DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Throttle position sensor (TP Sensor)
The throttle position sensor is mounted on the plenum
chamber and connected directly to the throttle shaft.
The sensor is a variable resistor, the signal from
which (0 - 5V) informs the ECM of the actual position
of the throttle disc. As there is no default strategy,
failure of the sensor will result in poor idle and lack of
throttle response. If failure occurs in the closed
position the engine will only reach 1750 rev/min when
the ECM will initiate overrun fuel cut off. The fault is
indicated by illumination of the malfunction indicator
light (MIL) on North American specification vehicles.
Engine coolant temperature sensor (ECT Sensor)
This sensor consists of a temperature dependant
resistive metal strip. The resistance of the strip varies
considerably with coolant temperature, i.e. from 28K
ohms at - 30°C to 90 ohms at 130°C, and 300 Ohms
at 85°C. The ECT Sensor signal is vital to engine
running, as the correct fuelling is dependant upon
engine temperature i.e. richer mixture at low
temperatures. If the sensor is disconnected or failure
occurs a default value will be supplied to the system.
The initial default value selected will be based on the
value of the air intake temperature. This will increase
to a nominal warmed up value over an individual time,
programmed for each default value. The fault may not
be evident to the driver, there may be a hot restart
problem. The fault is indicated by illumination of the
malfunction indicator light (MIL) on North American
specification vehicles.Intake air temperature sensor (IAT Sensor)
This is another resistive sensor, located in the body of
the air cleaner. The resistance varies with changes in
air temperature. The signal from the IAT Sensor is
used to retard the ignition timing if the air temperature
rises above 55°C. If the sensor is disconnected or
failure occurs a default value will be supplied to the
system. The default value selected will represent
normal operating conditions. The fault may not be
evident to the driver, there may be slight power loss in
high ambient temperatures. The fault is indicated by
illumination of the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on
North American specification vehicles.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The Mpi Modular Engine Management System
(MEMS) controls the fuel injection and programmed
ignition systems.
The main features are as follows:
·The Engine Control Module (ECM) controls
programmed ignition and fuel injection. The ECM
incorporates short circuit protection and can
store intermittent faults on certain inputs.
Testbook can interrogate the ECM for these
stored faults.
·The ECM uses the speed/density method of air
flow measurement to calculate fuel delivery. This
method measures the inlet air temperature and
inlet manifold pressure and assumes that the
engine is a calibrated vacuum pump with its
characteristics stored in the ECM
·If certain system inputs fail, the ECM implements
a back-up facility to enable the system to
continue functioning, although at a reduced level
of performance.
·A separate diagnostic connector allows engine
tuning or fault diagnosis to be carried out using
Testbook without disconnecting the ECM
harness connector.
·The ECM harness multiplug incorporates
specially plated pins to minimise oxidation and
give improved reliability.
·The throttle potentiometer requires no
adjustment in service. The following components
supply data for both fuelling and ignition:Ignition system
The ECM determines the optimum ignition timing
based on the signals it receives from the following
sensors:
1.Crankshaft sensor - Engine speed and
crankshaft position.
2.Manifold absolute pressure sensor - Engine load
3.Coolant temperature sensor - Engine
temperature.
4.Manifold absolute pressure sensor - Throttle
closed.
5.Knock sensor - Engine noise and vibration.
MEMS uses no centrifugal or vacuum advance, timing
being controlled by the ECM which is energised by the
main relay, within the relay module. Spark distribution
is achieved by 2 coils mounted at the rear of the
engine and controlled by the ECM.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Basic ignition timing
MEMS provides the optimum ignition timing for the
relevant engine speed and load. The speed and
position of the engine is detected by the crankshaft
sensor which is bolted to, and projects through the
engine adapter plate.
The sensor incorporates an armature which runs
adjacent to a reluctor insert in the flywheel, the insert
consisting of 34 poles spaced at 10°intervals, with
two missing poles 180°apart to identify the T.D.C.
positions.
The sensor 'reads' these poles to provide a constant
up-date of engine speed and crankshaft position to
the ECM
The load signal is provided by the manifold absolute
pressure sensor mounted inside the ECM casing
which detects manifold pressure via a hose connected
to the manifold chamber. The sensor converts
pressure variations into graduated electrical signals
which can be read by the ECMIgnition timing compensation
Coolant temperature sensor
When the ECM receives a low engine temperature
signal from the coolant sensor, it provides optimum
driveability and emissions by advancing or retarding
the ignition timing.
Knock sensor
The knock sensor is a capacitive device mounted in
the cylinder block between nos. 2 and 3 cylinders
below the inlet manifold. The sensor monitors noise
and vibration in the engine and passes this
information to the ECM which is able to identify the
characteristics of the knocking and make the
necessary corrections to the ignition timing of
individual cylinders.
Idle speed control
When the throttle pedal is released and the engine is
at idle, the ECM uses the fast response of ignition
timing to assist idle speed control.
When loads are placed on, or removed from the
engine the ECM senses the change in engine speed
and in conjuction with the opening of the throttle disc
by the stepper motor, advances or retards the ignition
timing to maintain the specified idle speed. When load
is removed from the engine and the stepper motor
returns to it's original position, the ignition timing
returns to the idle setting.
NOTE: Due to the sensitivity of this system
the ignition timing will be constantly
changing at idle speed.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Fuel system
ECM
The MEMS system is controlled by the ECM which is
located in the engine compartment.
The ECM is an adaptive unit and can learn the load
and wear characteristics of a particular engine.
The ECM remembers and updates two main engine
requirements when the engine is fully warm:
1.The idle stepper position required to achieve the
specified idle speed.
2.The fuelling change or offset required to achieve
a set oxygen sensor voltage.
The stepper position is used as a reference to update
the amount of stepper motor movement required to
achieve the specified idle speed under all conditions.
The fuelling offset is required to enable the system
when not in closed loop control to provide the correct
fuelling and while in closed loop control to prevent
having to apply excessive adjustments to the fuelling
which can adversely affect the emissions and
driveability.
NOTE: After fitting a different ECM, a full
tune procedure must be carried out using
Testbook.
The ECM inputs and outputs are shown in the table.INPUTS TO MEMS ECM

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Injectors
The four fuel injectors are fitted between the
pressurised fuel rail and inlet manifold. Each injector
comprises of a solenoid operated needle valve and a
specially designed nozzle to ensure good fuel
atomisation.
Engine coolant temperature sensor
The coolant temperature sensor is mounted in the
thermostat housing and is immersed in the engine
coolant. The sensor is a resistive device in which the
resistance varies with temperature
Throttle housing
The throttle housing is attached to the inlet manifold
via a rubber sandwich plate and incorporates a throttle
disc which is connected to the throttle pedal via the
throttle lever and a cable.
There are two breather pipes; one either side of the
throttle disc. When the engine is running with the
throttle disc open, both pipes are subject to manifold
depression and draw crankcase fumes into the
manifold. When the throttle disc is closed, only the
pipe on the inlet manifold side of the disc is subject to
manifold depression. This pipe incorporates a
restrictor to prevent engine oil being drawn into the
engine by the substantially greater manifold
depression.
Also incorporated in the throttle housing are the
throttle potentiometer and stepper motor.
Throttle potentiometer
The throttle potentiometer is mounted in front of the
throttle housing and is directly coupled to the throttle
disc shaft.
Three wires connect the throttle potentiometer to the
ECM; a 5 volt supply to the potentiometer, an earth
return to the ECM and an output voltage to the ECM
which indicates the rate of throttle disc movement.
Stepper motor
The stepper motor is contained within the throttle
housing and operates a cam and push rod via a
reduction gear. The push rod is in direct contact with
the throttle lever and moves the throttle disc to control
idle and fast idle speed. The stepper motor maximum
movement is 3.75 revolutions accomplished in steps
of 7.5°. The reduction gear converts this into 180°of
cam movement.
The throttle lever has a throttle position setting screw
which rests on the stepper motor operating pin when
the throttle pedal is released and is used to set the
relationship between engine speed and stepper motor
position.
In the side of the throttle housing is a throttle air
bypass bleed screw to provide easier and more
sensitive setting of the stepper motor position at idle.
The stepper motor position is checked using Testbook
and should be within the range of 20 to 40 steps when
the engine is run in. If it is identified as being outside
this range it can be adjusted to within range by turning
the throttle air bypass bleed screw. It is important to
follow Testbook setting procedure when adjusting this
screw to prevent mismatching of throttle body
settings. This ensures that the stepper motor is at the
optimum position within its range for providing further
movement to compensate for changes in engine load
or temperature in accordance with signals from the
ECM
NOTE: The stepper motor and throttle
position setting screws must only be
adjusted when Testbook identifies the
requirement.
