ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (SFI FOR G13) 6-1-3
GENERAL INFORMATION
STATEMENT ON CLEANLINESS AND CARE
An automobile engine is a combination of many machined, honed,
polished and lapped surfaces with tolerances that are measured in
the thousands of an millimeter (ten thousands of an inch).
Accordingly, when any internal engine parts are serviced, care and
cleanliness are important.
Throughout this section, it should be understood that proper clean-
ing and protection of machined surfaces and friction areas is part
of the repair procedure. This is considered standard shop practice
even if not specifically stated.

A liberal coating of engine oil should be applied to friction areas
during assembly to protect and lubricate the surfaces on initial op-
eration.

Whenever valve train components, pistons, piston rings, con-
necting rods, rod bearings, and crankshaft journal bearings are
removed for service, they should be retained in order.
At the time of installation, they should be installed in the same
locations and with the same mating surfaces as when removed.

Battery cables should be disconnected before any major work is
performed on the engine.
Failure to disconnect cables may result in damage to wire har-
ness or other electrical parts.

Throughout this manual, the four cylinders of the engine are iden-
tified by numbers; No.1 (1), No.2 (2), No.3 (3) and No.4 (4)
counted from crankshaft pulley side to flywheel side.
GENERAL INFORMATION ON ENGINE SERVICE
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION ON ENGINE SERVICE
SHOULD BE NOTED CAREFULLY, AS IT IS IMPORTANT IN PRE-
VENTING DAMAGE, AND IN CONTRIBUTING TO RELIABLE EN-
GINE PERFORMANCE.

When raising or supporting engine for any reason, do not use a
jack under oil pan. Due to small clearance between oil pan and
oil pump strainer, jacking against oil pan may cause it to be bent
against strainer resulting in damaged oil pick-up unit.

It should be kept in mind, while working on engine, that 12-volt
electrical system is capable of violent and damaging short cir-
cuits.
When performing any work where electrical terminals can be
grounded, ground cable of the battery should be disconnected at
battery.

Any time the air cleaner, throttle body or intake manifold is re-
moved, the intake opening should be covered. This will protect
against accidental entrance of foreign material which could follow
intake passage into cylinder and cause extensive damage when
engine is started.

ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (SFI FOR G13) 6-1-9
PRECAUTION IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLE

Don’t disconnect couplers from ECM (PCM), battery cable from
battery, ECM (PCM) ground wire harness from engine or main
fuse before confirming diagnostic information (DTC, freeze frame
data, etc.) stored in ECM (PCM) memory. Such disconnection will
erase memorized information in ECM (PCM) memory.

Diagnostic information stored in ECM (PCM) memory can be
cleared as well as checked by using SUZUKI scan tool (Tech-1)
or generic scan tool. Before using scan tool, read its Operator’s
(Instruction) Manual carefully to have good understanding as to
what functions are available and how to use it.

Priorities for diagnosing troubles
If two or more DTCs are stored, proceed to the flow table of the
DTC which was detected earliest in the order and follow the
instruction in that table.
If no instructions are given, troubleshoot DTCs according to the
following priorities.
1. Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) other than DTC
P0171 / P0172 (Fuel system too lean / too rich), DTC
P0300 / P0301 / P0302 / P0303 / P0304 (Misfire detected) and
DTC P0400 (EGR flow malfunction)
2. DTC P0171 / P0172 (Fuel system too lean / too rich) and DTC
P0400 (EGR flow malfunction)
3. DTC P0300 / P0301 / P0302 / P0303 / P0304 (Misfire detected)

Be sure to read “Precautions for Electrical Circuit Service” in Sec-
tion 0A before inspection and observe what is written there.

ECM (PCM) Replacement
When substituting a known-good ECM (PCM), check for following
conditions. Neglecting this check may cause damage to a known-
good ECM (PCM).
–Resistance value of all relays, actuators is as specified respec-
tively.
–MAP sensor and TP sensor are in good condition and none of
power circuits of these sensors is shorted to ground.

“Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P” range for A/T model), and
set parking brake.
INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
1) Connect SUZUKI scan tool (1) to DLC (2) with ignition switch
OFF.
2) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
3) Make sure that all of electrical loads except ignition are
switched off.
4) Check to be sure that idle speed is within specification.
(Refer to SECTION 6E1)
5) Set timing light to No.1 high-tension cord.
6) Fix ignition timing to initial one as follows:
Select “MISC” made on SUZUKI scan tool and fix ignition tim-
ing to initial one.
7) Using timing light, check that timing is within specification.
Initial ignition timing (Ignition timing fixed):
5 ±3 BTDC (at idle speed)
Ignition order: 1-3-2
Special Tool
(A): 09900-27301 or 09930-76420
8) If ignition timing is out of specification, loosen flange bolts, ad-
just timing by turning distributor assembly while engine is run-
ning, and then tighten bolts.
Tightening Torque
(a): 15 N
.m (1.5 kg-m, 11.0 lb-ft)
9) After tightening distributor flange bolts, recheck that ignition
timing is within specification.
10) After checking and/or adjusting Initial Ignition Timing, release
ignition timing fixation by SUZUKI scan tool.
11) With engine idling (ignition timing not fixed, idle switch ON and
car stopped), check that ignition timing is about 10 BTDC.
(Constant variation within a few degrees from 10 indicates no
abnormality but proves operation of electronic timing control
system.) Also, check that increasing engine speed advances
ignition timing.
If above check results are not satisfactory, check CTP switch,
test switch terminal circuit and ECM.
