FUEL FILTERA high-pressure type filter is installed at the delivery end of the
fuel pump.
FUEL PRESSURE REGULATORThe fuel pressure regulator maintains the pressure of fuel
delivered to the injectors at a constant level of 335
kPa (47.6
psi) (Non-Turbo models) or 255
kPa (36.3 psi) (Turbo models)
higher than the manifold internal pressure, thus keeping the
volume of fuel injected constant regardless of changes in the
manifold pressure.
The spring chamber is connected by a vacuum hose with the
intake air plenum thus its interior pressure is always controlled
by the manifold vacuum.
The manifold vacuum created in the chamber functions to
decrease the spring pressure which forces down the valve
actuated by a diaphragm.
If this pressure forcing down the valve becomes less than the
fuel pressure, the diaphragm is forced up, allowing excess fuel
to flow back through the return pipe to the fuel tank.
Level “A” in the diagram to the left denotes the pressure
gauge reading when the vacuum hose is disconnected, in other
words, when the manifold vacuum is not applied to the spring
chamber.Level “B” denotes the pressure gauge reading when the
vacuum hose is connected:

unit
Usually, the negative pressure (vacuum) of the
intake manifold is applied to the fuel-pressure
regulator, and, because the fuel pressure is thus
held at a fixed constant level relative to the pressure
within the intake manifold, the amount to fuel
injected is regulated so as to be proportional to the
injectors’ actuation time. If, however, the engine
coolant-temperature and the intake air temperature
are high when then engine is started, the engine
control unit sends a flow of current to the fuel-
pressure control valve, with the result that outside
air (atmospheric) pressure acts upon the fuel-
pressure regulator.
0Fuel ump
1chec terminal 1!Fuel pumpAs a result. the
fuel pressure is increased and the
generation of fuel vapors caused by high tem-
perature is suppressed, thereby maintaining idling
stability immediately after restarting under
high-temperature conditions.
Note that there is a return to the usual fuel pressure
level after two minutes or more have passed after
starting is completed.
In addition, the circuitry of the fuel-pressure control
valve. is interrupted, thus controlling so that the fuel
pressure corresponds to supercharging pressure,
under high-load driving conditions (during super-
charged driving by the turbocharger).
FU,EL PUMP CHECK TERMINAL
This terminal is for directly driving the fuel pump.
By applying the battery voltage directly to this terminal, you can
check fuel pump operation or check fuel leaks from the
fuel
line.

pressure of the power steering oil pump increases,
the power steering oifpressure switch sends an ON
signal to the engine control unit. The engine control
unit detects the oil pump load with this signal andactivates the idle speed control servo to control
theidle speed. Specifically, it prevents the idle

When the ignition switch ON signal is input to the
engine control unit, the unit energizes the control
relay coil to supply power to the sensors and
actuators.When the ignition switch ST signal is input to the
engine control unit, it determines that the engine
iscranking and controls the fuel injection rate,
despeed control servo, ignition timing, etc. for

INHIBITOR SWITCH The inhibitor switch’s ON (when “N” or
“P”) or OFF (when
other than “N” or
“P”) signals are input to the engine control
unit. The engine control unit, based on these signals, then
determines whether the transaxle is in neutral or is in a drive
range, and then activates the idle-speed control servo so as tc
regulate the idling rpm.

CONTROL RELAY (Fuel pump drive signal)
This relay senses that power is supplied to the pump.
-If power failed to be supplied to the fuel pump during
er,, .ecranking or during driving, the engine control unit judges that a
fault has occurred and stores corresponding diagnosis code
(No. 42) in memory and at the

ENGINE IS IDLING
(1) Basic position
The basic position is preset as a map value Optimized
according to the engine coolant temperature. The idle
speed control servo is activated to conform to this position,
thereby maintaining the optimum idle speed.
This basic position of the idle control servo
diiectlycorresponds to the basic idle speed described earlier.

For models equipped with the automatic
transaxle.when
the position of the shift lever is anywhere other than the
“P” or “N” range, the servo position is increased in
proportion to the load of the torque-converter.
(3) Idle control servo position during operation of the power
steering system
When the power steering oil pressure switch is turned on
because the steering wheel is being turned while
thevehicle is stationary, the servo position is changed to
correspond to the increased power steering pump load.
(4) Servo position while the air conditioner is being operated
When the air conditioner switch is turned on, the servo
position is changed to correspond to the increased air
conditioner load.
(5) High altitude compensation
A correction is performed by increasing the opening of the
idle speed control servo to allow increasing bypass air flow
in order to compensate for the loss of intake air volume
(asmeasured by weight) caused by a reduction in intake air
density due to a drop in barometric pressure at increased
altitude.
(6) “Training” function
A “training” function that enters a value based upon the
engine rpm and the target rpm into the memon/,
andcorrects the servo position according to this value, is
provided in order to obtain an even higher degree of
precision of position control.
