TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Warning Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can very easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep sparks and flames away from fuel. Fuel in the fuel system is under high pressure when the engine is not running. 4 Warning Fuel line spills and leaks are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the following "Fuel Line Safety Procedures". 35UOFX-008 F-73 F-73 F-74 Fuel Line Safety Procedures A. Release the fuel pressure before disconnecting a fuel line. 1. Start the engine. u 2. Disconnect the fuel pump relay connector. 3. After the engine stalls, turn the ignition switch to OFF. 4. Reconnect the fuel pump relay connector. B. Avoid leakage. 1. When disconnecting a fuel line hose, wrap a rag around it to protect against fuel leakage. 2. Plug the hose after removal. C. Install hose clamps to secure the fuel pressure gauge connections. Self-Diagnosis Checker does not indicate Diagnostic Trouble Code No. but MIL comes on Self-Diagnosis Checker indicates Diagnostic Trouble Code No, of input device but MIL never comes ON Blower fan operates but no cool air is discharged 32 33 34 Pinching Hose When pinching an air hose or fuel hose with pliers, wrap the hose with a rag to prevent damage. MIL always ON MIL never ON NC does not work Checking ignition spark When checking ignition spark condition, hold the high- tension lead with insulated pliers. Note If a timing light is used to check for spark, some lights do not light at the number 2 and 4 cylinders even if the ignition system is normal. J Gartner Banana

G IGNITION SYSTEM BURNS PLUG GAP DAMAGE AND DETERIORATION DAMAGE SPARK PLUG Removal 1 Installation Caution Pulling on the wire part of the spark plug lead may i/ break it. To remove the lead, pull only on the boot. Caution To avoid breaking the spark plug be sure to fit the socket squarely over it. Tighten to the specified torque. Spark plug tightening torque: 15--22 N-m (1.5--2.3 kgf-m, 11-16 ft-lbf) Spark Test 1. Disconnect the high-tension lead from the spark plug. 2. Connect a new spark plug to the high-tension lead. 3. Hold with insulated pliers approx. 5-10mm (0.20-4.39 in) from a ground. 4. Crank the engine and verify that a strong blue spark is visible. . -.d' Note If a timing light is used to check for spark, some lights do not light at Nos.:! and 4 cylinders even if the igni- tion system is normal. Inspection Check the following and replace the spark plugs as neces- sary. 1. Damaged insulation. 2. Worn electrodes. 3. Carbon deposits. If cleaning is necessary, use a plug cleaner or a wire brush. Wipe upper insulator. 4. Damaged gasket. Plug gap: 1 .O-1 .l mm (0.040-0.043 in) Gartner Banana
