4.8 Fuel Filler Cap
The fuel filler cap is a 'screw on' type, with an integrated tightening torque limiting mechanism. W hen installing the fuel
filler cap, tighten it until a ratcheting (clicking) sound is audible, indicating the fuel filler cap is properly tightened. Th e fuel
filler cap is tethered to the fuel filler pocket.
Remove
The fuel filler cap requires a quarter of a turn anticlockwise to be removed.
Vacuum and pressure valves are built into the fuel filler cap
which regulate the pressure in the fuel tank and prevent fuel
tank and system damage.
Inspection
Inspect the fuel filler cap and seal for any signs of damage.
Replace the fuel filler cap if found to be defective.
1 Pressure Valve
2 Vacuum Valve
3 Seal Ring
A replacement fuel filler cap must be the
same type as the original. The fuel filler cap
pressure and vacuum valves are specific to a
particular application and must be replaced
with the same type or fuel system damage
may occur.
Figure 6C – 36
If the fuel filler cap needs replacing, use only
a 'screw on' fuel tank filler cap with an
integrated tightening torque limiting
mechanism. Failure to use the correct fuel
tank filler cap can result in a serious
malfunction of the emission control or fuel
system.
1 Untwist and remove the fuel filler cap (2) from the fuel filler neck opening.
2 Cover the fuel filler opening with a suitable material to prevent foreign objects from entering the fuel tank.
3 To remove the fuel filler cap tether line use a flat- bladed screwdriver to prise the tether line fastener (2)
from it’s mounting hole.
NOTE
Check the fuel filler cap for serviceability and
replace if required.

3.2 Air / Fuel Control System
The engine control module (ECM) controls the amount of air and fuel delivered into each of the engine cylinders. Based
on the various ECM inputs, the ECM switches to the following air / fuel control system mode to provide the optimum air /
fuel ratio under all engine operating conditions.
Starting Mode
W hen the ignition switch is moved to the START position and the engine begins to turn, a prime pulse may be injected to
speed starting. As soon as the ECM receives an input signal from the camshaft position (CMP) and crankshaft position
(CKP) sensor and determines which cylinder is in the firing stroke, the ECM applies a pulse width modulated (PW M)
ground to the injector control circuit. The ECM monitors mass air flow, intake air temperature, engine coolant
temperature, and throttle position to determine the required fuel injector on-time required for starting the engine.
Run Mode
The engine switches to run mode when the engine speed reaches 480 rpm after being started. The run mode has two
sub-modes called Open Loop and Closed Loop.
Open Loop Mode
The heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) does not produce a usable signal voltage output until it reaches operating
temperature. Therefore, while the HO2S is below its operating temperature, the ECM switches to open loop mode.
In open loop, the ECM ignores the signals from the HO2S and calculates the required injector pulse width based
primarily on inputs from the mass air flow (MAF), intake air temperature (IAT), and engine coolant temperature sensors.
The system will stay in the open loop mode until the HO2S produce a usable output.
Closed Loop Mode
Once the HO2S reaches operating temperature and starts producing its own signal voltage output, the ECM switches to
the closed loop mode.
In closed loop mode, the ECM initially calculates injector pulse width based on the same sensors used in open loop, and
additionally the ECM uses the oxygen sensor signals to modify and fine tune the fuel pulse width calculations to precisely
maintain the ideal 14.7 to 1 air / fuel ratio.
Acceleration Mode
The ECM monitors and calculates input signals from the accelerator pedal position (APP) and MAF sensor signals to
determine when the vehicle is being accelerated. If the ECM detects the accelerator pedal is depressed and there is a
demand for the vehicle to accelerate, the ECM switches to acceleration mode. In acceleration mode, the ECM increases
the fuel injector on-time to provide more fuel accordingly.
Deceleration Mode
The ECM monitors and calculates input signals from the APP and MAF sensor signals to determine when the vehicle is
being decelerated. If the ECM detects the vehicle is decelerating, the ECM switches to deceleration mode. In
deceleration mode, the ECM decreases the fuel injector on-time, or disables the fuel injectors for short periods, to reduce
exhaust emissions and improve fuel economy.
Fuel Shut-off Mode
To protect the engine from damage or to improve the vehicle's driveability, the ECM switches to the fuel shut-off mode. In
fuel shut-off mode, the ECM performs the following:
• The ECM disables the six fuel injectors under the following conditions:
− Ignition off – to prevent engine dieseling,
− Ignition on but no ignition reference signal – prevents flooding or backfiring,
− At high engine speed – greater than the red line (rev limiter),
− At high vehicle speed – greater than the rated tire speed (vehicle speed limiter), or
− Extended high speed closed throttle coast-down – reduces engine emissions and increases engine braking.
• The ECM selectively disables the appropriate number of fuel injectors when torque management has been enabled.

Throttle Body Relearn Procedure
The ECM stores values that include the lowest possible TP sensor positions (zero percent), the rest positions (seven
percent), and the spring return rate. These values will only be erased or overwritten if the ECM is reprogrammed or if a
throttle body relearn procedure is performed.
NOTE
If the battery has been disconnected, the ECM
performs a throttle body relearn procedure once
the battery has been reconnected and the ignition
turned on.
The ECM performs a throttle body relearn procedure anytime the ignition is turned on and the following conditions have
been met:
• The engine has been off for greater than 29 seconds,
• The engine speed is less than 40 rpm,
• The vehicle speed is 0 km/h,
• The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is 5 – 60°C; if Tech 2 is used to perform the relearn procedure, the ECT is
5 – 100°C,
• The intake air temperature (IAT) is greater than 5 – 60°C; if Tech 2 is used to perform the relearn procedure, the
IAT is 5 – 100°C,
• The APP sensor angle is less than 15 percent, and
• Ignition voltage is greater than 10 V.
The throttle body relearn procedure is performed 29 seconds after the ignition is turned on. The ECM commands the
throttle plate from the rest position (seven percent open) to full closed (zero percent), then to around 10 percent open.
This procedure takes about six – eight seconds. If any faults occur in the TAC system, a DTC sets. At the start of this
procedure, the Tech 2 TAC Learn Counter parameter should display 0, then count up to 11 after the procedure is
completed. If the counter did not start at 0, or if the counter did not end at 11, a fault has occurred and a DTC should set.
TAC System Default Actions / Reduce Power Modes
The ECM switches to the following reduce power modes if the ECM detects a fault condition in the TAC system:
• If an APP sensor circuit fault or TP sensor circuit fault is detected, the ECM limits engine torque so the vehicle
cannot reach speeds of greater than 100 km/h. The ECM remains in this reduce power mode during the entire
ignition cycle, even if the fault is corrected.
• If there is a fault condition with the throttle actuator control circuits, a throttle actuator command vs. actual position
fault, a return spring check fault, or a TP sensor one circuit fault, the ECM limits engine speed to 2500 rpm and
three – six fuel injectors are randomly disabled. At this time the reduce power indicator is commanded on. The
ECM remains in the reduce power mode during the entire ignition cycle even if the fault is corrected.
NOTE
If a TP sensor one or throttle actuator control
circuit fault is present at the time the vehicle is at
idle, with no accelerator pedal angle, the engine
may stall.
Forced Engine Shutdown
A further safety feature which is built into the TAC system is the ECM will initiate an engine shut down if, the ECM’s
internal monitoring functions detects a serious internal fault, the fuel injectors will be turned off.
3.6 Cruise Control System
The cruise control system integrates with the engine control module (ECM) through the powertrain interface module
(PIM), to control the electronic throttle actuator and maintain the vehicle at the speed set by the driver.
