DTC P1300 Igniter Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ECM determines the ignition timing, turns on Tr1 at a predetermined angle ( °CA) before the desired
ignition timing and outputs and ignition signal (IGT) ”1” to the\
igniter.
Since the width of the IGT signal is constant, the dwell angle control circuit in \
the igniter determines the time
the control circuit starts primary current flow to the ignition coil based \
on the engine rpm and ignition timing
one revolution ago, that is, the time the Tr2 turns on.
When it reaches the ignition timing, the ECM turns Tr1 off and outputs the IGT signal ”O”.
This turns Tr2 off, interrupting the primary current flow and generating a high voltage i\
n the secondary coil
which causes the spark plug to spark. Also, by the counter electromotive forc\
e generated when the primary
current is interrupted, the igniter sends an ignition confirmation signal (IGF)\
to the ECM. The ECM stops fuel
injection as a fail safe function when the IGF signal is not input to the ECM.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P1300No IGF signal to ECM for 6 consecutive IGT signals during
engine running Open or short in IGF or IGT circuit from igniter to ECM

COMPRESSION
INSPECTION
HINT:
If there is lack of power, excessive oil consumption or poor fuel
economy, measure the compression pressure.
1. WARM UP AND STOP ENGINE
Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating temperature.
2. DISCONNECT DISTRIBUTOR CONNECTOR
3. REMOVE SPARK PLUGS (See page IG−1 )
4. CHECK CYLINDER COMPRESSION PRESSURE
(a) Insert a compression gauge into the spark plug hole.
(b) Fully open the throttle.
(c) While cranking the engine, measure the compression pressure.
HINT:
Always use a fully charged battery to obtain engine speed of
250 rpm or more.
(d) Repeat steps (a) through (c) for each cylinder.
NOTICE:
This measurement must be done in as short a time as pos-
sible. Compression pressure:
1,176 kPa (12.0 kgf/cm
2, 171 psi) or more
Minimum pressure: 883 kPa (9.0 kgf/cm
2, 128 psi)
Difference between each cylinder:
98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2, 14 psi) or less
If the cylinder compression in one or more cylinders is low, pour
a small amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the spark
plug hole and repeat steps (a) through (c) for cylinders with low
compression.
If adding oil helps the compression, it is likely that
the piston rings and/or cylinder bore are worn or
damaged.
If pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or
seating is improper, or there may be leakage past
the gasket.
5. REINSTALL SPARK PLUGS (See page IG−1 )
6. RECONNECT DISTRIBUTOR CONNECTOR

7. INSPECT VALVE CLEARANCE
(a) Check only the valves indicated.
Using a thickness gauge, measure the clearance
between the valve lifter and camshaft.
Record the out−of−specification valve clearance
measurements. They will be used later to determine
the required replacement adjusting shim.
Valve clearance (Cold):
Intake0.15 − 0.25 mm (0.006 − 0.010 in.)
Exhaust0.25 − 0.35 mm (0.010 − 0.041 in.)
(b) Turn the crankshaft pulley 1 revolution (360 °) and align
the its groove with timing mark ”0” of the timing chain cov-
er.
(c) Check only the valves indicated as shown. Measure the valve clearance (See procedure in step (a) above).
8. Except for rear valves of No. 6 cylinder ADJUST VALVE CLEARANCE
(a) Remove the adjusting shim.
Turn the crankshaft to position the cam lobe of the
camshaft on the adjusting valve upward.
Position the notch of the valve lifter toward the spark
plug side.

9. Rear valves of No. 6 cylinder
ADJUST VALVE CLEARANCE
(a) Remove the distributor (See page IG−10).
(b) Remove the camshafts (See page EM−28).
(c) Remove the adjusting shim with a small screwdriver.
(d) Determine the replacement adjusting shim size by follow- ing the Formula or Charts:
Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the
removed shim.
Calculate the thickness of a new shim so that the
valve clearance comes within specified value.
T ....... Thickness of removed shim
A ....... Measured valve clearance
N ....... Thickness of new shim
Intake: N = T + (A − 0.20 mm (0.008 in.))
Exhaust: N = T + (A − 0.30 mm (0.012 in.))
Select a new shim with a thickness as close as pos-
sible to the calculated value.
HINT:
Shims are available in 17 sized in increments of 0.05 mm
(0.0020 in.), from 2.50 mm (0.0984 in.) to 3.30 mm (0.1299 in.).
(e) Place a new adjusting shim on the valve lifters.
(f) Install the camshafts (See page EM−54 ).
(g) Recheck the valve clearance.
(h) Install the distributor (See page IG−11 ).
