IGN TIMING ADJ
lAfter warming up, idle the engine.
lIgnition timing is checked by read-
ing ignition timing with a timing
light and checking whether it
agrees with specifications.The timing light indicates the
same value on the screen.

MIXTURE RATIO
TEST
lAir-fuel ratio feedback circuit
(injection system, ignition system,
vacuum system, etc.) is tested by
examining the heated oxygen
sensor output at 2,000 rpm under
non-loaded state.Heated oxygen sensor

lAfter warming up, idle the engine.
lInjector operation of each cylinder
is stopped one after another, and
resultant change in engine rota-
tion is examined to evaluate com-
bustion of each cylinder. (This is

Basic Inspection
Precaution:
Perform Basic Inspection without electrical or mechanical
loads applied;
lHeadlamp switch is OFF,
lAir conditioner switch is OFF,
lRear window defogger switch is OFF,
lSteering wheel is in the straight-ahead position, etc.
BEFORE STARTING
1. Check service records for any recent
repairs that may indicate a related
problem, or the current need for sched-
uled maintenance.
2. Open engine hood and check the fol-
lowing:
lHarness connectors for improper con-
nections
lVacuum hoses for splits, kinks, or
improper connections
lWiring for improper connections,
pinches, or cuts
CONNECT CONSULT TO THE
VEHICLE.
Connect ``CONSULT'' to the data link
connector for CONSULT and select
``ENGINE'' from the menu. Refer to
EC-45.
CHECK IGNITION TIMING.
1. Warm up engine sufficiently.
2. Select ``IGN TIMING ADJ'' in
``WORK SUPPORT'' mode.
3. Touch ``START''.
4. Check ignition timing at idle
using timing light.
Ignition timing:

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS Ð Basic InspectionKA
EC-58

CONSULT Reference Value in Data Monitor
Mode
Remarks:
lSpecification data are reference values.
lSpecification data are output/input values which are detected or supplied by the ECM at the connector.
* Specification data may not be directly related to their components signals/values/operations.
i.e. Adjust ignition timing with a timing light before monitoring IGN TIMING, because the monitor may show the specification data
in spite of the ignition timing not being adjusted to the specification data. This IGN TIMING monitors the data calculated by the
ECM according to the signals input from the camshaft position sensor and other ignition timing related sensors.
lIf the real-time diagnosis results are NG and the on board diagnostic system results are OK when diagnosing the mass air flow
sensor, first check to see if the fuel pump control circuit is normal.
