1999 MITSUBISHI LANCER EVOLUTION VI Diff

MPI – General13-2
MULTIPOINT INJECTION (MPI)
GENERAL
OUTLINE OF CHANGE

The descriptions of the troubleshooting using an MUT-II tester have been added.

The fuel system and its management of EVOLUTION-VI are different from those of EVOLUTION-V
in the following items. Accordingly, the service procedures for these items are described herein. The
service procedures for the remaining item are the same as those for EVOLUTION-V.

Fan motor control

Fuel pump drive control

Fuel pump relay No.2

Fuel pump resistor

Actuator test function of MUT-II (The test of the following items has been made possible.)
a) Item No.36: Secondary air control solenoid valve
b) Item No.37: Air conditioner condenser fan (High)
c) Item No.38: Air conditioner condenser fan (Low)

MPI – Troubleshooting13-24
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 7
Long time to start (Improper starting)
Probable cause
In cases such as the above, the cause is probably that the spark is weak and ignition
is difficult, the initial mixture for starting is not appropriate, or sufficient compression
pressure is not being obtained.
Malfunction of the ignition system

Malfunction of the injector system

Inappropriate gasoline use

Poor compression
Check system voltage when cranking
OK:8 V or higherNGCheck the battery.
OK
MUT-II: Check if uncomplete combustion occurs.
(Refer to P.13-48, INSPECTION PROCEDURE 39.)
OK
Can any sound be heard from the injectors when cranking (check
using a soundscope)?NGCheck the injector system. (Refer to P.13-15, INSPECTION PRO-
CEDURE FOR DIAGNOSIS CODE 41.)
OK
Check the ignition timing when cranking.
OK:Approx. 5BTDCNGCheck that the crank angle sensor and the timing belt cover are
installed properly.
OK
Check the following items.

Check the ignition coil, spark plugs, spark plug cables.

Check the injectors for clogging and leakage.

Check the compression pressure.

Check if foreign materials (water, alcohol, etc.) got into fuel.
