of the magnet ic switch.
CAUTION
This test must be performed quickly (in less than
10 seconds) to prevent the coil from burning.
2. Connect a 12-volt battery between the S-terminal and body.
3. Manually pull out the pinion as far as the pinion stopper position.
4. If the pinion remains out, everything is in order. If
the pinion moves in, the hold-in circuit is open.
Replace the magnetic switch.

1. Place the starter motor in a vise equipped with soft jaws and connect a fully-charged 12-volt
battery to the starter motor as follows:
2. Connect a test ammeter (100-ampere scale) and carbon pile rheostat in series between the battery
(+) terminal and starter motor terminal.
3. Connect a voltmeter (15-volt scale) across the starter motor.
4. Rotate the rheostat to full-resistance position.
5. Connect the battery c able from the battery (-)
terminal to the starter motor body.
6. Adjust the rheostat until the battery voltage shown
on the voltmeter is 11 V.
7. Confirm that the maximum amperage is within the specifications and that the starter motor turns
smoothly and freely.
Current:
<4G1> maximum 95 Amps
<4G6> maximum 90 Amps

IGNITION SYSTEM
ENGINE ELECTRICAL16-30
IGNITION SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATIONM1163000100294
This system is equipped with two ignition coils (A and
B) with built-in power transistors for the No. 1 and
No. 4 cylinders and the No. 2 and No. 3 cylinders
respectively.
Interruption of the primary current flowing in the pri-
mary side of ignition coil A generates a high voltage
in the secondary side of ignition coil A. The high volt
-
age thus generated is applied to the spark plugs of
No. 1 and No. 4 cylinders to generate sparks. At the
time that the sparks are generated at both spark
plugs, if one cylinder is at the compression stroke,
the other cylinder is at the exhaust stroke, so that
ignition of the compressed air/fuel mixture occurs
only for the cylinder which is at the compression
stroke.
In the same way, when the primary current flowing in
ignition coil B is interrupted, the high voltage thus
generated is applied to the spark plugs of No. 2 and
No. 3 cylinders.
The engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU
turns the two power transistors inside the ignition
coils alternately on and off. This causes the primary
currents in the ignition coils to be alternately inter
-
rupted and allowed to flow to fire the cylinders in the
order 1-3-4-2.
The engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU
determines which ignition coil should be controlled
by means of the signals from the camshaft position
sensor which is incorporated in the camshaft and
from the crank angle sensor which is incorporated in
the crankshaft. It also detects the crankshaft position
in order to provide ignition at the most appropriate
timing in response to the engine operation condi
-
tions. It also detects the crankshaft position in order
to provide ignition at the most appropriate timing in
response to the engine operation conditions.
When the engine is cold or operated at high alti-
tudes, the ignition timing is slightly advanced to pro-
vide optimum performance.
When the automatic transmission shifts gears, the
ignition timing is also retarded in order to reduce out
-
put torque, thereby alleviating shifting shocks.

EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULA
T ION
(EGR) SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMAT ION (EGR SYSTEM)
M1173 0052 0032 7
The exhaust gas recircu l atio n (EGR) system lowers
the nitrogen
oxide (NOx) emission level.
When the air/fuel mixture combus tio n temp erature is
high,
a larg e qua ntity of nitrogen oxides (NOx) is
generat
ed in the comb ustion chamb e r .
Therefor e, this syst em re circulat es p a rt o f emission
gas fro
m the e x ha ust po rt of the cylinder h ead to th e
combust
i on chamber thro ugh th e int a ke ma nifold to
decre
ase the air/fuel mixture combust i on te mpera
-
ture, resulting in redu ctio n of NOx.
The EGR flow rate is cont rolle d by the EGR valve so
as no
t to de crease the driveability .
OPERAT ION
The EGR valve is being clos ed an d does not re circu-
late ex hau st ga ses unde r one o f the fo llo wing condi-
tions.
Otherwise, th e EGR va lve is opene d an d recircul ates
exha
ust g a ses.
•The engine coolan t temperature is low .
•The engine is at idle.
•The throttle va lve is widely ope ned.
