~~.~ MEF036D
SEF234G Introduction
The engine hasanECM tocontrol majorsystems suchasfuel
control, ignitioncontrol, idleaircontrol system, etc.The ECM
accepts inputsignals fromsensors andinstantly drivesactua-
tors. Itis essential thatboth input andoutput signals areproper
and stable. Atthe same time,itis important thatthere areno
problems suchasvacuum leaks,fouled sparkplugs, orother
problems withtheengine.
It is much moredifficult todiagnose aproblem thatoccurs
intermittently ratherthancontinuously. Mostintermittent prob-
lems arecaused bypoor electric connections orimproper wir-
ing. Inthis case, careful checking ofsuspected circuitsmay
help prevent thereplacement ofgood parts.
A visual checkonlymaynotfind thecause ofthe problems. A
road testwith CONSULT oracircuit testerconnected shouldbe
performed. Followthe"Work Flow"onthe next page.
Before undertaking actualchecks, takejustafew minutes to
talk with acustomer whoapproaches withadriveability com-
plaint. Thecustomer cansupply goodinformation aboutsuch
problems, especially intermittent ones.Findoutwhat symptoms
are present andunder whatconditions theyoccur. A"Diagnos-
tic Worksheet" liketheexample onEC-267 shouldbeused.
Start yourdiagnosis bylooking for"conventional" problems
first. Thiswillhelp troubleshoot driveabilityproblemsonan

Preparation ofcold start device
1. Turn coldstart device linkage clockwise.
2. Set asuitable block[Thickness: about15mm (0.59 in)]
between coldstart device plunger andlinkage rod.
3. Turn crankshaft 2turns clockwise toset the device tonor-
mal position.
Checking
1. Set NO.1 piston atTDC onitscompression stroke.
TDC: Without paintedmark
2. Remove injection tubesandairbleeder onthe back ofinjec-
tion pump.
3. Set dial gauge soitsindicator pointstosomewhere between
1.0 and 2.0mm (0.039 and0.079 in)onthe scale.
4. Turn crankshaft 1turn clockwise andcheck thatdialgauge
indicates thesame value again.
5. Turn crankshaft counterclockwise about20to25 degrees,
then setdial gauge indicator to0mm (0in).
6. Turn crankshaft clockwiseandsetthe pump timing markto

• When repeating thechecking, startwithstep 5.
Adjusting
1. Ifplunger liftisnot within thespecified value,adjust by
turning injection pump.
• Ifindication issmaller thanthespecified value,turnpump
body away fromengine.
• Ifindication islarger thanthespecified value,turnpump
body towards engine.
2. Tighten injection pumpsecuring boltsandnuts.

Bolt:
~: 49-59 N.m (5.0-6.0 kg-m, 36-43 ft-Ib)
3. Remove dialgauge andinstall airbleeder withnewwasher.
4. Install injection tubes.
