INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS
AINJECTORS INSTALLATION
(1) Before installing an injector, the rubber O-ring must be
lubricated with a drop of clean engine oil to aid in
installation.
(2) Install injector top end. Be careful not to damage O-ring
during installation.
BFUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR INSTALLATION
(1) Apply a small amount of new engine oil to the O-ring.
Insert the fuel pressure regulator into the delivery pipe
being careful not to damage the O-ring.
Caution
Be sure not to let engine oil get into the delivery
pipe.
(2) Check that the fuel pressure regulator turns smoothly.
If it does not turn smoothly, the O-ring may be trapped.
Remove the fuel pressure regulator and check the O-ring
for damage, and then re-insert it into the delivery pipe
and check once again.
CGASKET INSTALLATION
Position the projection as shown in the illustration.

(4) Removal the lash adjuster from the container. Then, push
down the steel ball gently and push the plunger to eliminate
diesel fuel from the pressure chamber.
Caution
Make sure the oil hole in the side of the body is pointing
toward container A. Do not point the oil hole at yourself
or other people.
(5) Place the lash adjuster in container B. Then, gently push
down the internal steel ball using wire (0.5 mm in diameter)
or special tool MD998442 and move the plunger through
5 to 10 strokes until it slides smoothly. This operation
will clean the lash adjuster’s pressure chamber.
Caution
The steel ball spring is extremely weak, so the lash
adjuster’s functionality may be lost if the air bleed
wire is pushed in hard.
(6) Remove the lash adjuster from the container. Then, push
down the steel ball gently and push the plunger to eliminate
diesel fuel from the pressure chamber.
Caution
Make sure the oil hole in the side of the body is pointing
toward container A. Do not point the oil hole at yourself
or other people.
(7) Place the lash adjuster in container C. Then, gently push
down the internal steel ball using wire (0.5 mm in diameter)
or special tool MD998442.
Caution
Do not use container C for cleaning. If cleaning is
performed in container C, foreign matter could enter
the pressure chamber when chamber is filled with
diesel fuel.
(8) Stand the lash adjuster with its plunger at the top, then
push the plunger downward firmly until it moves through
its greatest possible stroke. Return the plunger slowly,
then release the steel ball and allow the pressure chamber
to fill with diesel fuel.

DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
ENGINE WARNING LAMP (CHECK ENGINE LAMP)
If an abnormality occurs in any of the following items related
to the Multipoint Fuel Injection (MPI) system, the engine
warning lamp will illuminate.
If the lamp remains illuminated or if the lamp illuminates while
the engine is running, check the diagnosis code output.

METHOD OF READING AND ERASING DIAGNOSIS
CODES
Refer to GROUP 00 – How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection
Service Points.
INSPECTION USING MUT-II DATA LIST AND
ACTUATOR TESTING
1. Carry out inspection by connecting the MUT-II.
If there is an abnormality, check and repair the chassis
harnesses and components.
2. After repairing, check that the abnormal input and output
have returned to normal as a result of the repairs.
3. Erase the diagnosis code memory.
4. Remove the MUT-II and carry out a road test to confirm
that the problem has disappeared.

FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION REFERENCE TABLE
When the main sensor malfunctions are detected by the diagnosis function, the vehicle is controlled
by means of the pre-set control logic to maintain safe conditions for driving.
Malfunctioning itemControl contents during malfunction
Air flow sensor1. Uses the throttle position sensor signal and engine speed signal (crank angle sensor
signal) to take reading of the basic injector drive time and basic ignition timing from
the pre-set mapping.
2. Fixes the ISC servo in the appointed position so idle control is not performed.
Intake air temperature
sensorControls as if the intake air temperature is 25C.
Throttle position
sensorNo increase in fuel injection amount during acceleration due to the throttle position sensor
signal.
Engine coolant
temperature sensor1. Controls as if the engine coolant temperature is 80C.
(This condition is maintained until the ignition switch is turned off even when the
sensor signal returns normal.)
2. Lets the fan motor (radiator and condenser) run at high speed.
Camshaft position
sensorInjects fuel to all cylinders simultaneously for 4 seconds.
(However, after the ignition switch is turned to ON, the No. 1 cylinder top dead centre is not
detected at all.)
Barometric pressure
sensorControls as if the barometric pressure is 101 kPa.
Detonation sensorSwitches the ignition timing from ignition timing for super petrol to ignition timing for standard
petrol.
Ignition coil, power
transistor unitCuts off the fuel supply to cylinders with an abnormal ignition.
Alternator FR terminalDoes not control the output of the alternator according to an electrical load. (works as a
normal alternator)
