OPERATION
l
The fuel pressure solenoid is an ON-OFF type of
solenoid valve and changes pressure fed into
the fuel pressure regulator to intake manifold
pressure and barometric pressure.
l Battery power is supplied to the fuel pressure
solenoid via the multiport
fuel injection relay.
When the engine control module turns on the
power transistor in the unit, current flows in the
coil and barometric pressure is fed to the fuel pressure regulator.

NOTE
When removing the vacuum hose, make a mark so that it can
later be installed in the original connecting position.
(1) Remove the vacuum hose (blue stripe, black) from the solenoid valve.
(2) Cut off the harness connector.
(3) Apply a negative pressure in the nipple to which the black vacuum hose is connected with a hand vacuum pump and
check that it is airtight when voltage is applied to the
solenoid valve terminal and when not applied.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Since the results of the inspection of the turbo-
charger waste gate solenoid harness and single
parts are normal, the following troubles can be in-
ferred if there is some trouble such as poor accele-
ration, etc.
(1) Malfunction of the overboost pressure control system
(2) Poor intake air hose connection
(3) Malfunction of turbo charger, turbocharger waste gate solenoid
(4) Clogging of exhaust gas system

FUEL PRESSURE TESTMxwXAAe
(1) Reduce the internal pressure of the fuel pipes and hoses.
(2) Disconnect the fuel high pressure hose at the fuel rail side.
Caution
Cover the hose connection with rags to prevent splash
of fuel that could be caused by some residual pressure
in the fuel pipe line.
(3) Remove the throttle body stay.
(4) Place the MD998742-01
adapter on the end of the fuel rail,
then attach the fuel high pressure hose to the adapter
using the bolts supplied with the MIT210196
fuel pressure
test assembly.
(5) Attach one end of the fuel hose supplied with the
MIT21 0196 to the quick-disconnect fitting on the
MD998742-01 adapter. Attach the other end of the hose
to the fuel pressure gauge.
(6) Connect the (-) battery terminal.
(7) Connect a jumper wire to the terminal for activation of the fuel pump and to the positive
(+) terminal of the battery to
activate the fuel pump. With fuel pressure applied, check to
be sure that there is no fuel leakage from the fuel pressure
gauge and the special tool connection part.
(8) Disconnect the jumper wire (from the terminal for activa-
tion of the fuel pump) to stop the fuel pump.
(9) Start the engine and let it idle. (10)Measure
the fuel pressure during idling.
Standard value:
Approx. 270 kPa (38 psi)

(11)Disconnect
the vacuum hose from the fuel pressure
regulator, and then measure the fuel pressure while using a
finger to plug the end of the hose.
Standard value:
330-350 kPa (47-50 psi)
250-270 kPa (36-38 psi)
(12)Check to be sure that the fuel pressure during idling does
not decrease even after the engine is raced a few times.
(13)Use a finger to gently press the fuel return hose while
repeatedly racing the engine, and check to be sure that
there is fuel pressure in the return hose also.
NOTE
There will be no fuel pressure in the return hose if there is insufficient fuel flow.
(14)lf the fuel pressure measured in steps (IO) to (13) deviates
from the standard value range, check for the probable cause by referring to the table below, and then make the
appropriate repair.

(15)Stop the engine and check for a change of the value
indicated by the fuel pressure gauge. The condition is
normal if there is no decrease of the indicated value within
two minutes.
If there is a decrease of the indicated value, monitor the
speed of the decrease, and, referring to the table below,

(Refer to P. 13-l 02.)
(17) Disconnect the fuel pressure gauge and the special tools
from the fuel rail.
Caution
Because there will be a some residual pressure in the
fuel pipe line, use a shop towel to cover so that fuel
doesn’t splatter.
(18)Replace the O-ring at the end of the fuel high-pressure
hose with a new one. (19)After
connecting the fuel high-pressure hose to the fuel
rail, tighten the installation bolt.
