Diagnostic procedure
14 POOR FUEL ECONOMY
DESCRIPTIONFuel economy is unsatisfactory.
POSSIBLE CAUSE•Contaminated air cleaner element
•VIS malfunction (if equipped)
•Engine cooling system malfunction
•Improper ATF level (ATX)
•Weak spark
•Poor fuel quality
•Erratic or no signal from CMP sensor
•Clutch slippage (MTX)
•VTCS malfunction
•Improper variable valve timing control system operation (if equipped)
•Improper coolant level
•Inadequate fuel pressure
•Spark plug malfunction
•PCV valve malfunction
•Brake dragging
•Improper valve timing due to jumping out of timing belt
•Contaminated MAF sensor
•Improper engine compression
•Exhaust system clogging
•Improper electrically controlled 4WD system operation
Warning
The following troubleshooting flow chart contains fuel system diagnosis and repair
procedures. Read following warnings before performing fuel system services:
•Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always
keep sparks and flames away from fuel.
•Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or
death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete
“BEFORE REPAIR PROCEDURE” and “AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE” described in this
manual.
Caution
•Disconnecting/connecting quick release connector without cleaning it may possibly cause
damage to fuel pipe and quick release connector. Always clean quick release connector
joint area before disconnecting/connecting, and make sure that it is free of foreign material.
STEP INSPECTION RESULTS ACTION
1 Inspect for following:
•Air cleaner element for contamination
•ATF level
•Fuel quality
•Coolant level
•Brake dragging
•Clutch slippage
Are all items okay?Yes Go to next step.
No Service as necessary.
Repeat Step 1.
2 Connect WDS or equivalent to DLC-2.
Retrieve any continuous memory, KOEO and
KOER DTCs.

CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATIONA6E404018230201
Caution
•When foreign material, such as iron chips, gets on the CKP sensor, it can cause abnormal output
from the sensor because of flux turbulence and adversely affect engine control. Be sure there is
no foreign material on the CKP sensor when replacing.
•Do not forcefully pull the wiring harness of the CKP sensor. Doing so will break the harness.
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the crankshaft pulley. (See B2–9 TIMING BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
3. Remove the lower timing belt cover. (See B2–9 TIMING BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
4. Remove in the order indicated in the table.
