ldle Control System
Fast ldle Thermo Valve lA/T)
Description
To prevent erratic running when the engine is warming
up, it is necessary to raise the idle speed. The fast idle
thermo valve is controlled by a thermowax plunger.
When the engine is cold, the engine coolant surround-
ing the thermowax contracts the plunger, allowing addi-
tional air to be bvDassed into the intake manifold so that
the engine idles faster. When the engine reaches operat-
ing temperature. the valve closes, reducing the amount
of air bypassing into the intake manifold.

NOTE: The fast idle thermo valve is factory adjusted; it
should not be disassembled.
1. Remove the intake air duct from the throttle body.
2. Start the engine,
3. Put your finger over the lower port in throttle body,
and make sure that there is air flow with the engine
cold (engine coolant temperature below 86"F, 30'C).
lf there is no air flow, replace the fast idle thermo
valve and retest,

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.
Check that the valve is completely closed. lf the valve
is leaking, the idle speed will drop when you cover the
lower pon. Check the engine coolant level and for air
in the engine cooling system {see section 10). lf the
cooling system is OK, replace the fast idle thermo
valve and recheck.

Emission Control System
System Description
The emission control system includes, a Three Way
Catalytic Converter {TWC), Positive Crankcase Ventilation
(PCV) svstem and Evaporative Emission (€VAP) Control
system. The emission control system is designed to meet
federal and state emission standards.

!@ Do not smoke during this procsdura. Keep
any open tlame away from your work area.
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.
Check and, if necessary, adjust the idle speed, (see
page 11-169, 170).
Warm up and calibrate the CO meter according to the
meter manufacturer's instructions.
Check idle CO with the headlights, heater blower, rear
window defogger, cooling fan, and air conditioner off.
(Canada) Pull the parking brake lever up. Start the
engine, then check that the headlights are off.
CO meter should indicate 0.1% maximum.

Shift Control
The PCM determines which gear should be selected by various signals sent from sensors, and actuates the shift control
solenoid valves A and B to control shifting. Also. a Grade Logic Control System has been adopted to control shifting in E
anO E ('gZ - gg), and E ('99 - 00) position while the vehicle is ascending or descending a slope, or reducing speeo.

Lock-up Control
From sensor input signals, the PCM determines whether to turn the lock-up ON or OFF, and activates lock-up control
solenoid valve A and/or B accordingly. Lock-up does not occur until the engine is warm. The combination of driving sig-
nals to lock-up control solenoid valves A and B and the linear solenoid pressure is shown in the table below.

Regulator Valve
The regulator valve maintains constant hydraulic pressure from the ATF pump to the hydraullc control system, while also
furnishing fluid to the lubricating system and torque converter. Fluid from the ATF pump flows through B and B'. Fluid
entering from B flows through the valve orifice to the A cavity. This pressure of the A cavity pushes the regulator valve to
the right side. and this movement of the regulator valve uncovers the fluid port to the torque converter and the relief
valve. The fluid flows out to the torque converter and the relief valve, and the regulator valve moves to the left side.
According to the level of the hydraulic pressure through B, the position of the regulator valve changes and the amount of
fluid from B,through the torque converter also changes. This operation is continued, maintaining the line pressure.
NOTE; When used, "|eft" or "right" indicates direction on the illustration below.
ENGINE NOT RUNNING
STATOR SHAFT ABM
Stator Reaction Hydraulic Pressurs Control
Increases in hydraulic pressure according to torque are performed by the regulator valve using stator torque reaction. The
stator shaft is splined to the stator in the torque converter, and its arm end contacts the regulator spring cap When the
vehicle is accelerating or climbing (Torque Converter Range), stator torque reaction acts on the stator shaft, and the stator
arm pushes the regulator spring cap in the direction of the arrow in proportion to the reaction. The stator reaction spring
compresses, and the regulator valve moves to increase the line pressure. Line pressure reaches its maximum when the
stator torque reaction reaches its maximum.
