up to MAX mark of reserve tank.
111 R S 0 0 1Important operation (in case of 100% engine coolant
change) procedure for filling with engine coolant.
1. Make sure that the engine is cool.
2. Open radiator cap pour coolant up to filler neck.
3. Pour coolant into reservoir tank up to “MAX” line.
4. Tighten radiator cap and start the engine. After
idling for 2 to 3 minutes, stop the engine and
reopen radiator cap. If the water level is lower,
replenish.
WARNING: WHEN THE COOLANT IS HEATED TO A
HIGH TEMPERATURE, BE SURE NOT TO LOOSEN
OR REMOVE THE RADIATOR CAP. OTHERWISE YOU
MIGHT GET SCALDED BY HOT VAPOR OR BOILING
WATER. TO OPEN THE RADIATOR CAP, PUT A
PIECE OF THICK CLOTH ON THE CAP AND LOOSEN
THE CAP SLOWLY TO REDUCE THE PRESSURE
WHEN THE COOLANT HAS BECOME COOLER.
5. After tightening radiator cap, warm up the engine
at about 2000 rpm. Set heater adjustment to the
highest temperature position, and let the coolant
circulate also into heater water system.
6. Check to see the thermostat has opened through
the needle position of water thermometer,
conduct a 5–minute idling again and stop the
engine.
7. When the engine has been cooled, check filler
neck for water level and replenish if required.

Reuse of Quick–Connector
(Delivery Pipe)
Replace the pipe and connector if scratch, dent or
crack is found.
Remove mud and dust from the pipe and make sure
that the end including spool is free of defects, such as
scratch, rust, and dent, which may cause poor
sealability. If defective, replace with a new pipe.
If the retainer removed according to the removal step
above is attached to the pipe, clean and insert it
straight into the quick-connector till it clicks. After it
clicks, try pulling it out to make sure that it is not drawn
and is securely locked.
NOTE: The retainer, once removed from the pipe, cannot
be reused. Just replace with a new retainer. Insert the
new retainer into the connector side until it clicks, and
connect the pipe as inserting it into the retainer until it
clicks.

(Return Pipe)
Replace the pipe and connector if scratch, dent or
crack is found.
Remove mud or dust from the pipe and make sure
that the end including spool is free from defects, such
as scratch, rust, and dent, which may cause poor
sealability. If defective, replace with a new pipe.
After cleaning the pipe, insert it straight into the
connector until it clicks. After it clicks, try pulling it out
to make sure that it is not drawn and is securely
locked.
141RW017
Assembling Advice
Application of engine oil or light oil to the pipe facilitates
connecting work. The work should be started immediately
after lubrication, since dust may stick to the pipe surface
to cause poor sealability if a long time passes after
lubrication.
Test/Inspection After Assembling
1. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
2. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position and check
pump startup sound. As the pump is actuated to raise
fuel pressure, check and see fuel leak from the piping
system.
3. Make sure of no fuel leakage by conducting the above
fuel leak check a few times.
4. Start the engine and make sure of stable idling speed
and normal vehicle run.The entry of dust during the
work may sometimes affect the fuel injection system.

The data displayed on the other Tech 2 will appear the
same, with some exceptions. Some Tech 2s will only be
able to display certain vehicle parameters as values that
are a coded representation of the true or actual value. For
more information on this system of coding, refer to
Decimal/Binary/Hexadecimal Conversions. On this
vehicle Tech 2 displays the actual values for vehicle
parameters. It will not be necessary to perform any
conversions from coded values to actual values.
On-Board Diagnostic (OBD)
On-Board Diagnostic Tests
A diagnostic test is a series of steps, the result of which is
a pass or fail reported to the diagnostic executive. When
a diagnostic test reports a pass result, the diagnostic
executive records the following data:
The diagnostic test has been completed since the last
ignition cycle.
The diagnostic test has passed during the current
ignition cycle.
The fault identified by the diagnostic test is not
currently active.
W h e n a d i a g n o s t i c t e s t r e p o r t s a fail result, the diagnostic
executive records the following data:
The diagnostic test has been completed since the last
ignition cycle.
The fault identified by the diagnostic test is currently
active.
The fault has been active during this ignition cycle.
The operating conditions at the time of the failure.
Remember, a fuel trim DTC may be triggered by a list of
vehicle faults. Make use of all information available (other
DTCs stored, rich or lean condition, etc.) when
diagnosing a fuel trim fault.
Comprehensive Component Monitor
Diagnostic Operation
Input Components:
Input components are monitored for circuit continuity and
out-of-range values. This includes rationality checking.
Rationality checking refers to indicating a fault when the
signal from a sensor does not seem reasonable, i.e.
Throttle Position (TP) sensor that indicates high throttle
position at low engine loads or MAP voltage. Input
components may include, but are not limited to the
following sensors:
Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor
Knock Sensor (KS)
Throttle Position (TP) sensor
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor
Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor
Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor
Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensorIn addition to the circuit continuity and rationality check,
the ECT sensor is monitored for its ability to achieve a
steady state temperature to enable closed loop fuel
control.
Output Components:
Output components are diagnosed for proper response to
control module commands. Components where
functional monitoring is not feasible will be monitored for
circuit continuity and out-of-range values if applicable.
Output components to be monitored include, but are not
limited to, the following circuits:
Idle Air Control (IAC) Motor
Electronic Transmission controls
A/C relays
Cooling fan relay
VSS output
MIL control
Cruise control inhibit
Refer to PCM and Sensors in General Descriptions.
Passive and Active Diagnostic Tests
A passive test is a diagnostic test which simply monitors a
vehicle system or component. Conversely, an active test,
actually takes some sort of action when performing
diagnostic functions, often in response to a failed passive
test. For example, the EGR diagnostic active test will
force the EGR valve open during closed throttle decel
and/or force the EGR valve closed during a steady state.
Either action should result in a change in manifold
pressure.
Intrusive Diagnostic Tests
This is any on-board test run by the Diagnostic
Management System which may have an effect on
vehicle performance or emission levels.
Warm-Up Cycle
A warm-up cycle means that engine at temperature must
reach a minimum of 70
C (160F) and rise at least 22C
(40
F) over the course of a trip.
Freeze Frame
Freeze Frame is an element of the Diagnostic
Management System which stores various vehicle
information at the moment an emissions-related fault is
stored in memory and when the MIL is commanded on.
These data can help to identify the cause of a fault. Refer
to
Storing And Erasing Freeze Fame Data for more
detailed information.
Failure Records
Failure Records data is an enhancement of the OBD
Freeze Frame feature. Failure Records store the same
vehicle information as does Freeze Frame, but it will store
that information for any fault which is stored in on-board
memory, while Freeze Frame stores information only for
emission-related faults that command the MIL on.
