System DescriptionNEEC0015S02
SEF742M
The ignition timing is controlled by the ECM to maintain the best air-fuel ratio for every running condition of
the engine. The ignition timing data is stored in the ECM. This data forms the map shown above.
The ECM receives information such as the injection pulse width and camshaft position sensor signal. Com-
puting this information, ignition signals are transmitted to the power transistor.
e.g., N: 1,800 rpm, Tp: 1.50 msec
AÉBTDC
During the following conditions, the ignition timing is revised by the ECM according to the other data stored
in the ECM.
+At starting
+During warm-up
+At idle
+At low battery voltage
+During acceleration
The knock sensor retard system is designed only for emergencies. The basic ignition timing is programmed
within the anti-knocking zone, if recommended fuel is used under dry conditions. The retard system does not
operate under normal driving conditions.
If engine knocking occurs, the knock sensor monitors the condition. The signal is transmitted to the ECM. The
ECM retards the ignition timing to eliminate the knocking condition.

System DescriptionNEEC0016S02This system improves engine operation when the air conditioner is used.
Under the following conditions, the air conditioner is turned off.
+When the accelerator pedal is fully depressed.
+When cranking the engine.
+When the engine coolant temperature becomes excessively high.
+When operating power steering and air conditioner during low engine speed or when fully releasing accel-
erator pedal.
+When engine speed is excessively low.

If the engine speed is above 3,000 rpm with no load, (for example, in Neutral and engine speed over 3,000
rpm) fuel will be cut off after some time. The exact time when the fuel is cut off varies based on engine speed.
Fuel cut will operate until the engine speed reaches 1,500 rpm, then fuel cut is cancelled.

This function is different from deceleration control listed under ªMultiport Fuel Injection (MFI) Systemº,

1 INSPECTION START
1. Visually check the following:
+Air cleaner clogging
+Hoses and duct for leaks
+Electrical connectors
+Gasket (intake manifold, cylinder head, exhaust system)
+Throttle valve and throttle position sensor operation
2. Start engine and warm it up until engine coolant temperature indicator points to the middle of gauge.
Ensure engine speed stays below 1,000 rpm.
