4.9 Fuel Lines
Remove
• A depressurised fuel system contains fuel
in the fuel filter and fuel lines that can be
spilled during service operations.
• Fuel vapour remains in the fuel tank even
when completely empty. Seal all openings
in the fuel tank using suitable material or a
plastic plug. Ensure no naked flames or
other ignition sources are nearby. Ensure
all cellular phones (and transmission
devices that may cause any metal objects
to become unintentional receiving
antennas) are switched off.
• Place a dry chemical (Class B) fire
extinguisher nearby before performing any
on-vehicle service procedures. Failure to
follow these precautions may result in
personal injury.
• Wear safety glasses when using
compressed air. Do not blow compressed
air onto any body part.
1 Remove the fuel pump relay, refer to 8A Electrical Body and Chassis.
2 Depressurise the fuel system, refer to 3.4 Fuel System Depressurisation.
Never drain or store fuel into an open
container, due to the possibility of fire or
explosion.
3 Raise the vehicle, preferably on a hoist, refer to 0A General Information.
Before proceeding, clean all traces of dirt and
other foreign material from the fuel lines.
4 Use compressed air to ensure that all dirt and foreign materials are removed from all fuel connections before the parts are disconnected.
5 If required, remove the stone guard, refer to Figure 6C – 17 and fuel lines. Use the following illustrations showing the fuel line layout and location of other items relating to the fuel system as a guide, also refer to 4.1 Fuel Lines

4.10 Rollover Valve
The fuel tank incorporates two rollover valves. The rollover
valve limits vapour venting to the evaporative emission
control canister using a fixed-sized orifice that is normally
open (View A). If the vehicle rolls over (View B), the fuel
tank vent line to the evaporative emission control canister is
safely shut off by the rollover valve, preventing liquid fuel
from flooding the evaporative emission control canister.
NOTE
The rollover valve is welded to the top of the fuel
tank and is not a serviceable item. If the rollover
valve becomes unserviceable, the fuel tank must
be replaced, refer to 4.4 Fuel Tank.

Engine Management – V6 – General Information Page 6C1-1–3
1 General Information
The V6 engine management system
incorporates functions and components that
could cause personal injury or vehicle
damage. Refer to 6C1-2 Engine Management –
V6 – Diagnostics, and 6C1-3 Engine
Management – V6 – Service Operations,
before attempting any diagnosis or repairs.
1.1 Introduction
The V6 engine management system is designed to improve engine performance and increase vehicle safety while
meeting the stringent Euro 3 vehicle emission standard. This is achieved by the introduction of the following engine
management sub-systems and components:
• Throttle actuator control (TAC) System – the TAC system allows the engine control module (ECM) to electronically
control the throttle plate opening eliminating the need for the following components:
• mechanical link between the throttle plate and accelerator pedal,
• cruise control module, and
• idle air control motor.
Refer to 3.5 Throttle Actuator Control System for details of the TAC System operation and to 3.6 Cruise Control System for details of the cruise control operation.
This feature results in improved driveability, better fuel economy and emission control.
• W ide band heated oxygen sensor provides a more accurate measurement of the oxygen concentration in the
exhaust gas. Refer to 4.14 Heated Oxygen Sensors.
• Dual spray fuel injectors are now used. The use of this spray pattern is used in engines with two intake valves per
cylinder. The dual spray is achieved by having two openings in the spray orifice disc that are arranged in such a
way that two fuel sprays result, being aimed at each intake valve port. Refer to 4.12 Fuel Injectors.
• Pencil Coil – allows the ignition coil to be fitted directly on the spark plug eliminating the need for spark plug wires.
Refer to 4.15 Ignition Coil and Spark Plug.
The engine management system has a self diagnostic capability, as well as connections to enable diagnosis of faults. If
the ECM recognises operational problems it can alert the driver via the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) in the instrument
cluster. The ECM also interfaces with other systems in the vehicle as required.
For further information on the air-conditioning system refer to 2A Heater and Air-conditioning,
For the location of fuses, fusible links and relays, refer to 8A Electrical-Body and Chassis.
1.2 Emission Control
ADR 79/01 Emissions Standards
MY2006 I190 Rodeo has been configured to comply with Australian Design Rule 79/01, that adopts the technical
requirements of the European Council Directive 98/69/EC. Commonly referred to as “Euro 3”, the new legislation
modifies the exhaust emissions, compared to the existing ADR 37/01 (or ‘Euro 2’) vehicle emissions standards.
Australian Design Rule 79/01 implements the 'Euro 3' exhaust and evaporative emissions requirements for petrol fuelled
passenger cars, forward control vehicles and passenger off-road vehicles with a gross vehicle mass (GVM) up to 3.5
tonnes. All new vehicles within these categories and first registered from January 1, 2006 must comply with ADR 79/01.

Engine Management – V6 – General Information Page 6C1-1–12
Battery Voltage Correction Mode
The ECM monitors the battery voltage circuit to ensure the voltage available to the engine management system stays
within the specified range. A low system voltage changes the voltage across the fuel injectors, which affects the fuel
injector flow rate. In addition, a low system voltage fault condition may cause other engine management system
components to malfunction.
The ECM switches to battery voltage correction mode when the ECM detects a low battery voltage fault condition. W hile
in battery voltage correction mode, the ECM performs the following functions to compensate for the low system voltage:
• Increases the injector on-time to maintain the correct amount of fuel being delivered, and
• Increases the idle speed to increase the generator output.
Limp Mode
The programming in the ECM software allows the engine to run in a back-up fuel strategy or limp mode when the ECM
fails to receive signal inputs from critical sensors or when a critical engine management fault condition exists.
The ECM switches to limp mode to enable the vehicle to be driven until service operations can be performed.
Engine Protection Mode
Engine protection mode is engaged to protect engine components from friction damage in the event of an engine over-
temperature condition being detected by the ECM.
W hen the ECM is in engine protection mode, fuel injectors are systematically disabled and re-activated. The injectors
that have been shut down allow the air being drawn into the engine to assist with engine cooling.
Clear Flood Mode
If the engine is flooded with fuel during starting and will not start, the clear flood mode can be manually selected by
depressing the accelerator pedal to wide open throttle (W OT). In this mode, the ECM will completely disable the fuel
injectors, and will maintain this state during engine cranking as long as the ECM detects a W OT condition with engine
speed less than 1,000 rpm.
3.3 Ignition Control System
The electronic ignition system provides a spark to ignite the compressed air / fuel mixture at the correct time. The ECM
maintains correct spark timing and dwell for all engine operating conditions. The ECM calculates the optimum spark
parameters from information received from the various sensors and triggers the appropriate ignition module / coil to fire
the spark plug.
3.4 Starter Motor Operation
The engine control module controls the activation of the start relay in response to inputs from:
• Ignition switch,
• Battery,
• Immobiliser system, and
• Automatic transmission gear selector position / clutch pedal position switch for vehicles with manual transmissions.
3.5 Throttle Actuator Control System
Description
The throttle actuator control (TAC) system is used to improve emissions, fuel economy and driveability. The TAC system
eliminates the mechanical link between the accelerator pedal and the throttle plate and eliminates the need for a cruise
control module and idle air control motor. The TAC system comprises of:

ISUZU KB P190 2007
Engine Management – V6 – General Information Page 6C1-1–17
3.9 Serial Data Communication System
The engine control module (ECM) communicates directly with the following control units using the General Motors local
area network (GM LAN) serial data communication protocol:
• Transmission control module (TCM) (if fitted)
• Powertrain interface module (PIM)
The immobiliser control unit (ICU) communicates directly with the PIM using Keyword 2000 serial data communication
protocol. Refer to 11A Immobiliser for further information
As the GM LAN serial data communication protocol is not compatible with the Keyword 2000 serial data communication
protocol, a powertrain interface module (PIM) is integrated to the serial data communication system to perform the
following tasks (Refer to 6E1 Powertrain Interface Module – V6):
• Translate the GM LAN serial data transmitted by the ECM into a Keyword 2000 serial data that can be received
and recognised by the ICU.
• Translate the cruise control switch, automatic transmission power mode switch and 3
rd start switch signal into a GM
LAN serial data that can be received and recognised by the ECM.
3.10 Self Diagnostics System
The ECM constantly performs self-diagnostic tests on the engine management system. W hen the ECM detects a
malfunction, it also stores a diagnostic trouble code (DTC). A stored DTC will identify the problem area(s) and is
designed to assist the technician in rectifying the fault. In addition, DTCs are classified as either Current or History DTC.
Depending on the type of DTC set, the ECM may turn on the
malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) (1) to warn the driver there
is a fault in the Engine Management System.
Figure 6C1-1 – 12
3.11 Service Programming System
The ECM has an Electronically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) where the software and
calibration information required to operate the engine management system are stored.
The ECM features a service programming system (SPS) to flash program the EEPROM in the ECM with the latest ECM
software to provide optimum performance, driveability and emissions control or to program a new ECM.
Flash programming refers to the SPS used to transfer (or download) ECM data from a computer terminal to the vehicle’s
ECM. The system is designed so the vehicle verification procedures are required to eliminate EEPROM tampering that
could increase engine emission levels.
There are three main flash programming techniques:
1 Direct programming (pass through). This is where the vehicle’s data link connector (DLC) is connected directly to a computer terminal. On screen directions are then followed for downloading.
2 Remote Programming. Reprogramming information is downloaded from a computer terminal to Tech 2. Tech 2 is then connected to the vehicle’s DLC. On screen directions are then followed for downloading.
3 Off-board Programming. The off-board programming method is used when a re-programmable ECM must be programmed while it is removed from the vehicle. For example, an independent repair facility may find it necessary
to replace a faulty ECM. On flash programming equipped vehicles, the replacement ECM must be programmed
with data for the specific vehicle identification number (VIN) or the vehicle may not operate properly.
