CAUTION: The left and right fuel rails are replaced
as an assembly. Do not attempt to separate rail
halves at connector tube (Fig. 22). Due to design of
tube, it does not use any clamps. Never attempt to
install a clamping device of any kind to tube. When
removing fuel rail assembly for any reason, be care-
ful not to bend or kink tube.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
VISUAL INSPECTION
A visual inspection for loose, disconnected or incor-
rectly routed wires, vacuum lines and hoses should
be made. This should be done before attempting to
diagnose or service the fuel injection system. A visual
check will help spot these faults and save unneces-
sary test and diagnostic time. A thorough visual
inspection will include the following checks:
(1) Verify three 32±way electrical connectors are
fully inserted into connector of Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) (Fig. 1).
(2) Inspect battery cable connections. Be sure they
are clean and tight.
(3) Inspect fuel pump relay and air conditioning
compressor clutch relay (if equipped). Inspect ASD
and oxygen sensor heater relay connections. Inspect
starter motor relay connections. Inspect relays for
signs of physical damage and corrosion. The relays
are located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC)
(Fig. 2). Refer to label on PDC cover for relay loca-
tion.
(4) Inspect ignition coil connections (Fig. 3)or (Fig.
4).
(5) Verify camshaft position sensor wire connector
is firmly connected (Fig. 5) or (Fig. 6).
(6) Verify crankshaft position sensor wire connec-
tor is firmly connected (Fig. 7) or (Fig. 8).

fittings on intake manifold, and for emission system
are tight and not leaking.
(12) Inspect accelerator cable, transmission throt-
tle cable (if equipped) and speed control cable connec-
tions (if equipped). Check their connections to
throttle body linkage for any binding or restrictions.
(13) Verify vacuum booster hose is firmly con-
nected to fitting on intake manifold. Also check con-
nection to brake vacuum booster.(14) Inspect air cleaner inlet and air cleaner ele-
ment for dirt or restrictions.
(15) Inspect radiator grille area, radiator fins and
air conditioning condenser for restrictions.
(16) 4.0L Engine: Verify MAP, Intake Manifold Air
Temperature (IAT) sensor, TPS and Idle Air Control
(IAC) motor connectors are firmly connected (Fig. 9).

THROTTLE BODY
DESCRIPTION
The throttle body is located on the intake manifold.
Fuel does not enter the intake manifold through the
throttle body. Fuel is sprayed into the manifold by
the fuel injectors.
OPERATION
Filtered air from the air cleaner enters the intake
manifold through the throttle body. The throttle body
contains an air control passage controlled by an Idle
Air Control (IAC) motor. The air control passage is
used to supply air for idle conditions. A throttle valve
(plate) is used to supply air for above idle conditions.
Certain sensors are attached to the throttle body.
The accelerator pedal cable, speed control cable and
transmission control cable (when equipped) are con-
nected to the throttle body linkage arm.A (factory adjusted) set screw is used to mechani-
cally limit the position of the throttle body throttle
plate.Never attempt to adjust the engine idle
speed using this screw.All idle speed functions are
controlled by the PCM.
