PGM-FI Sy3lem
The PGM-Fl system on this model is a sequential multipon fuel injection system.
Fuel iniector Timing and Duration
The ECM/PCM contains memories for the basic discharge durations at various engine speeds and manifold air flow rates.
The basic discharge duration, after being read out from the memory. is further modified by signals sent from various sen-
sors to obtain the final discharge duration.
ldle Air Control
ldle Air Control Valve llAC Valve)
When the engine is cold. the A,/C compressor is on, the transmission is in gear, the brake pedal is depressed, the P/S load
is high, or the alternator is charging, the ECM/PCM controls current to the IAC Valve to maintain the correct idle speed.
lgnition Timing Control
. The ECM/PCM contains memories for basic ignition timing at various engine speeds and manifold air flow rates.
lgnition timing is also adjusted for engine coolant temperature.
. Aknockcontrol system was adopted which sets the ideal ignition timing for the octane rating ofthegasoline used.*3
Othgr Control Funqtions
1. Starting Control
When the engine is started, the ECM/PCM provides a rich mixture by increasing fuel injector duration.
2. Fuel Pump Control
. When the ignition switch is initially turned on, the ECM/PCM supplies ground to the PGM-Fl main relay that sup-plies current to the fuel pump for two seconds to pressurize the fuel system.. When the engine is running, the ECI\4PCM supplies ground to the PGM-FI majn relay that supplies current to the fuel
oumo.
. When the engine is not running and the ignition is on, the ECM/PCM cuts ground to the PGM-FI main relay which
cuts current to the fuel pump.

This car uses HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant which does not contain chlorofluorocarbons Pay attention to the following
service items:
. Do not mix refrigerants CFC-12 (R-12) and HFC-134a (R-134a)' They are not compatible'
. Useonlythe recommended polyalkyieneglycol (PAG) refrigerant oil designedforthe R-134a compressor (SANDEN: SP-
10; DENSO: ND_OIL8). Intermixing ihe re-commended (pAG) refrigerant oil with any other refrigerant oil will result in
compressor failure.
. All A,,ic system parts {compressor, discharge line, suction line, evaporator, condenser, receiver/dryer, expansion valve'
O-rings for joints) have to be proper for refrigerant R- 134a Do not confuse with R-l2 parts'
. Use a halogen gas leak detector designed for refrigerant R-134a
. R-12 and R-134a refrigerant servacing equipment are not interchangeable. Use only a recovery/recycling/charging station
that is u,L.-listed and is certified to meet the requirements of sAE J2210 to service R-134a air conditioning systems'
. Always recover the refrigerant R-134a with an approved recovery/recycling/charging station before disconnecting any
A,/C fitting.
