(11)Check that there is continuity between the closed throttle
position switch terminal and body.
NOTE
When there is continuity, a clearance will be created between the throttle lever and dash pot rod when the dash
pot rod is pressed lightly.
(12) When there is no continuity, lower the engine speed when the dash pot begins operation to within the standard value
tolerance. Make sure to create continuity between the
closed throttle position switch terminal and body.
COMPRESSION PRESSURE CHECK Ml 1 FFAL
(1) Before inspection, verify that the engine oil, starter motor
and battery are normal. Then, perform the following.
lEngine coolant temperature: 80- 95°C
(1 76- 205’F)
l Lights, electnc
cooling fan and accessories: OFF
0 Transaxle: P range 0 Steering wheel: Neutral position
(2) Disconnect the spark plug cable.
(3) Remove all the spark plugs.
(4) Disconnect the connector of the crankshaft position sensor.
NOTE
This will prevent the engine control module from controll- ing the ignition and fuel injection.
(5) Cover the spark plug holes with a cloth, etc., and crank the engine. Then verify that no foreign material sticks to the
cloth, etc.
Caution
1.During cranking, be especially careful of the spark plug
installing hole.
2. Very hot water, oil, fuel, etc., which may have entered
the cylinder somehow, will violently spout through the
spark plug hole if the compression is measured in the
entrapped state. This is
vex/ dangerous.
(6) Set up the compression gauge in the spark plug mounting
hole.
(7) Fully open the throttle valve, and cranking the engine.
measure the compression pressure.

OPERATION
l The volume air flow sensor is incorporated
within the air cleaner; it functions to convert the
amount of engine air intake to pulse signals of a
frequency proportional to the amount of engine air intake, and to input those/signals to the en-
gine control module. The engine control module
then, based upon those signals, calculates the amount to fuel injection, etc.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Hint 1:
If the engine sometimes stalls, try starting the en-
gine and shaking the volume air flow sensor har-
ness.
If the engine then stalls, incorrect or improper con-
tact of the volume air flow sensor connector is the probable cause.
Hint 2:
If, when the ignition switch is switched ON (but the
engine is not started), the volume air flow sensor
output frequency is any value other than zero, a
malfunction of the volume air flow sensor or of the
engine control module is the probable cause. Hint 3:
If idling is possible even though the volume air flow
sensor output frequency is deviated from the stand-
ard value, the cause is usually a malfunction other
than of the volume air flow sensor. l The power for the volume air flow sensor is
supplied from the multiport fuel injection relay
to the volume air flow sensor, and is grounded at the engine control module. The volume air
flow sensor, by intermitting the flow of the
5V
voltage applied from the engine control module,
produces pulse signals.
Examples:
(1) The flow of air within the volume air flow sensor is disturbed. (Air duct disconnection or clogged
air cleaner element)
(2) Incomplete combustion within a cylinder. (Malfunction of spark plugs, ignition coil, injec-
tors, compression pressure, etc.)
(3) Air is taken into the intake manifold through a leaking gasket, etc.
(4) Incomplete close contact of the EGR valve seat.
