NOTE: Before setting the idle speed, check the follow-
ing items:- The MIL has not been reported on.- lgnition timing- Spark plugs
- Air cleaner- PCV system
1. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3.000 rpm with
no load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan
comes on, then let it idle.
Connect a tachometer.
Disconnect the IAC valve 2P connector and the EVAP
purge control solenoid valve 2P connector.

lf the engine stalls, restart the engine with the accel-
erato. pedal slightly depressed. Stabilize the rpm at
1,000, then slowly release the pedal until the engine
idles.
Che€k the idle in no-load conditions: headlights, blow-
er fan, rear defogger, radiator fan, and air conditioner
are not operating,
ldle speed should bo:
480 t 50 rpm {in PErk or noutrall

lf necessary, adjust the idle speed, by turning the
idle adjusting screw.
After adjusting the idle speed, recheck the ignition
timing (see section 4). lf it is out of spec, go back to
steo 4.tDt.E
6. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
7. Reconnect the 2P connectors to the IAC valve and
the EVAP purge control solenoid valve, then do the
ECM/PCM reset procedure.
8. Restart and idle the engine with no-load conditions
for one minute, then check the idle speed.

PGM-FI Main Relay
Description
The PGM-Fl main relav actuallv contains two individual
relays. This relay is located at the passenger side of the
cowl. One relay is energized whenever the ignition is on
which supplies the battery voltage to the ECM/PCM,
power to the fuel injectors, and power for the second
relay. The second relay is energized for two seconds
when the ignition is switched on, and when the engine
is running, to supply power to the fuel pump
PGM.FIMAIN RELAY
Belay Testing
NOTE: lf the engine starts and continues to run, the
PGM-FI main relay is OK.
1. Remove the glovebox and the passenger's dash-
board lower cover (see section 20).
2. Remove the PGM-FI main relay
3. Aftach the battery positive terminal to the No. 2 ter-
minal and the battery negative terminal to the No. 1
terminal of the PGM-Fl main relay. Then check for
continuity between the No. 5 terminal and No. 4 ter-
minal of the PGM-FI main relay
. lfthere is continuity, go on to step 3.
