(c) Pressurize the EVAP system by 3.2 to 3.7 kPa (24 to 28
mmHg).
(d) Apply soapy water to the piping and the connecting parts
of the EVAP system.

(a) Replace the charcoal canister assembly (See page EC-
8).
NOTICE:
When replacing the canister, check the canister
pump module interior and related pipes for water,
fuel and other liquids. If liquids are present, check
for disconnections and/or cracks in the following: 1)
the pipe from the air inlet port to the canister pump
module; 2) the canister filter; 3) the fuel tank vent
hose.

BASIC INSPECTION
When a malfunction is not confirmed by the DTC check,
troubleshooting should be carried out in all circuits
considered to be possible causes of the problem. In many
cases, by carrying out the basic engine check shown in the
following flowchart, the location of the problem can be found
quickly and efficiently. Therefore, using this check is essential
when engine troubleshooting.
NOTICE:
Carry out this check with the engine stopped and ignition
switch off.

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT
(a) Inspect the engine coolant (See page CO-1).
2. INSPECT ENGINE OIL
(a) Inspect the engine oil (See page LU-1).
3. INSPECT BATTERY
(a) Inspect the battery (See page CH-5).
4. INSPECT AIR CLEANER FILTER ELEMENT SUB-
ASSEMBLY
(a) Remove the air cleaner filter element sub-assembly.
(b) Visually check that there is no dirt, blockage, and/or
damage to the air cleaner filter element.
HINT:
• If there is any dirt or a blockage in the air cleaner
filter element, clean it with compressed air.
• If any dirt or a blockage remains even after
cleaning the air cleaner filter element with
compressed air, replace it.
5. INSPECT SPARK PLUG
(a) Inspect the spark plugs (See page IG-5).
6. INSPECT VALVE LASH ADJUSTER NOISE
(a) Rev up the engine several times. Check that the
engine does not emit unusual noises.
If unusual noises occur, warm up the engine and
idle it for over 30 minutes. Then repeat this
procedure.
HINT:
If any defects or problems are found during the
inspection above, perform lash adjuster inspection
(See page EM-100).
7. INSPECT IGNITION TIMING
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) When using the intelligent tester:
Check the ignition timing.
(1) Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
(2) Enter DATA LIST mode with the intelligent
tester.
Ignition timing:
8 to 12
BTDC at idle
HINT:
Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual
for help when selecting the DATA LIST.

(h) Install the 6 ignition coils.
Torque: 10 N*m (102 kgf*cm, 7 ft.*lbf)
(i) Install the intake air surge tank (See page ES-522).
10. INSPECT CO/HC
(a) Start the engine.
(b) Run the engine at 2500 rpm for approximately 180
seconds.
(c) Insert the CO/HC meter testing probe at least 40 cm
(1.3 ft.) into the tailpipe during idling.
(d) Check CO/HC concentration at idle and/or 2500
rpm.
HINT:
Check regulations and restrictions in your area
when performing 2 mode CO/HC concentration
testing (engine check at both idle speed and at 2500
rpm).
If the CO/HC concentration does not comply with
regulations, perform troubleshooting in the order
given below.
(1) Check air fuel ratio sensor and heated oxygen
sensor operation.
(2) See the table below for possible causes, and
then inspect and repair.
CO HC Problems Causes
Normal High Rough idle1. Faulty ignitions:
– Incorrect timing
– Fouled, shorted or improperly gapped plugs
2. Incorrect valve clearance
3. Leaks in intake and exhaust valves
4. Leaks in cylinders
Low HighRough idle
(fluctuating HC reading)1. Vacuum leaks:
– PCV hoses
– Intake manifold
– Throttle body
– Brake booster line
2. Lean mixture causing misfire
High HighRough idle
(black smoke from exhaust)1. Restricted air filter
2. Plugged PCV valve
3. Faulty SFI system:
– Faulty fuel pressure regulator
– Defective ECT sensor
– Defective MAF meter
–Faulty ECM
– Faulty injectors
– Faulty throttle position sensor
