5S-FNE ENGINE
1. Description
The 5S-FNE engine is a new engine that uses CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) as fuel, which has been devel-
oped based on the 5S-FE gasoline engine.
The main component of natural gas is methane (CH
4), which has fewer carbous (C) than gasoline (mean mo-
lecular formula: C
7.5H13.4). Therefore, the amount of CO2 discharged by this engine is approximately 70%
that of the gasoline engine. Furthermore, this engine achieves low-emission operation by precisely controlled
air-fuel ratio and using special catalysts for the CNG application.
However, because the fuel is in the gaseous form, its volumetric efficiency is low, causing lower power output
if this fuel is used in the base engine.
Therefore, the 5S-FNE engine has adopted the following features: a high compression ratio, the intake valves
with early closed timing, the intake and exhaust valves with increased lift, a low back pressure muffler made
possible by the 2-way exhaust system, injectors for gaseous fuel, and a catalytic converter designed exclu-
sively for CNG application. At the same time, precision air-fuel ratio control is effected through the use of
the air-fuel ratio sensor* and the heater oxygen sensor, thus achieving the level of performance that is equiva-
lent to the base engine. Moreover, this engine realizes extremely low emissions and restoring engine torque.
*: Already adopted on the California specification 5S-FE engine.

8. Engine Control System
General
An engine control system based on the 5S-FE engine has been adopted. The knock sensor has been discon-
tinued because natural gas has a high octane value and is less susceptible to knocking.
The engine control system of 5S-FNE and 5S-FE engines are compared below.

SFI
Se
quential
A D-type SFI system is used, which indirectly detects
intake air volume by manifold absolute pressure sensor.Sequential
Multiport Fuel
InjectionThe fuel injection system is a sequential multiport fuel
injection system.
Ignition timing is determined by the ECM based on
signals from various sensors.
ESA
Electronic Spark
AdvanceThe ECM corrects the ignition timing in response to
engine knocking in accordance with the signals
received from the knock sensor.

dva ce
Torque control correction during gear shifting had been
used to minimize the shift shock.*1
IAC
(Idle Air Control)A rotary solenoid type IAC valve controls the fast idle
and idle speeds.(1-Coil Type
Built-in Driver)(2-Coil Type)
Fuel Pump ControlFuel pump operation is controlled by signal from the
ECM.Ð
Fuel Cut-Off
Control
The fuel shutoff valves for the fuel tank, fuel pressure
regulator, and delivery pipe are shut off to stop the
supply of fuel when the ignition switch is turned OFF or
during abnormal conditions (such as engine stalling,
SRS airbag deployed, etc.).
Ð
Injector ControlPrevents the frozen stuck of the injector to ensure the
startability of the engine at low temperature.Ð
Oxygen Sensor
and Air Fuel Ratio
Sensor
Heater ControlMaintains the temperature of the oxygen sensor and air
fuel ratio sensor at an appropriate level to increase
accuracy of detection of the oxygen concentration in the
exhaust gas.

EGR Cut-Off
ControlCuts off EGR according to the engine condition to
maintain drivability of the vehicle and durability of the
EGR components.
Evaporative
Emission ControlThe ECM controls the purge flow of evaporative
emissions (HC) in the charcoal canister in accordance
with engine conditions.
Ð
Air Conditioning
Cut-Off ControlBy turning the air conditioning compressor ON or OFF
in accordance with the engine condition, drivability is
maintained.
*3*3
Diagnosis
When the ECM detects a malfunction, the ECM
diagnoses and memorized the failed section.
DiagnosisThe diagnosis system includes a function that detects a
malfunction in the evaporative emission control system.Ð
Fail-Safe
When the ECM detects a malfunction, the ECM stops or
controls the engine according to the data already stored
in memory.
