Electric Governor
The electric governor is built into the fuel injection pump. It
moves the control sleeve to increase or decrease the amount of
fuel injected.
When current flows through the coil, a magnetic force is
produced, rotating the rotor. The rotor shaft is installed to the
control sleeve via a ball pin which is eccentrically situated in
relation to the rotor shaft. With this arrangement, the control
sleeve can be moved in relation to rotor rotation.
The rotor's rotating angle is determined by a balanced condition
of magnetic force (generated by current flow regulated by means
of the ECM) and tension of return spring (installed to rotor). The
larger the current flow through the coil, the greater the rotor's
rotating angle. This means that the control sleeve moves to the
right, increasing the amount of fuel injected.
The ECM regulates the current flow through the coil by chang-
ing the duty cycle ratio which controls the ON-OFF operation of
the electric governor grounding circuit.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CONFIRMATION
PROCEDURE
1) Turn ignition switch to ªONº position and select ªDATA
MONITORº mode with CONSULT-II.
2) Start engine above 1,200 rpm.
3) Run it for 2 seconds above 1,200 rpm. Return engine
speed to idle.
NOTE:
If malfunction occurs intermittently, conduct suitable driv-
ing pattern for 10 minutes. This makes it possible to deter-
mine the diagnostic trouble.

Injection Timing Control Valve
The injection timing control valve is built into the fuel injection
pump. It controls the timer piston to change the fuel injection
timing.
The timing control valve is a solenoid valve located in the line
between high-pressure chamber and low-pressure chamber. It
changes fuel pressure in the high-pressure chamber.
When current flows through the solenoid (the solenoid turns ON),
the timing control valve opens, advancing fuel injection timing.
When current does not flow through it, the timing control valve
closes, retarding injection timing.
The ECM emits an ON-OFF duty cycle signal. The longer the
OFF-duration, the greater the advance angle. The longer the
ON-duration, the greater the retard angle. This means that
changing the ON-OFF duty cycle ratio makes it possible to
achieve an optimal advance angle and accurately control fuel
injection timing.
