INSPECT FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY
Inspect injector resistance.
Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the terminals.
| Resistance |
|---|
| 11.6 to 12.4 Ω at 20°C (68°F) |
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the injector.
Inspect the injection volume.
CAUTION:
This test involves high-pressure fuel and electricity. Take all precautions regarding safe handling of both the fuel and the electricity. Perform this test in a safe area, and avoid any sparks or flames. Do not smoke.
Install the fuel tube connector to SST (hose), then connect the tube connector to the fuel pipe (the vehicle side).
Install the O-ring to the fuel injector.
Connect SST (adaptor and hose) to the injector, and hold the injector and union with SST (clamp).
Put the injector into a graduated cylinder.
CAUTION:
Install a suitable vinyl tube onto the injector to prevent gasoline splashing.
Operate the fuel pump (turn the ignition switch on).
Connect SST (wire) to the injector and the battery for 15 seconds, and measure the injection volume with the graduated cylinder. Test each injector 2 or 3 times.
| Volume |
|---|
| 47 to 58 cm3 (2.87 to 3.54 cu in.) in 15 seconds |
| Difference between each injector |
|---|
| 15 cm3 (0.9 cu in.) or less |
If the injection volume is not as specified, replace the injector.
Check for leakage.
In the condition above, disconnect the tester probes of SST (wire) from the battery and check for fuel leakage from the injector.
| Fuel drop |
|---|
| 1 drop or less in 5 minutes |
