ENGINE AND EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (SEQUENTIAL MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION FOR H27 ENGINE) 6E2-15
Idle Speed/Idle Air Control (IAC) Duty Inspec-
tion
Before idle speed/IAC duty check, make sure of the following.
•Lead wires and hoses of engine/emission control systems
are connected securely.
•Accelerator cable is adjusted.
•Ignition timing is within specification.
•All accessories (wipers, heater, lights, A/C, etc.) are out of
service.
•Air cleaner has been properly installed and is in good condi-
tion.
•ECM (PCM) does not detect any malfunction DTC.
After above items are all confirmed, check idle speed and IAC
duty as follows.
[Using SUZUKI scan tool]
1) Connect SUZUKI scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF.
Special tool
(A) : SUZUKI scan tool
2) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
3) Check IAC duty and idle speed by using “Data List” mode of
SUZUKI scan tool.
Engine idle speed:
A/C OFF: 700 ± 50 r/min.
A/C ON: 750 ± 50 r/min.
IAC duty at specified idle speed:
5 – 40 % (at A/C OFF)
4) If duty and/or idle speed is out of specifications, check idle
air control system referring to “DIAG. FLOW TABLE B-4” in
Section 6-1.
5) Check that specified engine idle speed is obtained with A/C
ON if vehicle is equipped with A/C. If not, check A/C ON sig-
nal circuit and idle air control system. NOTE:
Before starting engine, place transmission gear shift
lever in “Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P” range for A/T
vehicle), and set parking brake and block drive wheels.

HEATER INSPECTION
Refer to “HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (SENSOR 1) HEATER
INSPECTION”
Vehicle speed sensor (VSS)
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1) Hoist vehicle.
2) Release parking brake lever, set transmission in neutral and
transfer in “2H”.
3) Remove ECM (PCM) cover.
4) Connector voltmeter between VSS terminal C51-3-1 of ECM
(PCM) connector and body ground.
5) Turn ignition switch ON and turn rear right tire slowly with
rear left tire locked.
Voltmeter should indicate deflection between 0 – 1 V and 8 –
14 V a few times while tire (1) is turned one revolution.
If check result is not satisfactory, proceed to flow table of
“DTC P0500” in Section 6-1.
REMOVAL, INSPECTION AND INSTALLATION
Refer to “VSS Removal, Inspection or Installation” in Section 7D.
Manifold absolute pressure sensor
REMOVAL
1) Disconnect negative (–) cable at battery.
2) Disconnect connector from manifold absolute pressure sen-
sor.
3) Remove manifold absolute pressure sensor from intake
manifold.

Fuel cut operation
INSPECTION
1) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
2) While listening to sound of injector by using sound scope (1)
or such, increase engine speed to higher than 3,000 r/min.
3) Check to make sure that sound to indicate operation of injec-
tor stops when throttle valve is closed instantly and it is
heard again when engine speed is reduced to less than
about 2,000 r/min. NOTE:
Before inspection, check to make sure that gear shift
lever is in Neutral position (with A/T model, selector lever
in “P” range) and that parking brake lever is pulled all the
way up.

6F2-6 IGNITION SYSTEM (FOR H27 ENGINE)
Ignition Spark Check
1) Remove surge tank cover.
2) Disconnect injector coupler (1).
3) Remove spark plug and check it for condition and type, refer-
ring to “SPARK PLUG” in this section.
4) If OK, connect ignition coil coupler to ignition coil assembly
and connect spark plug to ignition coil assembly. Ground
spark plug.
5) Crank engine and check if each spark plug sparks.
If no spark is emitted, inspect the related parts as described
under “DIAGNOSIS” in this section.
6) After checking, install spark plug, referring to “SPARK PLUG”
in this section.
7) Connect injector coupler (1).
8) Install surge tank cover.
Ignition Timing Check and Adjustment
1) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating tempera-
ture.
2) Make sure that all of electrical loads except ignition are
switched off.
3) Check to be sure that idle speed is within specification.
Refer to Section 6E2.
4) Connect SUZUKI scan tool to DLC (1) with ignition switch
OFF, restart engine and fix ignition timing by using fixed
spark mode of SUZUKI scan tool.
Special tool
(A) : SUZUKI scan tool 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.
NOTE:
Before starting engine, place transmission gear shift
lever in “Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P” range for A/T
model), and set parking brake.
