FUEL EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM I GROUND I PURGE SOLENOID VALVE On-vehicle lnspection 1. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature. 2. Run the engine at idle. d 3. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the purge solenoid valve and verify that no vacuum is felt at the purge sole- noid valve. 4. If not as specified, check the purge solenoid valve. lnspection 1. Disconnect the vacuum hoses from the purge solenoid valve. 2. Verify that no air flows through the purge solenoid valve. 3. Disconnect the purge solenoid valve connector and con- nect battery positive voltage and a ground to the termi- nals of the purge solenoid valve. 4. Verify that the air flows through the valve. 5. If not as specified, replace the purge solenoid valve. TWO-WAY CHECK VALVE lnspection 1. Remove the valve. 2. Check the operation of the valve with a vacuum pump.

If not as specified, replace the two-way check valve. THREE-WAY CHECK VALVE lnspection 1. Remove the valve and plug the port C. 2. Check operation of the valve with a vacuum pump. Specification 3. If not as specified, replace the three-way check valve. Apply approx. 37 mmHg {I -46 inHg} vacuum at port A Apply approx. 70 mmHg (2.76 inHg} vacuum at port I3 Airflow Airflow -d Gartner Banana

FUEL EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM FUEL VAPOR VALVE Inspection 1. Remove the valve. 2. Blow through the valve and verify that air flows in the direction shown. 3. Turn the valve over and blow through the valve. Verify that no air flows. 4. Replace the valve if necessary. CHARCOAL CANISTER lnspection Visually check for damage and replace the charcoal can- ister if necessary. Gartner Banana

F CATALYTIC CONVERTER SYSTEM CATALYTIC CONVERTER SYSTEM DESCRIPTION MAIN SILENCER PRE-SILENCER EE-WAY CATALYST THREE-WAY CATALYST Inspection Check the three-way catalyst for deterioration or restriction. Check for damage to the insulation covers welded to the three-way catalyst. Replace the three-way catalyst if necessary. The floor will get hot if the insulation cover is touching the three-way catalyst. -/ Replacement Refer to page F-128. Gartner Banana

AIC CUT-OFF CONTROL SYSTEM AIC CUT-OFF CONTROL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION An NC cut-off system is used to improve idle smoothness after just starting the engine and to improve - acceleration performance. IGNITION SWITCH POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (ENGINE) CRANKSHAFT POSITION - I DETERMINA- TION OF NC CUT-OFF & $1 . 1 THROTTLE I POSITION SENSOR AIC RELAY IGNITION SWITCH SENSOR 7 After engine has been started - The AJC is cut-off for 2 sec. just after the engine is started. Acceleration The AIC is cut-off upon wide-open-throttle acceleration for approx. 5 sec. Gartner Banana

F A/C CUT-OFF CONTROL SYSTEM D B AIC RE LAY SYSTEM INSPECTION 1. Turn the ignition switch ON. 2. Turn the blower switch and air conditioning sensor ON. 3. Start the engine. d 4. Verify that the A/C stops for approx. 2 sec. after the en- gine start. 5. Rotate the throttle link to fully open position. 6. Verify that the A/C stops for approx. 5 sec. after the throttle link to fully open position. 7. If not specified, inspect as following. PCME 1Q terminal voltage A/C relay Throttle position sensor AIC RELAY Inspection 1. Remove the A/C relay. 2. Check the continuity between the terminals of the relay. 3. If not specified, replace the A/C relay. B+: Battery positive voltage Terminal A - B Apply B+ B+ not applied Terminal C - D Yes No Gartner Banana

DECHOKE CONTROL SYSTEM DECHOKE CONTROL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION To clean out excess fuel in cylinders, as in the case of engine flooding, when the engine is cold, no fuel will be injected when the accelerator is held fully depressed while cranking the engine.

COOLANT FAN CONTROL COOLANT FAN CONTROL OUTLINE The PCME controls the coolant fan and the condenser fan to provide more efficient fan control. This 4 improves the performance reliability and stability during idling of an engine. The coolant fan is normal when it start to operate with the data link connector TEN terminal grounded and the accerelator pedal is depressed (Ignition switch ON).
