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.

Crankshaft Position Sensor (TDC)
The crankshaft position sensor (TDC) monitors engine speed by
means of signals from the sensing plate (with two protrusions)
installed to the crankshaft pulley. The datum signal output is
detected at ATDC 70É and sent to the ECM. The sensor signal is
used for fuel injection control and fuel injection timing control.
CONSULT REFERENCE VALUE IN DATA MONITOR MODE
Remarks: Speci®cation data are reference values.
