Troubleshooting
If the CO/HC concentration does not comply with
regulations, perform troubleshooting in the order
given below.
(a) Check oxygen sensor operation.
(See page EG1±231)
(b) See the table below for possible causes, then inspect
and correct the applicable causes if necessary.
1. Faulty ignitions:
wIncorrect timing
wFouled, shorted or improperly gapped plugs
wOpen or crossed high±tension cords
wCracked distributor cap
2. Incorrect valve clearance
3. Leaky EGR valve
4. Leaky intake and exhaust valves
5. Leaky cylinder
1. Restricted air filter
2. Faulty MFI/SFI systems
wFaulty pressure regulator
wClogged fuel return line
wDefective engine coolant temp. sensor
wDefective intake air temp. sensor
wFaulty ECM
wFaulty injector
wFaulty throttle position sensor
wMAP sensor 1. Vacuum leaks:
wPCV hose
wEGR valve
wIntake manifold
wThrottle body
w!AC valve
wBrake booster line
