Fuel pump operation
1. Connect the diagnosis connector F/P and GND terminals
by using a jumper wire.
2. Remove the fuel filler cap.
3. Turn ON the ignition switch.
4.
Listen at the filler inlet for the operational sou.nd of the fuel
pump.
5. Install the fuel filler cap.
6. If no sound is heard, measure the voltage between the fuel
pump connector (G/R) to a ground.
Voltage: 8attey vo kage
7. If not as specified, check the circuit opening relay and circuit.
8. ff as specified, check fur continuity between fuel pump con-
nector (G/R) and (B).
9. If there is continuity, reptace the fuel pump.
10. If there is no continuity, repair the ground circuit.

3. If
not as specified, replace the injector.
Volume Test
1, Remove the injectors and delivery pipe assembly with the
conectors con netted.
2. Affix the injectors to the delivery pipe by using wire.
Warning
l Be extremely careful when working with fuet. Al-
ways work away from sparks and open flames.
Caution
l Affix the injectors firmly to the detivery pipe so that
they do not move.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON and ground the F/P terminal
of the diagnosis connector.
4. Test the individual injectors by following the procedure out-
lined in the chart below.
