ENGINE AND EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (SFI FOR G13) 6E2-37
1) Disconnect purge hose (1) from EVAP canister.
2) Place finger against the end of disconnected hose and check
that vacuum is not felt there when engine is cool and running at
idle speed.
3) Connect purge hose to EVAP canister and warm up engine to
normal operating temperature.
4) Disconnect purge hose from EVAP canister.
5) Also check that vacuum is felt when engine is running at idle
speed.
NOTE:
The EVAP canister purge system does not perform purging
(vacuum is not detected at the purge hose) unless the en-
gine is sufficiently warmed up and the heated oxygen sen-
sor is activated fully. Also, when the purge hose is discon-
nected in Step 4), the air is drawn into the purge line. As a
result, ECM (PCM) detects a change in the purge gas con-
centration and sometimes stops purging but this indicates
nothing abnormal.
If check result is not satisfactory, check vacuum passage, hoses,
EVAP canister purge valve, wire harness and ECM (PCM).
Vacuum Passage Inspection
Start engine and run it at idle speed. Disconnect vacuum hose (1)
from EVAP canister purge valve (2). With finger placed against
hose disconnected, check that vacuum is applied.
If it is not applied, clean vacuum passage by blowing compressed
air.
Vacuum Hose Inspection
Check hoses for connection, leakage, clog and deterioration. Re-
place as necessary.
EVAP Canister Purge Valve Inspection
Check EVAP canister purge valve referring to step 1 of DTC P0443
Flow Table.
If found malfunction, replace.

EVAP Canister Inspection
WARNING:
DO NOT SUCK nozzles on EVAP canister. Fuel vapor inside
EVAP canister is harmful.
1) Check outside of EVAP canister visually.
2) Disconnect vacuum hoses from EVAP canister.
3) Check that there should be no restriction of flow through purge
pipe (2) and air pipe (3) when air is blown (4) into tank pipe (1).
If any faulty condition is found in above inspection replace.
PCV SYSTEM
NOTE:
Be sure to check that there is no obstruction in PCV valve or
its hoses before checking IAC duty, for obstructed PCV valve
or hose hampers its accurate adjustment.
PCV Hose Inspection
Check hoses for connection, leakage, clog and deterioration.
Replace as necessary.
PCV Valve Inspection
1) Disconnect PCV valve (1) from cylinder head cover and install
plug to head cover hole.
2) Run engine at idle.
3) Place your finger over end of PCV valve (1) to check for vacuum.
If there is no vacuum, check for clogged valve. Replace as nec-
essary.
4) After checking vacuum, stop engine and remove PCV valve (1).
Shake valve and listen for the rattle of check needle inside the
valve. If valve does not the rattle, replace valve.
5) After checking, remove plug and install PCV valve (1).

The ignition system used for this vehicle has an elec-
tronic ignition control system and consists of the fol-
lowing parts.
ECM
It detects the engine condition through the signals
from the sensors, determines the most suitable igni-
tion timing and time for electricity to flow to the pri-
mary coil and sends a signal to the power unit.
Power unit (Igniter)
It turns ON and OFF the primary current of the igni-
tion coil according to the signal from ECM.
Ignition coil
When the ignition coil primary current is turned OFF,
a high voltage is induced in the secondary winding.
Distributor
It distributes a high voltage current to each plug.High-tension cords and spark plugs.
CMP sensor (Camshaft position Sensor)
Located in the distributor, it converts the crank angle
into voltage variation and sends it to ECM. For its
details, refer to Section 6E1.
TP sensor, ECT sensor and MAP sensor
For their details, refer to Section 6E.
In electronic ignition control system, the ECM is pro-
grammed for the best ignition timing under every en-
gine condition. Receiving signals which indicate the
engine condition from the sensors, e.g., engine revo-
lution, intake air pressure, coolant temperature, etc.,
it selects the most suitable ignition timing from its
memory and operates the power unit.
Thus ignition timing is controlled to yield the best en-
gine performance.
For more information, refer to Section 6E1.

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with a Supplemental Inflatable Restraint Air Bag System:
Service on or around Air Bag System Components or Wiring must be performed only by an authorized
Suzuki dealer. Please observe all WARNINGS and SERVICE PRECAUTIONS in Section 9J under “On-
Vehicle Service” and the Air Bag System Component and Wiring Location view in Section 9J before
performing service on or around Air Bag System Components or Wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS
could result in unintended air bag deployment or could render the air bag inoperative. Either of these
two conditions may result in severe injury.
SDM can maintain sufficient voltage to cause a deployment of air bags for up to 10 seconds after igni-
tion switch is turned to “LOCK” position, battery is disconnected or fuse powering SDM is removed.
Work must be started after 15 seconds from the time.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
IGNITION SPARK TEST
1) Disconnect injector coupler at throttle body side.
WARNING:
Without disconnection of injector coupler, combustible gas
may come out from spark plug holes during this test and
may get ignited in engine room.
2) Remove spark plugs and connect them to high-tension cords,
and then ground spark plugs.
3) Crank engine and check if each spark plug sparks.
4) If no spark is emitted, inspect high-tension cords, spark plugs,
ignition coil, distributor, etc.
HIGH-TENSION CORDS
1) Remove high-tension cord at ignition coil while gripping its cap.
2) Remove distributor cap installed with high-tension cords.
3) Remove high-tension cord clamp from cylinder head cover.
4) Pull out high-tension cords from spark plugs while gripping each
cap.
CAUTION:
Removal of high-tension cords together with clamps
will be recommended so as not to damage their inside
wire (resistive conductor).
For the same reason, pull out each connection by grip-
ping cap portion.
5) Measure resistance of high-tension cord by using ohmmeter.
High-tension cord resistance: 10 – 22 kΩ/ m (3.0 – 6.7 kΩ/ft)
