PRESSURE CHECK
Caution
Two persons should be in the vehicle when the test is
conducted; the person in the passenger seat should read
the indications shown by the pressure meter.
1. Disconnect the hose (black) from the turbocharger waste
gate solenoid valve, and connect the pressure gauge
to the hose. Plug the nipple of the solenoid valve from
which the hose (black) has been disconnected.
2. Drive at full-throttle acceleration in second gear and then
measure the supercharging pressure when the engine
speed in about 3,000 r/min.
Standard value: 59 – 84 kPa
3. If the supercharging pressure deviates from the standard
value, check the following items for possible cause.

WASTE GATE ACTUATOR CHECK
1. Connect a manual pump (pressure-application type) to
nipple.
2. While gradually applying pressure, check the pressure that
begins to activate (approximately 1 mm stroke) the waste
gate actuator rod.
Standard value: Approximately 100 kPa
Caution
In order to avoid damage to the diaphragm, do not
apply a pressure of 117 kPa or higher.

SECONDARY AIR CONTROL SYSTEM CHECK
1. Start the engine and carry out idling.
2. Confirm that the secondary air valve lifts up when the
engine-ECU connector No. 53 terminal is short-circuited
with the earth using a jumper wire.
The engine-ECU connector must be connected at this
time.

OPERATION CHECK
1. Disconnect the vacuum hose (white-striped, yellow-

2. Separate the harness connector.
3. Connect the hand vacuum pump to the solenoid valve’s

4. Connect the solenoid valve terminal and battery terminal
with a jumper wire.
5. Disconnect the jumper wire between the battery’s ( - )
terminals, apply a negative pressure, and inspect the
tightness.

"AAFUEL HIGH-PRESSURE HOSE CONNECTION
1. Apply a drop of new engine oil to the O-ring.
Caution
Be sure not to let engine oil enter the delivery pipe.
2. While turning the injector, high-pressure fuel hose and
fuel pressure regulator to the right and left, install the
delivery pipe, while being careful not to damage the O-ring.
After installing, check that the hose turns smoothly.
3. If it does not turn smoothly, the O-ring may be trapped,
remove the injector, high-pressure fuel hose or fuel
pressure regulator and then re-insert it into the delivery
pipe and check once again.
4. Tighten the high-pressure fuel hose to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 5.0±1.0 N⋅m
INSPECTION
Check the following points; replace the part if a problem is
found.
INTAKE MANIFOLD CHECK
1. Check for damage or cracking of any part.
2. Check for obstruction of the negative pressure (vacuum)
outlet port, and for obstruction of the water passage or
gas passage.
3. Using a straight edge and thickness gauge, check for
distortion of the cylinder head installation surface.

This test determines whether the wiring from the
alternator “B” terminal to the battery (+) terminal
(including the fusible line) is in a good condition
or not.
(1) Always be sure to check the following before
the test.
DAlternator installation
DAlternator drive belt tension
(Refer to GROUP 11 - On-vehicle Service.)
DFusible link
DAbnormal noise from the alternator while
the engine is running
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” (OFF)
position.
(3) Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(4) Disconnect the alternator output wire from the
alternator “B” terminal and connect a DC test
ammeter with a range of 0 - 100 A in seriesbetween the “B” terminal and the disconnected
output wire. (Connect the (+) lead of the
ammeter to the “B” terminal, and then connect
the ( - ) lead of the ammeter to the disconnected
output wire.)
NOTE
An inductive-type ammeter which enables
measurements to be taken without
disconnecting the alternator output wire should
be recommended. Using this equipment will
lessen the possibility of a voltage drop caused
by a loose “B” terminal connection.
(5) Connect a digital-type voltmeter between the
alternator “B” terminal and the battery (+)
terminal. (Connect the (+) lead of the voltmeter
to the “B” terminal and the connect the ( - ) lead
of the voltmeter to the battery (+) cable.)
