FUEL INJECTOR
Component DescriptionINFOID:0000000001327051
The fuel injector is a small, precise solenoid valve. When the ECM
supplies a ground to the fuel injector ci
rcuit, the coil in the fuel injec-
tor is energized. The energized coil pulls the ball valve back and
allows fuel to flow through the fuel injector into the intake manifold.
The amount of fuel injected depends upon the injection pulse dura-
tion. Pulse duration is the length of time the fuel injector remains
open. The ECM controls the injection pulse duration based on
engine fuel needs.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
*: The ECM determines the start signal status by the signals of engine speed and battery voltage.
When the engine is running at low or medium speed, the power valve isfully closed. Under this condition, the
effective suction port length is equivalentto the total lengt h of the intake manifold collector's suction port includ-
ingthe intake valve. This long suction port provides incr eased air intake whichresults in improved suction effi-
ciency and higher torque generation.
The surge tank and one-way valve are provided. When engine is runningat high speed, the ECM sends the
signal to the VIAS control solenoid valve.This signal introduces the intake manifold vacuum into the power
valve actuatorand therefore opens the power valve to two suction passages together in thecollector.
Under this condition, the effective port length is equi valent to thelength of the suction port provided indepen-
dently for each cylinder. Thisshortened port length results in enhanced engine output with reduced suctionre-
sistance under high speeds.
The power valve is always open regardless of the engine speed when gear position is in N or P.

29. Use a scraper to remove all traces of liquid gasket from water
pump cover, chain tensioner cover and intake valve timing con-
trol covers.
INSTALLATION
1. Install timing chain and related parts. Refer to EM-64, "Component".
2. Hammer dowel pins (right and left) into front timing chain case up to a point close to taper in order to shorten protrusion length.
3. Install front oil seal on front timing chain case. Apply new engine oil to the oil seal lip and dust seal lip.
Install it so that each seal lip is oriented as shown in the figure.
Using a suitable drift [outer diameter: 60 mm (2.36 in)], press-fit oil seal until it becomes flush with front timing chain case
end face.
Make sure the garter spring is in position and seal lip is not inverted.
4. Install water pump cover and chain tensioner cover to front timing chain case.

d. Assemble front timing chain case as follows:
i. Fit lower end of front timing chain case tightly onto top face of oil pan (upper). From the fitting point, make entire front timing chain
case contact rear timing chain case completely.
CAUTION:
Be careful that oil pan gasket is in place.
ii. Since front timing chain case is offset for difference of bolt holes, tighten bolts temporarily with holding front timing chain case
from front and top as shown in the figure.
For bolt length and positions, refer to the step e.
iii. Same as the step ii, insert dowel pin with holding front timing chain case from front and top completely.
