[A] Fig. 1 for Step 5 / [B] Fig. 2 for Step 7 / [C] Fig. 3 for Step 810 Check fuel supply as follows :
1) Check to make sure that enough fuel is filled
in fuel tank.
2) Turn ON ignition switch for 2 seconds and
then OFF. See Fig. 5.
Is fuel return pressure (returning sounds) felt
from fuel feed hose (1) when ignition switch is
turned ON?Go to Step 12. Go to Step 11.
11 Check fuel pump for operating.
1) Was fuel pump operating sound heard from
fuel filler for about 2 seconds after ignition
switch ON and stop?Go to “Diag. Flow Table
B-3”.Go to “Diag. Flow Table
B-2”.
12 Check ignition spark as follows :
1) Disconnect injector couplers.
2) Remove spark plugs and connect them to
high tension cords.
3) Ground spark plugs.
4) Crank engine and check if each spark plug
sparks.
Is it in good condition?Go to Step 13. Go to “Ignition Spark Test”
in Section 6F.
13 Check fuel injector for operation as follows :
1) Install spark plugs and connect injector con-
nectors.
2) Using sound scope (2), check operating
sound of each injector (3) when cranking
engine. See Fig. 6.
Was injector operating sound heard from all
injectors?Go to “Engine Diagnosis
Table”.Go to “Diag. Flow Table
B-1”. Step Action Yes No
