Author: Date:
1996 LAND CRUISER (RM451U)
3. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A CATALYTIC CONVERTER
CAUTION:
If large amount of unburned gasoline flows into the converter, it may overheat and create a fire haz-
ard. To prevent this, observe the following precautions and explain them to yo\
ur customer.
(a) Use only unleaded gasoline.
(b) Avoid prolonged idling.
Avoid running the engine at idle speed for more than 20 minutes.
(c) Avoid spark jump test. (1) Perform spark jump test only when absolutely necessary. Perform this test as rapidly as possible.
(2) While testing, never race the engine.
(d) Avoid prolonged engine compression measurement. Engine compression tests must be done as rapidly as possible.
(e) Do not run engine when fuel tank is nearly empty. This may cause the engine to misfire and create an extra load on the con\
verter.
(f) Avoid coasting with ignition turned off.
(g) Do not dispose of used catalyst along with parts contaminated with gasol\
ine or oil.
4. IF VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
For vehicles with mobile communication systems such as two− way radios and cellular telephones, observe
the following precautions. (1) Install the antenna as far as possible away from the ECU and sensors of the vehicle’\
s electronic
system.
(2) Install the antenna feeder at least 20 cm (7.87 in.) away from the ECU and se\
nsors of the ve- hicle’s electronic systems. For details about ECU and sensors locations, refer\
to the section on
the applicable component.
(3) Avoid winding the antenna feeder together with other wiring as much as possible, and also avoid
running the antenna feeder parallel with other wire harnesses.
(4) Check that the antenna and feeder are correctly adjusted.
(5) Do not install powerful mobile communications system.
5. FOR USING OBD II SCAN TOOL OR TOYOTA HAND −HELD TESTER
CAUTION:
Observe the following items for safety reasons:
Before using the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand −held tester, the OBD II scan tool’s instruc-
tion book or TOYOTA hand −held tester’s operator manual should be read thoroughly.
Be sure to route all cables securely when driving with the OBD II scan too\
l or TOYOTA hand −
held tester connected to the vehicle. (i.e. Keep cables away from feet,\
pedals, steering wheel
and shift lever.)
Two persons are required when test driving with the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand −held
tester, one person to drive the vehicle and the other person to operate the OBD\
II scan tool or
TOYOTA hand−held tester.

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
PRECAUTION
1. DO NOT HANDLE REFRIGERANT IN AN ENCLOSED
AREA OR NEAR AN OPEN FLAME
2. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION
3. BE CAREFUL THAT LIQUID REFRIGERANT DOES NOT GET IN YOUR EYES OR ON YOUR SKIN
If liquid refrigerant gets in your eyes or on your skin:
(a) Wash the area with lots of cool water.
CAUTION:
Do not rub your eyes or skin.
(b) Apply clean petroleum jelly to the skin.
(c) Go immediately to a physician or hospital for professional treatment.
4. NEVER HEAT CONTAINER OR EXPOSE IT TO NAKED
FLAME
5. BE CAREFUL NOT TO DROP CONTAINER AND NOT TO APPLY PHYSICAL SHOCKS TO IT
6. DO NOT OPERATE COMPRESSOR WITHOUT ENOUGH REFRIGERANT IN REFRIGERANT SYSTEM
If there is not enough refrigerant in the refrigerant system oil lu-
brication will be insuf ficient and compressor burnout may occur,
so take care to avoid this.
7. DO NOT OPEN HIGH PRESSURE MANIFOLD VALVE WHILE COMPRESSOR IS OPERATING
If the high pressure valve is opened, r efrigerant flows in the re-
verse direction and could cause the charging cylinder to rup-
ture, so open and close the only low pressure valve.
8. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERCHARGE SYSTEM WITH
REFRIGERANT
If refrigerant is overcharged, it causes problems such as insuffi-
cient cooling, poor fuel economy, engine overheating etc.

COOLING THERMOSTAT
1996 LAND CRUISER (RM451U)
REMOVAL
HINT:
Removal of the thermostat would have an adverse effect, causing a lowering of cooling efficiency. Do not
remove the thermostat, even if the engine tends to overheat.
1. DRAIN ENGINE COOLANT
2. REMOVE WATER INLET AND THERMOSTAT

DIAGNOSTICS ENGINE
1996 LAND CRUISER (RM451U)
DTC P0300 Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
DTC P0301 Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected
DTC P0302 Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected
DTC P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected
DTC P0304 Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected
DTC P0305 Cylinder 5 Misfire Detected
DTC P0306 Cylinder 6 Misfire Detected
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Misfire: The ECM uses the crankshaft position sensor and camshaft position senso\
r to monitor changes in
the crankshaft rotation for each cylinder.
The ECM counts the number of times the engine speed change rate indicates that misfire has occurred.
When the misfire rate equals or exceeds the count indicating that the engine condition has deteriorat\
ed, the
MIL lights up.
If the misfire rate is high enough and the driving conditions will cause catalyst overheating, the MIL blinks
when misfiring occurs.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0300Misfiring of random cylinders is detected during the any partic-
ular 200 or 1,000 revolutions Ignition system
Injector
Fuel line pressure
EGR
Compression pressure
Valve clearance not to specification
Valve timing
Mass air flow meter
Engine coolant temp. sensor
P0301

P0304
P0305
P0306For any particular 200 revolutions of the engine, misfiring is
detected which can cause catalyst overheating
(This causes MIL to blink)
For any particular 1,000 revolutions of the engine, misfiring is
detected which causes a deterioration in emission
(2 trip detection logic)
HINT:
When the 2 or more codes for a misfiring cylinder are recorded repeatedly bu\
t no random misfire code is
recorded, it indicates that the misfires were detected and recorded at d\
ifferent times.
