9. INSPECT COMPRESSION
(a) Warm up and stop the engine.
(b) Remove the intake air surge tank (see page 11-13).
(c) Disconnect the injector connectors.
(d) Remove the ignition coils.
(e) Remove the spark plugs.
(f) Inspect the cylinder compression pressure.
(1) Insert a compression gauge into the spark plug
hole.
SST 09992-00500
(2) Fully open the throttle.
(3) While cranking the engine, measure the compres-
sion pressure.
Compression pressure:
1.5 MPa (15.3 kgf/cm
2, 218 psi)
Minimum pressure:
1.0 MPa (10.2 kgf/cm
2, 145 psi)
Difference between each cylinder:
100 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2, 15 psi)
NOTICE:
Always use a fully-charged battery to obtain engine
speed of 250 rpm or more.
Check the other cylinder's compression pressure in
the same way.
This measurement must be done as quickly as pos-
sible.
(4) If the cylinder compression is low, pour a small
amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the
spark plug hole, then inspect again.
HINT:
If adding oil increases the compression, the piston rings
and/or cylinder bore may be worn or damaged.
If pressure stays low, the valve may be sticking or seated
improperly, or there may be leakage past the gasket.
10. INSPECT CO/HC
HINT:
The ECM properly controls the CO/HC concentration in the emission gas.
(a) Start the engine.
(b) Run the engine at 2,500 rpm for approximately 180 seconds.
(c) Insert the CO/HC meter testing probe at least 40 cm (1.3 ft) into the tailpipe during idling.
(d) Check the CO/HC concentration at idle and/or at 2,500 rpm.
HINT:
When doing the 2 mode (with the engine is at idle and at 2,500 rpm) tests, these measuring order are pre-
scribed by the applicable local regulations.
If the CO/HC concentration does not comply with the regulations, troubleshoot in the order given below.
(1) Check the heated oxygen sensor operation (see page 05-126).

FUEL SYSTEM (3MZ-FE)
PRECAUTION
1. PRECAUTION
(a) Before working on the fuel system, disconnect the engine wire No. 3 (battery negative terminal) from
battery.
(b) Do not smoke or work near open flame when working on the fuel system.
(c) Keep gasoline away from the rubber or leather parts.
2. DISCHARGE FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE
CAUTION:
Do not disconnect any parts of the fuel system pres-
sure until you have discharging the fuel system pres-
sure.
Even after discharge the fuel pressure, place a shop
rag over fittings as you separate them in order to re-
duce risk of fuel spray on yourself or in the engine
compartment.
(a) Disconnect the engine wire No. 3 (battery negative termi-
nal).
(b) Remove the circuit opening relay from the engine room
relay block.
(c) Connect the engine wire No. 3 (battery negative terminal).
Torque: 5.4 NVm (55 kgfVcm, 48 in.Vlbf)
(d) Start the engine. After the engine has stopped on its own,
turn the ignition switch OFF.
HINT:
There is a case that DTC P0171 (system to lean) is output.
(e) Check that the engine does not start.
(f) Remove the fuel tank cap, then let the air out of the fuel
tank.
(g) Disconnect battery negative terminal.
(h) Reinstall the circuit opening relay.
3. FUEL SYSTEM
(a) When disconnecting the high fuel pressure line, a large
amount of gasoline will spill out. So observe these proce-
dures.
(1) Work in order to prevent gasoline from spilling out.
(2) Disconnect the fuel pump tube (see page 11-20).
(3) Drain the fuel remaining inside the fuel pump tube.
