GENERAL INFORMATION
The turbocharged multi-port electronic fuel injec-
tion system combines an electronic fuel and spark
advance control system with a turbocharged intake
system (Fig. 1). The fuel injection system is con-
trolled by the powertrain control module (PCM). The PCM regulates ignition timing, air-fuel ratio,
emission control devices, cooling fan, charging sys-
tem, speed control, turbocharger wastegate and idle
speed. The PCM adapts its requirement to meet
changing operating conditions. Various sensors provide the inputs necessary for
the PCM to correctly regulate fuel flow at the fuel
injector. These include the manifold absolute pres-
sure, throttle position, oxygen sensor, coolant tem-
perature, detonation, and vehicle speed sensors. In
addition to the sensors, the air conditioning clutch
switch and various relays provide important informa-
tion and system control. The outputs include the auto
shutdown relay and fuel pump relay. All inputs to the PCM are converted into signals.
Based on these inputs the PCM adjusts air-fuel ratio,
ignition timing, turbocharger wastegate and other

Based on inputs it receives, the PCM adjusts fuel
injector pulse width, idle speed, ignition spark ad-
vance, ignition coil dwell and canister purge opera-
tion. The PCM regulates operation of the cooling fan,
A/C and speed control systems. The PCM changes
generator charge rate by adjusting the generator
field. The PCM adjusts injector pulse width (air-fuel ra-
tio) based on the following inputs.
² battery voltage
² engine coolant temperature
² exhaust gas content
² engine speed (crankshaft position sensor)
² manifold absolute pressure
² throttle position
The PCM adjusts ignition timing based on the fol-
lowing inputs.
² engine coolant temperature
² knock sensor
² engine speed (crankshaft position sensor)
² manifold absolute pressure
² throttle position
The Automatic Shut Down (ASD) and Fuel Pump
relays are mounted externally, but turned on and off
by the PCM through the same circuit. The camshaft position sensor and crankshaft posi-
tion sensor signals are sent to the PCM. If the PCM
does not receive both signals within approximately
one second of engine cranking, it deactivates the
ASD relay and fuel pump relay. When these relays
are deactivated, power is shut off to the fuel injector,
ignition coil, oxygen sensor heating element and fuel
pump. The PCM contains a voltage converter that
changes battery voltage to a regulated 8.0 volts. The
8.0 volts power the camshaft position sensor, crank- shaft position sensor and vehicle speed sensor. The
PCM also provides a 5.0 volts supply for the coolant
temperature sensor, manifold absolute pressure sen-
sor and throttle position sensor.
AIR CONDITIONING SWITCH SENSEÐPCM INPUT
When the air conditioning or defrost switch is put
in the ON position and the low pressure and high
pressure switches are closed, the PCM receives an in-
put for air conditioning. After receiving this input,
the PCM activates the A/C compressor clutch by
grounding the A/C clutch relay. The PCM also ad-
justs idle speed to a scheduled RPM to compensate
for increased engine load.
BATTERY VOLTAGEÐPCM INPUT
The PCM monitors the battery voltage input to de-
termine fuel injector pulse width and generator field
control. If battery voltage is low the PCM will in-
crease injector pulse width (period of time that the
injector is energized).
BRAKE SWITCHÐPCM INPUT
When the brake switch is activated, the PCM re-
ceives an input indicating that the brakes are being
applied. After receiving this input, the PCM vents
the speed control servo. Venting the servo turns the
speed control system off. The brake switch is
mounted on the brake pedal support bracket.
CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSORÐPCM INPUT
Fuel injection synchronization and cylinder identi-
fication are provided through the camshaft position
sensor (Fig. 3). The sensor generates pulses. The
pulse are the input sent to the PCM. The PCM inter-
prets the camshaft position sensor input along with
the crankshaft position sensor input to determine
crankshaft position. The PCM uses crankshaft posi-
tion sensor input to determine injector sequence and
ignition timing.
Fig. 3 Camshaft Sensor
Ä FUEL SYSTEMS 14 - 85

CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSORÐPCM INPUT
The crankshaft position sensor (Fig. 8) senses slots
cut into the flywheel. There ar e a 2 sets of slots.
Each set contains 4 slots, for a total of 8 slots (Fig.
9). Basic timing is set by the position of the last slot
in each group. Once the PCM senses the last slot, it
determines crankshaft position (which piston will
next be at TDC) from the camshaft position sensor
input. The 4 pulses generated by the crankshaft po-
sition sensor represent the 69É, 49É, 29É, and 9É BTDC
marks. It may take the PCM one engine revolution
to determine crankshaft position. The Turbo III en-
gine uses a fixed ignition system. Base timing is not
adjustable.
The PCM uses the crankshaft position sensor input
to determine injector sequence and ignition timing.
Once crankshaft position has been determined, the
PCM begins energizing the injectors in sequence. The crankshaft position sensor is located in the
transaxle housing, below the throttle body (Fig. 10).
The bottom of the sensor is positioned next to the
drive plate. The distance between the bottom of sensor and the drive plate is critical to the oper-
ation of the system. When servicing the crank-
shaft position sensor, refer to the 2.2L Turbo III
Multi-Port Fuel InjectionÐService Procedures
section in this Group.
KNOCK SENSORÐPCM INPUT
The knock sensor generates a signal when spark
knock occurs in the combustion chambers. The sensor
can detect detonation in the cylinders. The sensor
provides information used by the PCM to modify
spark advance and boost schedules in order to elimi-
nate detonation. The knock sensor is installed into the engine, be-
hind the PCV breather/separator (Fig. 11).
MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE (MAP)
SENSORÐPCM INPUT
The PCM supplies 5 volts to the MAP sensor. The
Map sensor converts intake manifold pressure into
voltage. The PCM monitors the MAP sensor output
voltage. As vacuum increases, MAP sensor voltage
decreases proportionately. Also, as vacuum decreases,
MAP sensor voltage increases proportionately.
