(b) Apply vacuum to the throttle opener.
(c) Insert a 0.60 mm (0.024 in.) thikness gauge between the
throttle stop screw and stop lever.
(d) Connect the test probe of an ohmmeter to the terminals
IDL and E2 of the sensor.
(e) Gradually turn the sensor clockwise untill the ohmmeter
deflects, and secure it with the 2 set screws.
(f) Recheck the continuity between terminals IDL and E2.

INSPECTION
1. INSPECT POWER SOURCE VOLTAGE OF MAP SEN-
SOR
(a) Disconnect the MAP sensor connector.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(c) Using a voltmeter measure the voltage between connec-
tor terminals VC and E2 of the wiring harness side.
Voltage: 4.5 − 5.5 V
(d) Turn the ignition switch to LOCK.
(e) Reconnect the MAP sensor connector.
2. INSPECT POWER OUTPUT OF MAP SENSOR
(a) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(b) Disconnect the vacuum hose on the air intake chamber
side.
(c) Connect a voltmeter to terminals PIM and E2 of the ECM,
and measure the output voltage under ambient atmo-
spheric pressure.
(d) Apply vacuum to the MAP sensor in 13.3 kPa (100 mmHg,
3.94 in.Hg) segments to 66.7 kPa (500 mmHg, 19.69
in.Hg).
(e) Measure the voltage drop from step (c) above for each
segment.

1. INSPECT POWER SOURCE VOLTAGE OF VAPOR
PRESSURE SENSOR
(a) Disconnect the vapor pressure sensor connector.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(c) Using a voltmeter, measure the voltage between connec-
tor terminals VC and E2 of the wiring harness side.
Voltage: 4.5 − 5.5 V
(d) Turn the ignition switch to LOCK.
(e) Reconnect the vapor pressure sensor connector.
2. INSPECT POWER OUTPUT OF VAPOR PRESSURE
SENSOR
(a) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(b) Disconnect the EVAP hose from the vapor pressure sen-
sor.
(c) Connect a voltmeter to terminals PTNK and E2 of the
ECM, and measure the output voltage under the following
conditions:
(1) Apply vacuum (2.0 kPa, 15 mmHg, 0.59 in.Hg) to
the vapor pressure sensor.
Voltage: 1.3 − 2.1 V
(2) Release the vacuum from the vapor pressure sen-
sor.
Voltage: 3.0 − 3.6 V
(3) Apply pressure (1.5 kPa, 15 gf/cm
2, 0.22 psi) to the
vapor pressure sensor.
Voltage: 4.2 − 4.8 V
(d) Reconnect the EVAP hose to the vapor pressure sensor.

AIR CONTROL VALVE
INSPECTION
INSPECT AIR CONTROL VALVE
(a) Turn the air conditioner switch OFF.
(b) Start the engine and run it at idle.
(c) Full turn the steering wheel.
(d) Check that the engine rpm decreases when the vacuum
hose of the air control valve is pinched.
(e) Check that the engine rpm increases when the hose is re-
leased.
