MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <3.8L ENGINE>

13B-1017

STEP 7. Check the fuel pressure.

Refer to On-vehicle Service

− Fuel Pressure Test

P.13B-1133

.

Q: Is the fuel pressure normal?

YES : Check the following items, and repair or replace the

defective items.

a. Check the ignition coil and spark plugs.
b. Check the EGR system.

c. Check compression pressure.

d. Check the fuel filter or fuel line for clogging.

Then confirm that the malfunction symptom is

eliminated.

NO : Repair or replace it. Then confirm that the malfunction

symptom is eliminated.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 16: Acceleration shock.

.

COMMENT

• There may be an ignition leak accompanying the

increase in the spark plug demand voltage during
acceleration or the electronic control throttle
valve system failed.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this case:)

• Malfunction of the ignition system.

• Malfunction of the electronic control throttle valve

system.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <3.8L ENGINE>

13B-1018

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Read the DTC.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is The DTC set?

YES : Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart

P.13B-33

.

NO : Check the following items, and repair or replace the

defective items.

a. Check the ignition coil and spark plugs.
b. Check for occurrence of ignition leak.

Then confirm that the malfunction symptom is

eliminated.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 17: Deceleration Shock

.

COMMENT

• There may be a sudden change in air flow

through the throttle valve, causing the vehicle to
decelerate rapidly for an instant.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this case:)

• Malfunction of the electronic control throttle valve

system.

• Dirtiness around throttle valve.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

Valve Area) Cleaning

P.13B-1133

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 18: Poor acceleration.

.

COMMENT

• Defective ignition system, abnormal air/fuel ratio,

the electronic control throttle valve system, poor
compression pressure, etc. are suspected.

.
