surface of the O-ring at the upside of the injector where it connects with the fuel distributing

pipe. Be careful not to let engine oil contaminate inside of the injector and the nozzle.

l Place the injector in its bracket vertically along injector bracket, then fix it to the bracket with

retaining clips. Note:

By location mode, the remaining clips for injector fall into axial location remaining clip and

jector, make sure that the bayonet at middle of the

remaining clip is completely locked into the groove of the injector and the grooves at both sides

of the remaining clip are completely locked into the outskirt flanging of the injector seat.

When instal

ling an injector that both axial and radial locations are required, use an axial and

radial location remaining clip and place the locating piece of the injector and the locating pin of

the injector seat respectively into the corresponding grooves on the location remaining clip.

If the injector has two grooves, be careful not to place by mistake, refer to the installation site

l Installation of injector should be done by hand and knocking the injector with such tools as

hammer etc. is prohibited.

l When disassemble/reassemble the fuel injector, the O ring must be replaced. And pay attention

to not damage the sealing surface of the injector.

Suggestion: regularly wash and analyze the injector using a special washer analyzer for injector.

10. Ignition Coil

10.1 Function of ignition coil:

Primary and secondary circuits are integrated inside the ignition coil; when ECU controls

on-off of current in the primary coil, a high voltage as high as thousands volts will be generated in

the secondary coil, which will then generate spark through ignition cable and spark plug to ignite the

mixed air in the cylinder.

10.2 Working principle

Ignition coil ZS - K2

×

2 consists of two primary windings, two secondary windings, mandrel, and

casing. When one of the primary windings grounding channel is connected, the primary winding is

in charging. Once the primary winding circuit is cut off by ECU, the charging will be stopped. At the

same time, the high voltage is sensed in the secondary winding and making the spark plug

discharging. There is a different with the distributor ignition coil: for the ignition coil ZS - K2

×

2,

there is one spark plug on both side of the secondary winding, so the both spark plugs can ignite at

the same time. These two primary windings power on/off alternatively, correspondently, these two

secondary windings discharge alternatively.

11. Spark Plug

The operating conditions of spark plug is extremely inclement, it is exposed to high pressure,

high temperature and impact as well as strong corrosion from combustion product; therefore, it is a

wearing part.

11.1 Outline drawing

11.2 Thermal performance

The spark plug must maintain a proper temperature to keep good working order. Practically,

when insulator skirt of the spark plug maintains a temperature of 500-700

, the oil drop that falls

℃

on the insulator can be burnt away immediately without carbon deposit formed. This temperature

is called “self cleaning temperature of spark plug”. With a temperature below this scope, the spark

plug is liable to carbon deposit and electric leakage, thus causing ignition failure; with a temperature

above this scope, when the mixed air is contacting with the red-hot insulator, pre-ignition may occur

to produce knock, even it may burn in intake stroke and cause backfire.

11.3 Potential failures due to fall of ignition performance of spark plug

Starting difficulties, unsteady speed, chatter of engine, black smoke out of exhaust pipe, high

fuel consumption and poor power.

11.4 Judge if the vehicle status matches with the spark plug type through color of spark plug

Yellow, brown yellow normal indicates that the combustion status of mixed air is normal

Black with carbon deposit carbon deposit check if the spark plug type matches and then

replace with the spark plug with lower heat value (slow heat radiation).

Black with blot soot clean if the injector nozzle is dirty

Dilute if the mixture ratio of oil gas is too big.

Check ignition coil etc. if the high voltage is poor.

Black with oil stain combustion of engine oil check sealing status of the seal ring and if

Mono-pole

Triple-pole

Covered with rivet

Covered with rivet

scratch is present on the cylinder wall.

Pearl overheating check if the spark plug type matches, and then replace with the spark plug

with lower heat value (rapid heat radiation).

11.6 Regular replacement and use overdue

The spark plug is the low-value consumption goods. Though cheaper compared with other

matching parts, its ignition performance directly affects the performance of the engine. Therefore, it

needs regular replacement. For the spark plug used in our vehicles, we suggest that you should

replace the spark plug at the following mileages: 10,000-15,000 km (single electrode);

15,000-25,000 km (multi electrode).

Ignition performance fall of spark plug will make fuel consumption rise and power drop off.

The economic loss caused by excessive fuel consumption unconsciously will even afford to

hundreds of new spark plugs. Use overdue makes the working condition of the engine poor in long

term and brings some damage to the engine.

11.7 Inspection and maintenance of the spark plug

The inspection items for spark plug mainly include carbon deposit, electrode burn through, gap,

and sealing and spark jump performances of the spark plug etc.

The electrode gap of the spark plug should be 0.7-0.9mm. Too small electrode gap will reduce

the breakdown voltage and weaken the spark intensity; while too big electrode gap will increase the

voltage required by the spark plug and cause spark out, especially when the ignition coil is aging and

the ignition system is in poor maintenance, spark out is more liable to occur.

Common failures of spark plug: fall in sealing performance, air leak and soot at the air leakage

position. The above failures can be inspected and judged through sealing performance test and spark

jump test. Both sealing performance test and spark jump test can be conducted on a spark plug

cleaning tester.

It is unscientific that some drivers and maintenance professionals remove the spark plug from

the engine, place it on the cylinder head and inspect if it is in sound conditions using high voltage of

the vehicle. In this test, the spark plug electrode is under an atmosphere other than a gas pressure of

over 800KPa, its working pressure. Therefore, spark jump of a spark plug under an atmosphere

does not indicate that it will also reliably produce spark jump under a high pressure conditions in the

cylinder.

It is required that carbon deposit disposal and proper adjustment of spark plug gap should be

done after a mileage of 10,000-15,000 km in its lifetime. When the temperature in cylinder rises, the

electrode gap should be increased properly. That is, increase the electrode gap in summer while

reduce it in winter. If the mixed air is strong, the electrode gap should be increased; otherwise,

decreased. In plain region, the electrode gap should be decreased while in plateau region, increased.

12. Carbon Canister Solenoid Valve Control

12.1 Function:

Carbon canister solenoid valve is a device used to enable the fuel steam in fuel tank to enter

cylinder to combust through control of ECU. Through controlling duty cycle of a solenoid valve,

ECU can accomplish open and close of the solenoid valve.

12.2 Working principle:

The canister control valve is composed of solenoid, armature iron and valve etc. There is a filter

net at the inlet. The airflow through the canister control valve at one hand depends on the duty cycle

of the electric pulse output of canister control valve by ECU, and at another hand depends on the
