnect the negative battery terminal and de-
press the brake pedal for 5 seconds to eliminate
the from the malfunction memory from the control
unit.

IDLE SWITCH
Inspection
1. Disconnect the idle switch connector.
2. Check continuity between the switch and a ground.
Throttle valve condition Continuity
Fully closed Yes
Open No
3. If not correct, check condition of the wiring harness
of the idle switch. Replace the idle switch and throt-
tle body as an assembly, if necessary.
WATER THERMO SWITCH
Inspection
1. Remove the switch from the radiator.
2. Place the switch in water with a thermometer and
heat the water gradually.
3. Check for continuity of the switch with an
ohmmeter.
Coolant temp. Continuity
More than approx. 17°C (63°F) Yes
Less than approx. 10°C (63°F) No
4. If not correct, replace the water thermo switch.
