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.
5. Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
6. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (But do not start

the engine).

7. Use Actuator test "item number 9" to drive the fuel pump.

Check that there is no fuel leaking from any section when
the fuel pump is operating.

8. Finish the actuator test or turn the ignition switch to the

LOCK (OFF) position.

9. Start the engine and run at idle.
10.Measure fuel pressure while the engine is running at idle.

Standard value: Approximately 324 kPa (47 psi) at
curb idle

11.Check to see that fuel pressure at idle does not drop even

after the engine has been revved several times.

12.If any of fuel pressure measured in Step 10 to 11 is out of

specification, troubleshoot and repair according to the table
below.

13.Stop the engine and observe fuel pressure gauge reading. It

is normal if the reading does not drop within 2 minutes. If it
does, observe the rate of drop and troubleshoot and repair
according to the table below. Start, then stop the engine.

(1) Squeeze the fuel supply line closed to confirm leak-down

occurs from defective fuel pump check valve.

(2) If pressure continues to drop with both fuel lines

squeezed closed, injector(s) are leaking.

14.Release residual pressure from the fuel pipe line. (Refer to

Fuel Pump Connector Disconnection (How To Reduce
Pressurized Fuel Lines)

P.13B-886

.)

SYMPTOM

PROBABLE CAUSE

REMEDY

• Fuel pressure too low

• Fuel pressure drops after

revving

Clogged fuel filter

Replace fuel filter

Fuel leaking to return side due to
poor fuel regulator valve seating
or settled spring

Replace fuel pressure regulator

Low fuel pump delivery pressure Replace fuel pump

Fuel pressure too high

Binding valve in fuel pressure
regulator

Replace fuel pressure regulator

SYMPTOM

PROBABLE CAUSE

REMEDY

Fuel pressure drops gradually
after engine is stopped

Leaky injector

Replace injector

Leaky fuel regulator valve seat Replace fuel pressure regulator

Fuel pressure drops sharply
immediately after engine is
stopped

Check valve in fuel pump is
held open

Replace fuel pump

WARNING

To prevent a fire, cover the hose connection with
shop towels to prevent splash of fuel that could be
caused by some residual pressure in the fuel pipe
line.

15.Remove the fuel pressure gauge and special tool from the

fuel rail.

16.Fit the fuel high-pressure hose to the fuel rail.
17.Check for fuel leaks.

(1) Use scan tool MB991958 to operate the fuel pump.
(2) Check the fuel line for leaks and repair as needed.

18.Disconnect scan tool MB991958.

Inspect the Injector relay and throttle actuator control motor
relay for continuity in accordance with the chart shown below.

INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR CHECK

M1131002801419

1. Disconnect the mass airflow sensor connectors.
2. Measure resistance between terminals 1 and 4.

Standard value:

13

− 17 kΩ [at -20°C (-4°F)]

5.3

− 6.7 kΩ [at 0°C (32°F)]

2.3

− 3.0 kΩ [at 20°C (68°F)]

1.0

− 1.5 kΩ [at 40°C (104°F)]

0.56

− 0.76 kΩ [at 60°C (140°F)]

0.30

− 0.45 kΩ [at 80°C (176°F)]

3. If not within specifications, replace the mass airflow sensor.

4. Measure resistance while heating the sensor using a hair

dryer.

Normal condition:

5. If resistance does not decrease as heat increases, replace

the mass airflow sensor.
