INJECTOR
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT INJECTOR OPERATION
Check operation sound from each injector.
(1) With the engine running or cranking, use a sound
scope to check that there is a normal operating
noise in proportion to engine speed.
(2) If you have no sound scope, you can check the
injector transmission operation with your finger.
If no sound or unusual sound is heard, check the wiring connec-
tor, injector or injection signal from the ECM.
2. INSPECT INJECTOR RESISTANCE
(a) Disconnect the injector connector.
(b) Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the
terminals.
Resistance:
13.4 - 14.2 W at 20°C (68°F)
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the injector.
(c) Reconnect the injector connector.

(q) Connect SST (wire) to the injector and battery for 15 se-
conds, and measure the injection volume with a gra-
duated cylinder. Test each injector 2 or 3 times.

inder head.
(e) Place the injectors together with the delivery pipe on the
cylinder head.
