IGNITION TIMING
INSPECTION
1. WARM UP ENGINE
Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating temperature.
2. CONNECT TOYOTA HAND-HELD TESTER OR OBDII
SCAN TOOL
(a) Remove the fuse cover on the instrument panel.
(b) Connect the TOYOTA hand-held tester or OBDII scan
tool to the DLC3.
(c) Please refer to the TOYOTA hand-held tester or OBDII
scan tool operator's manual for further details.
3. CONNECT TIMING LIGHT
4. INSPECT IGNITION TIMING
(a) Using SST, connect terminals TE1 and E1 of the DLC1.
SST 09843-18020
(b) Using a timing light, check the ignition timing.
Ignition timing:
10° BTDC @ idle
(w/ Cooling fan OFF and transmission in neutral
position)
(c) Remove the SST from the DLC1.
SST 09843-18020
5. FURTHER CHECK IGNITION TIMING
Check that the ignition timing advances.
Ignition timing:
7 - 17° BTDC @ idle
(w/ Cooling fan OFF and transmission in neutral posi-
tion)
HINT:
The timing mark moves in a range between 7° and 17°.
6. DISCONNECT TIMING LIGHT
7. DISCONNECT TOYOTA HAND- HELD TESTER OR

IDLE SPEED
INSPECTION
1. INITIAL CONDITIONS
(a) Engine coolant at normal operating temperature.
(b) Air cleaner installed.
(c) All pipes and hoses of air induction system connected.
(d) All accessories switched OFF.
(e) All vacuum lines properly connected.
HINT:
All vacuum hoses for EGR system, etc. should be properly connected.
(f) SFI system wiring connectors fully plugged.
(g) Ignition timing set correctly.
(h) Transmission in neutral position.
2. CONNECT TOYOTA HAND-HELD TESTER OR OBDII SCAN TOOL (See page EM-9)
3. INSPECT IDLE SPEED
(a) Race the engine speed at 2,500 rpm for approx. 90 seconds.
(b) Check the idle speed.
Idle speed:
750 ± 50 rpm
(w/ Cooling fan OFF and transmission in neutral position)
If the idle speed is not as specified, check the IAC valve and air intake system.
4. DISCONNECT TOYOTA HAND-HELD TESTER OR OBDII SCAN TOOL
