NOTICE:
When checking the ignition timing, the transmission is in
the neutral position.
HINT:
Run the engine at 1,000 to 1,300 rpm for 5 seconds, then check
that the engine speed returns to the idle speed.
(6) Disconnect terminals 13 (TC) and 4 (CG) of the
DLC3.
(7) Inspect the ignition timing at idle.

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE
ASSY
(a) Check the operation.
(1) Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
(2) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(3) Start the engine and allow it to warm up.
(4) Connect the hand-held tester, then select VVT from
the ACTIVE TEST menu.
(5) Check the engine speed when the OCV is operated
with the hand-held tester.
Standard:
Tester OperationSpecified Condition
OCV is OFFNormal engine speed
OCV is ONRough idle or engine stall
If the operation is not as specified, inspect the camshaft timing
oil control valve (see page 10-2).
2. INSPECT THROTTLE BODY ASSY
(a) Check the operation (throttle control motor).
(1) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(2) When turning the accelerator pedal position sensor
lever, check the running sound of the motor. Also,
check that there is no friction sound.
If the operation is not as specified, inspect the throttle body (see
page 10-2).
(b) Check the operation (throttle position sensor).
(1) Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
(2) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(3) Check that the check engine warning light does not
light up.
(4) Check that the throttle valve opening percentage
(THROTTLE POS) of CURRENT DATA showns the
standard value.
Standard throttle valve opening percentage:
60 % or more
NOTICE:
When checking the standard throttle valve opening per-
centage, the transmission is in the neutral position.
3. INSPECT ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR
(a) Inspect the voltage.
(1) After turning the ignition switch ON, check CURRENT DATA, then verify that the throttle position
sensor voltage is within the standard value.
Standard voltage: 0.6 to 1.0 V
If the voltage is not as specified, inspect the accelerator pedal (see page 10-2).

(b) Disconnect the fuel tube No. 1.
(1) Pinch the tube connector, then pull out the fuel tube
No. 1.
NOTICE:
Check around the quick connector for dirt or mud be-
fore this operation. Remove the dirt if necessary.
Be careful of mud because the quick connector has
an O-ring which seals the pipe and quick connector
that can be contaminated.
Do not use any tools in this operation.
Do not bend or twist the nylon tube. Protect the quick
connector by covering it with a vinyl or plastic bag.
When the pipe and quick connector are stuck, push
and pull the quick connector to release. Pull out the
quick connector carefully.
(c) Set up a transmission jack underneath the fuel tank.
(d) Remove the 2 bolts which hold the fuel tank bands.
(e) Loosen the clamp bolt.
(f) Operate the transmission jack, then disconnect the fuel
tank inlet pipe.
(g) Disconnect the fuel tank vent hose from the charcoal can-
ister.
(1) Deeply push the quick connector to release the lock
pin.
(2) Pinch portion A.
(3) Pull out the fuel tank vent hose.
(h) Operate the transmission jack, then remove the fuel tank.
(i) Remove the 2 pins, then remove the 2 fuel tank bands as
shown in the illustration.
