THROTTLE BODY (THROTTLE VALVE AREA)
CLEANINGMl3Rcv
(1)Start the engine and warm it up until the engine coolant is
heated to
80°C (176°F) or higher and then stop the engine.
(2)Remove the air intake hose from the throttle body.
(3)Plug the bypass passage inlet of the throttle body.
Caution
Do not allow cleaning solvent to enter the bypass
passage.
(4)Spray cleaning solvent into the valve through the throttle
body intake port and leave it for about 5 minutes.
(5)Start the engine, race it several times and idle it for about 1 minute. If the idling speed becomes unstable (or if the
engine stalls) due to the bypass passage being plugged,
slightly open the throttle valve to keep the engine
running.
(6)If the throttle valve deposits are not removed, repeat steps
(4) and (5).
(7)Unplug the bypass passage inlet.
(8)Attach the air intake hose.
(9)Use the scan tool to erase the diagnostic trouble code.
(10) Adjust the basic idle speed. (Refer to
P.13-134.)
NOTE
If the engrne hunts when idling after adjustment of the basic
idle speed, remove the
@ cable from the battery for 10
seconds or more, and then run the engine at idle again.
CLOSED THROTTLE POSITION SWITCH AND
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR ADJUSTMEy,zIFF
(1) Disconnect the connector of the throttle position sensor.
(2) Connect an ohmmeter between terminal
@I (closed throttle
position switch) and
@ (sensor ground) by using jumper
wires.

(3)Insert a feeler gauge with a thickness of 0.65 mm (.0256 in.)
between the fixed SAS and the throttle lever.
(4) Loosen the throttle position sensor mounting bolt; then turn the throttle position sensor body fully counter clock-
wise.
(5) In this condition, check for continuity between terminals
@
and 0.
(6) Slowly turn the throttle position sensor in the clockwise di- rection until the point at which continuity between termi-
nals
@I and @ changes to non-continuity is found.
Tighten the throttle position sensor installation bolt at that position.
(7) Connect the connector of the throttle position sensor.
(8) Connect the scan tool to the data link connector (white).
(9) If not using the scan tool, proceed as follows:
0 Disconnect the throttle position sensor connectors and connect the special tool, Test Harness Set, between
the disconnected connectors.
0 Connect a digtal voltmeter between the throttle posi-
tion sensor terminal
@ (sensor output) and terminal Q
(sensor ground).
(lO)Turn the ignition switch ON (but do not start the engine).
(11)Check the throttle position sensor output voltage.
When using the scan tool, select item
No.14 and read the
throttle position sensor output voltage.
Standard value:
400-1000 mV
(12) If there is a deviation from the standard value, check the throttle position sensor and the related harness.
(13) Remove the feeler gauge.
(14) Switch OFF the ignition switch.

FIXED SAS ADJUSTMENT
M13FlDE
NOTE
I,The fixed SAS should not be moved unnecessarily; it has been precisely adjusted by the manufacturer.
2.If the adjustment for any reason is disturbed, readjust as
follows.
(1) Loosen the tension of the accelerator cable sufficiently.
(2) Back out the fixed SAS lock nut.
(3) Turn the fixed SAS anti-clockwise until it is sufficiently
backed out, and fully close the throttle valve.
(4) Tighten the fixed SAS until the point where the throttle lever is touched (i.e., the point at which the throttle valve begins to
open) is found. From that point, tighten the fixed SAS
l-1/4 turn.
(5) While holding the fixed SAS so that it doesn’t move, tighten the lock nut securely.
(6) Adjust the tension of the accelerator cable. (7) Adjust the basic idling speed.
(8) Adjust the closed throttle position switch and throttle posi- tion sensor. (Refer to
P.13-136.)
