(b) When installing the battery, be especially careful not to in-
correctly connect the positive (+) and negative (±) cables.
(c) Do not permit parts to receive a severe impact during re-
moval or installation. Handle all SFI parts carefully, espe-
cially the ECM.
(d) Be careful during troubleshooting as there are numerous
transistor circuit, and even slight terminal contact can
cause further troubles.
(e) Do not open the ECM cover.
(f) When inspecting during rainy weather, take care to pre-
vent entry of water. Also, when washing the engine
compartment, prevent water from getting on the SFI parts
and wiring connectors.
(g) Parts should be replaced as an assembly.
(h) Care should be taken when pulling out and inserting wir-
ing connectors.
(1) Release the lock and pull out the connector, pulling
on the connectors.
(2) Fully insert the connector and check that it is locked.
(i) Use SST for inspection or test of the injector or its wiring
connector.

7. FUEL SYSTEM
(a) When disconnecting the high fuel pressure line, a large
amount of gasoline will spill out, so observe these proce-
dures.
(1) Disconnect the fuel pump connector.
(2) Start the engine. After the engine has stopped on
its own, turn the ignition switch to LOCK.
(3) Disconnect the fuel tube from the fuel tank.
(4) Drain the fuel remained inside the fuel tube.

(f) Wipe off any splattered gasoline.
(g) Reconnect the negative (±) terminal cable to the battery.
(h) Connect the TOYOTA hand±held tester to the DLC3.
If you have no TOYOTA hand±held tester, connect the positive
(+) lead from the battery to terminal 3 of the connecter, and the
negative (±) lead to terminal 7.
(i) Measure the fuel pressure.
Fuel pressure:
304 ± 343 kPa (3.1 ± 3.5 kgf/cm
2, 44 ± 50 psi)
If pressure is high, replace the fuel tank.
If pressure is low, check the Fuel hoses and connections, Fuel
pump.
(j) Disconnect the TOYOTA hand±held tester from the
DLC3.
(k) Start the engine.
(l) Measure the fuel pressure at idle.
Fuel pressure:
304 ± 343 kPa (3.1 ± 3.5 kgf/cm
2, 44 ± 50 psi)
(m) Stop the engine.
(n) Check that the fuel pressure remains as specified for 5
minutes after the engine has stopped.

1. INSPECT SYSTEM OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the throttle control motor connector.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(c) Inspect the throttle position sensor function.
(1) Connect the TOYOTA hand±held tester to the
DLC3.
(2) When turning the throttle linkage to the full open
position, check that the throttle valve opening per-
centage (THROTTLE POS) of the CURRENT DATA
shows the standard value.
Throttle valve opening percentage: 60 % or more
If operation is not as specified, check that the throttle position
sensor, wiring and ECM.
(d) Connect the throttle control motor connector.
(e) Transit to the inspection mode and start the engine.
(f) Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating tempera-
ture.
(g) To check the charging rate of the HV battery, move the
shift lever to D range and check that the engine stops.
If it does not stop, the charging rate may be low. With the shift
lever in P range, keep running the engine for a while. Then, shift
lever to D range again and check that the engine stops.
(h) Start the engine.
(i) Turn the A/C switch ON and OFF, and check the idle
speed.
Idle speed (Transmission in neutral):
1,000 ± 50 rpm (A/C OFF)
1,200 ± 50 rpm (A/C ON)
NOTICE:
Perform inspection under condition without electrical load.
(j) Stop the engine and disconnect TOYOTA hand±held tes-
ter from the DLC3.
2. INSPECT THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR
(a) Disconnect the throttle control motor connector.
(b) Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between ter-
minal M+ and M±.
Resistance: 0.3 ± 100 W at 20°C (68°F)
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the throttle body.

REPLACEMENT
1. DRAIN ENGINE COOLANT
(a) Remove the radiator cap.
CAUTION:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the ra-
diator cap while the engine and radiator are still hot, as fluid
and steam can be blown out under pressure.
(b) Loosen the radiator drain plug (on the right side of the ra-
diator lower tank) and engine drain plug on the engine
coolant drain union (on the right front of the cylinder
block), and drain the coolant.
(c) Close the drain plugs.
Torque: 12.7 N´m (130 kgf´cm, 9 ft´lbf) for engine
2. FILL ENGINE COOLANT
(a) Slowly fill the system with coolant.
Use of improper coolants may damage the engine
cooling system.
Use ºToyota Long Life Coolantº or equivalent and
mix it with plain water according to the manufacture
directions.
Use of the coolant which includes more than 50%
[freezing protection down to ±35°C (±31°F)] or 60%
[freezing protection down to ±50°C (±58°F)] of eth-
ylene±glycol is recommended, but not more than
70%.
NOTICE:
Do not use an alcohol type coolant or plain water
alone.
The coolant should be mixed with plain water (prefer-
ably demineralized water or distilled water).
Capacity: 4.9 litters (5.2 US qts, 4.3 lmp qts)
(b) Install the radiator cap and start the engine. After repeat-
edly idling and racing the engine several times for approx.
2 minutes, stop the engine.
(c) Remove the radiator cap and fill the radiator with engine
coolant until it reaches the rim of the radiator filler.
If the engine coolant level of the radiator drops when grasping
the radiator inlet hose and outlet hose several times by hand,
add more coolant.
(d) Install the radiator cap. Activate inspection mode (See
page IN±10). Warm it up until the radiator fan starts to turn
with the engine speed at less than 2,500 rpm.
NOTICE:
Stop the engine immediately after the radiator fan starts to
turn.
(e) Stop the engine and cool it down.
NOTICE:
Cool down the engine until its temperature becomes below
50°C (122 °F).

INSPECTION
1. CHECK ENGINE OIL QUALITY
Check the oil for deterioration, entry of water, discoloring or thin-
ning.
If the quality is visibly poor, replace the oil.
Oil grade:
API grade or SJ, Energy±Conserving or ILSAC multi-
grade engine oil is recommended. SAE 5W±30 is the
best choice for your vehicle, for good fuel economy,
and good starting in cold weather.
2. CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL
After warming up the engine and then 5 minutes after the en-
gine stop, oil level should be between the ºLº and ºFº marks on
the dipstick.
If low. check for leakage and add oil up to the ºFº mark.
NOTICE:
Do not fill with engine oil above the ºFº mark.
3. REMOVE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH, AND INSTALL OIL
PRESSURE GAUGE
(a) Remove the oil pressure switch.
(b) Install the oil pressure gauge.
4. ACTIVATE INSPECTION MODE AND WARM UP EN-
GINE (See page IN±10)
Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating temperature.
5. CHECK OIL PRESSURE
Oil pressure:
At idle speed
29 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm
2, 4.3 psi) or more
At 2,250 rpm
150 ± 550 kPa (1.5 ± 5.6 kgf/cm
