1998 NISSAN PATROL engine

Fuel Cut Solenoid Valve
When the ignition switch is OFF, the ECM turns the fuel cut sole-
noid valve OFF (under this condition, no current ¯ows through the
fuel cut solenoid valve), shutting off fuel supply.
When the engine is not operating due to trouble, the fuel cut sole-
noid valve may or may not be OFF even when the ignition switch
is ON.

Fuel Temperature Sensor (FTS)
The fuel temperature sensor is used to detect the fuel temperature
in the injection pump. The sensor modi®es a voltage signal from the
ECM. The modi®ed signal returns to the ECM as the fuel tempera-
ture input. The sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the
change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor
decreases as temperature increases.
