INSPECT FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY
Measure the resistance of the fuel injector assembly.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Standard Resistance | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the fuel injector assembly.
Inspect the injection volume.
CAUTION:
This test involves high-pressure fuel and electricity. Take all precautions regarding safe handling of both fuel and electricity. Perform this test in a safe area, and avoid any sparks or flames. Do not smoke.
Remove the fuel pipe clamp.
Disconnect the fuel tube.
Connect SST to the fuel pipe (the vehicle side).
Install the O-ring to the fuel injector assembly.
Install SST and tube to the fuel fuel injector assembly.
Put the fuel injector assembly into a graduated cylinder.
CAUTION:
Install a strong rubber tube onto the fuel injector assembly to prevent gasoline from splashing.
Operate the fuel pump (turn the engine switch on (IG)).
Connect SST (wire) to the fuel injector assembly and the battery for 15 seconds, and measure the injection volume with the graduated cylinder. Test each fuel injector assembly 2 or 3 times.
| Standard injection volume |
|---|
| 72.3 to 75.2 cm3 (4.4 to 4.6 cu in.) per 15 seconds |
| Difference between each fuel injector assembly: 18 cm3 (1.1 cu in.) or less |
If the injection volume is not as specified, replace the fuel injector assembly.
Check for leaks.
In the condition above, disconnect the tester probes of SST (wire) from the battery and check for fuel leakage from the fuel injector assembly.
| Standard fuel drop |
|---|
| 1 drop or less in 24 minutes |
