Engine control system·- EFI systemInspection1. VVT control solenoid valve assembly (4G18-1006200)(a) Resistance inspection
(1) Measure the resistance between terminals with ohmmeter
Resistance: (b) Operation inspection
Connect battery positive (+) wire to No.1 terminal and negative (-) wire to No. 2 terminal, and check
valve operation.
Note: ensure that the valve is not stuck.
Hint: if there are foreign matters in the valve, the valve could not be closed tightly and will
thus result in slight pressure being lifted toward higher direction.2. Throttle body components (4G18-1001240)(a) Inspection of throttle body
(1) Throttle valve shaft should not swing.
(2) All channels should not be blocked.
(3) Throttle valve plate should rotate flexibly and act smoothly.
(4) When the throttle is at closed position, there should be no clearance between throttle stop bolts and
throttle lever.
Note: it is not allowed to adjust the throttle stop bolts.3. Throttle position sensor (4G18-3600080)(a) Resistance inspection
(1) Remove the wiring harness connectors of throttle posi-
tion sensor.
(2) Measure the resistance between 1# pin and 2# pin with
ohmmeter, resistance value: .
(3) Connect 2 terminals respectively to 1# pin and 3# pin,
and turn the throttle, the resistance value varies linearly
with the opening of throttle, but 2# pin and 3# pin are
contrary to this.
Note:pay attention whether there is great jump with
resistance value when observing resistance change. 9

(see Page 14)
2. Remove rear seat cushion assembly
3. Remove rear floor repairing hole cover
4. Remove No. 2 fuel evaporation assembly
5. Remove fuel tank main fuel hose and oil return pipe
assembly
6. Remove fuel pump assembly
7. Discharge fuel
8. Remove front floor bracket
9. Remove front exhaust pipe assembly(a) Move away carpet and remove oxygen sensor joint.
(b) Remove front exhaust pipe assembly10.Disassemble the vent pipe of fuel hose
11.Disassemble filler pipe from fuel tank
12.Remove No. 2 fuel evaporator hose assemblyPress fuel hose joint and then pull out the hose.
Notes:Check there is contaminant that looked like dirt around the
joint before operating and clean it off in the case of
contaminant.Be careful of the contaminant that looked like dirt, because
fast-joint depends on o-ring to seal fuel pipe and joint.Do not perform this operation with tools.Do not bend or distort nylon hose.Cover the joint with plastic bag after removing the fuel hose.When the joint is stuck with fuel pipe, clip the hose with
fingers and rotate carefully to release the hose, and then
remove it.13.Disassemble fuel tank main fuel hose assemblyClip the protrusion part of fixing ring and move lock claw toward
open direction, and then pull out the hose as shown in the
diagram.
Notes:Check there is contaminant looked like dirt around the joint
before operating and clean it off in the case of contaminant. 21 Removing, installing and disassembling, assemblingFuel pipe clipNylon pipeO-ring

Engine mechanism - Valve clearance(4) Turn crankshaft clockwise, and check the sliding
parts are blocked by plunger.
Hint: if the plunger does not eject, press the chain ten-
sion rail toward chain tensioner with screwdriver
or fingers to separate the hook from lock pin and
make the plunger eject.11.Install cylinder head cover components.(a) Install cylinder head cover gasket on cylinder head cover.
(b) Eliminate all old sealant (FIPG) materials.

Engine mechanism - Camshaft(4) Ensure whether the timing sprocket of VVT driver
will turn toward timing advance direction in de-
creasing the pressure of timing delay oil duct.
(5) When camshaft timing sprocket turns at max.
timing advance position, release the air pressure
in timing delay side oil duct, and then release the
air in timing advance side oil duct.
Hint: camshaft timing sprocket will turn only af-
ter the lock pin is released.
(d) Check the fixing state of max. delay position.
Ensure camshaft timing sprocket assembly is fixed at
max. delay position.11. Remove VVT driver assembly.(a) Clip the camshaft with a jaw vice, and ensure VVT driver
is locked tightly.
Warning: be careful not to damage camshaft.
(b) As shown in the diagram, seal 5 oil ducts of camshaft
journal with vinyl rubber cloth.
Hint: there are 2 advance side oil ducts in the
groove of camshaft, and clog one of them
with rubber block.
(c) In opposite side of the groove, respectively prick a hole
on vinyl rubber cloth of advance side oil duct surface
and delay side oil duct surface.
(d) Send in 2 oil ducts (advance side oil duct and delay
side oil duct) with the surface rubber cloth pricked
under the pressure of 150Kpa.
Warning:cover the oil ducts with cloth to avoid
oil injecting out in pushing.
(e) Ensure whether the timing sprocket of VVT driver will
turn toward timing advance direction in decreasing the
pressure of timing delay oil duct.
Hint: camshaft timing sprocket will turn toward
advance direction only after the lock pin is
released.
(f) When camshaft timing sprocket turns at max. timing
advance position, release the air pressure in timing
delay side oil duct, and then release the air in timing
advance side oil duct. Warning: if the air pressure in timing advance side oil duct is released earlier than that
in timing delay side oil duct, VVT driver assembly will move suddenly toward
delay side, and the lock pin will be damaged.
(c) Check rotating is smooth.
Besides max. delay position, turn VVT driver assembly within rotating rang and check rotating is
smooth.
Warning: Perform inspection with hands but not with
compressed air.55Delay side
