Main valve : 86.5—89.5°C (188—193°F)
Full open lift
Sub valve : 1.5 mm (0.06 in) min. at
100°C (212°F)
Main valve : 8 mm (0.31 in) min. at
100°C (212°F)
Valve closing temperature
Sub valve : 75°C (167°F)
Main valve : 83°C
(181
°F)

4 A AUTO-RETURN CHOKE SYSTEM
AUTO-RETURN CHOKE SYSTEM
[FE 8VALVE—UNLEADED FUEL, MIDDLE EAST, and F6—GENERAL]
r ~ I
76G04A-066
An auto-return choke is adopted to prevent the catalytic converter from over-heating because of over
use of the choke. This system opens the choke valve by causing the choke knob to return when the
engine coolant temperature is more than 67°C (153°F).
TROUBLESHOOTING
Note
Make the system inspection first. If no problem is found, continue with the next inspec-
tion of the Troubleshooting Guide. (Refer to pages 4A—16, 21, or 22)

System Inspection
1. Disconnect the vacuum switch connector.
2. Make sure that radiator coolant temperature is be-
low 17°C (63°F).
3. Disconnect the upper vacuum hose from the sole-
noid valve.
4. Place a finger over the solenoid valve open port
and check that vacuum is not felt when engine is
running.
5. Warming up the engine.
6. Place a finger over the same open port of the sole-
noid valve and check that weak vacuum is felt.
7. Reconnect the vacuum switch connector.
8. Check that weak vacuum is felt at the open port
of the solenoid valve at idle.
9. Accelerate the engine rapidly and check that vacu-
um is not felt.
Solenoid Valve (A/C)
1. Disconnect vacuum hose A (White) from the car-
buretor.
2. Disconnect vacuum hose B from the solenoid
valve.
3. Disconnect the solenoid valve connector.
4. Blow air through the valve from hose A and check
that it comes out of port C.
5. Apply 12V and ground to the solenoid valve with
jumper wires.
6. Blow air through the valve from hose A and check
that air not come out.
7. Replace if necessary.
