      Symptom: Main fault

      • Lack of power (No black smoke): air filter blockage, air duct is crushed/leaking

      • Black smoke (No lack of power): Leakage between the turbo and intake manifold
      Data List

      • MAP (inside intake air pressure)

      • Target Booster Pressure

        When the accelerator is fully depressed, if MAP is 20 kPa lower than Target Booster Pressure for more than 5 seconds then a lack of power will be felt.

  2. Data List Related to Starting Trouble

    Note

    The Data List values in the table are the results of checking one vehicle under a specific condition (engine coolant temperature, intake air temperature, atmospheric pressure etc.). Therefore, use these values for reference only.


    1. Engine Control

      MAP
      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      MAP

      • When MAP is low, there will be difficulty starting.

      • With ignition switch ON or during idling, MAP is nearly equal to Atmosphere Pressure (standard atmospheric pressure = 101 kPa).

      When MAP is low, the following conditions are possible:


      • Diesel throttle nearly fully closed.

      • Intake system blocked (turbocharger system also).

      • Exhaust system blocked.

      • When the ignition switch is ON or the vehicle is idling, MAP (intake manifold absolute pressure) and Atmosphere Pressure are approximately equal (standard atmospheric pressure = 101 kPa).

        Above approx. 1500 rpm, the turbo becomes effective, and the pressure becomes higher than atmospheric pressure.

      • Inspect while comparing with "Target Booster Pressure".

      • With the accelerator fully open, if the actual Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) is low compared to the target booster pressure by at least 20 kPa for 5 seconds or more, a feeling of insufficient power will occur.

      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      Intake Air - Intake air temperature sensor.

      • After a long soak, the engine coolant temperature, intake air temperature and ambient air temperature are approximately equal.

      • If the value is -40°C (-40°F) or 140°C (284°F), the sensor circuit is open or shorted.
      Coolant Temp
      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      Coolant Temp

      • Engine coolant temperature is approximately equal to intake air temperature after leaving overnight. After warm-up: Engine coolant temperature is 70°C (158°F) or more.

      • In cases when the engine coolant temperature output is obviously higher than the actual engine coolant temperature, when it is cold, there will be difficulty starting due to problems with glow plugs or insufficient fuel injection.

      • In cases when the engine coolant temperature sensor output is obviously lower than the actual engine coolant temperature, when it is warm, there will be difficulty starting (black smoke will also occur) due to an excess of injected fuel.

      		 Engine coolant temperature sensor

      • If the value is -40°C (-40°F) or 140°C (284°F), the sensor circuit is open or shorted.

      Engine Speed of Cyl #1 (to #4)
      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      Engine Speed of Cyl #1 (to #4)

      When cranking, the engine speed of each cylinder is the same under normal conditions. When a cylinder is approximately 100 rpm higher than the other cylinders, it is conceivable that the compression of that cylinder is being lost.

      Tech Tips

      This data is output only when the Active Test "Check the Cylinder Compression" is performed.

      		 -

      • Output only when the Active Test "Check the Cylinder Compression" is performed.

      • With this Active Test, the fuel injection is stopped.

      • Indicates the speed of each cylinder when cranking.

        Example - Normal: "Engine speed" of all cylinders is approximately equal.

    2. Diesel Injection

      Target Common Rail Pressure
      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      Target Common Rail Pressure - -

      • Inspect the (actual) fuel pressure, comparing it against the common rail target value.

      • Considered normal when the actual fuel pressure is within +/-5000 kPa of the target fuel pressure under stable conditions.

      Results of real-vehicle check:

      Fuel Press
      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      Fuel Press

      • In a stable operating condition (e.g. idling), Fuel Press is Target Common Rail Pressure +/-5000 kPa.

      • During cranking, if Fuel Press is lower than 25000 kPa, there may be difficulty starting (take care as there is a response lag when the pressure rises).

      • When Fuel Press is lower than 25000 kPa, rough idling will occur.

      • If there is a fault with the fuel supply pump (lack of discharge quantity) or pressure discharge valve (will not fully close), the fuel pressure will drop. Also, a blocked fuel filter, leakage from fuel pipes, and lack of fuel will also make the fuel pressure drop.

      • If air mixes with the fuel, the fuel pressure will shift away from the target fuel pressure.

      • When there is a fault with the fuel supply pump, there is a possibility of lack of power, engine stall, rough idle and difficulty starting.

      • Fuel press is the actual common rail fuel pressure.

      • Inspect by comparing Fuel Press with Target Common Rail Pressure.

      • The ECM uses Fuel Press for feedback control of Target Fuel Pressure via the supply pump.

        The injection amount is determined based on the injection timing and fuel pressure.

        Also, the spray pattern is selected based on the fuel pressure.

      Results of real-vehicle check:


      • Ignition switch ON: 0 kPa

      • Cranking: 35390 kPa

      • Idling (warm up the engine): 33640 kPa (2 minutes after starting the vehicle)

      • Running without load (2500 rpm): 62920 kPa

      • Driving with the accelerator fully open at 3000 rpm: 178670 kPa
      Target Pump SCV Current
      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      Target Pump SCV Current Idling after warming up: roughly 923 to 1123 mA. When this value is large, the pump is trying to increase the fuel discharge rate.

      • With this data, component fault not specified, use this data as a reference.

      • If the current is 3000 mA or more, there is a possibility the suction control valve is stuck.

      • ECU-calculated value for the suction control valve actuation target current.


      • Value is large when a high fuel pressure is desired.

      • When this deviates from the standard value, it indicates that for some reason, even though the pump is running hard, the actual fuel pressure is inconsistent with the target fuel pressure.

      Results of real-vehicle check:


      • Ignition switch ON: 1008 mA

      • Cranking: 1155 mA

      • Running without load (2500 rpm): 1300 mA

      • Driving with the accelerator fully open at 2000 rpm: 1233 mA

      Injection Feedback Val #1 (to #4)
      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      Injection Feedback Val #1 (to #4)

      • When idling after the engine is warmed up, the fuel quantity of each fuel injector is corrected to make each cylinder engine speed equal.

      • Cylinders more than 3 mm3/st may have a fault.

      Tech Tips

      Read the value after one minute of idling after warm up (engine coolant temperature above 70°C (158°F)). This value is only calculated when idling.

      • Fault with a fuel injector or lack of compression of a cylinder with a large Injection Feedback Val.

      • Do a compression Active Test. If there is a cylinder that is around 100 rpm more than the other cylinders, there is a possibility that the compression of that cylinder is being lost.

      • If all the cylinder speeds are even according to the compression Active Test result, the fuel injector of the cylinder may have a fault.

      • With fuel injector faults, other than difficulty starting, there is a possibility of rough idling, lack of power, black smoke, white smoke and knocking.

      • When idling after warm up, the injection amount for each cylinder is corrected to optimize the difference of each cylinder engine speed.

        Example: For cylinders that are slowing the engine speed compared to other cylinders, the injection volume is increased.

      • "Injection Feedback Val" more than 3.0 mm3/st: Injector breakdown or insufficient compression is causing poor combustion.
      Injection Volume
      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      Injection Volume - -

      After warming up the engine, when Injection Volume during idling is 10 mm3/st or more, there is tendency for the injector to clog.

      Results of real-vehicle check:


      • Cranking: 22 mm3/st (Note: Varies depending on coolant temperature)

      • Idling (warm up the engine): 5 mm3/st

      • Running without load (2500 rpm): 8 mm3/st

      • Running without load (4700 rpm): 16 mm3/st

      • Driving with the accelerator fully open at 2000 rpm: 75 mm3/st

      • Driving with the accelerator fully open at 3000 rpm: 78 mm3/st

    3. Diesel Throttle

      Actual Throttle Position
      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      Actual Throttle Position

      • When the ignition switch is turned to ON (engine stopped), the diesel throttle is fully open. When the ignition switch is turned from ON to off, the diesel throttle is fully closed temporarily.

      • With the diesel throttle stuck almost fully closed, there is a possibility of rough idling, engine stall, black smoke, difficulty starting and lack of power.

      		 Diesel throttle body

      Actual Throttle Position is the closing percentage of the throttle valve.


      • Fully closed: 100%

      • Fully open: 0%

        Tech Tips

        There is no connection with the accelerator. However, under full load, the throttle is usually fully open (0%).

      Data List Judgment of Data List Values Faulty Component Diagnosis Note
      Actual EGR Valve Pos.

      • Generally Actual EGR Valve Pos. = Target EGR Pos. (Fully closed = 0%, Fully open = 100%)

      • The EGR valve Active Test can be used to check whether the Actual EGR Valve Pos. = Target EGR Pos.

      		 EGR valve assembly

      • Inspect while comparing to "Target EGR Valve Pos.".

      • Sometimes the malfunction only occurs around a certain temperature, so refer to the engine coolant temperature and outside temperature at the time the malfunction occurred.

      EGR Close Lrn. Val. When leaving the vehicle idling, with the EGR Close Lrn. Status OK, the normal range of EGR Close Lrn. Val. is within 0.34 to 0.70 V. In cases when EGR Close Lrn. Status is NG or EGR Close Lrn. Val. is at the maximum or minimum (0.34 to 0.70 V) of the normal range, it is possible that the EGR valve is not completely closed or a foreign object is lodged in the EGR valve seat area. -

      • This value is the EGR position sensor output voltage.

      • As the maximum and minimum settings are 0.34 V and 0.70 V, if the value becomes stuck at either of these, there is a malfunction in the lift sensor or the valve position is shifted (due to foreign matter, etc.).

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT


  1. Explanation of Symptom

    Starting Trouble

    For good starting it is essential to have:


    • Sufficient cranking speed.

    • Properly operating engine preheating system.

    • Good quality fuel.

    The fuel is ignited by the heat which is generated with compression pressure.

    With problems such as a depleted battery, the crankshaft speed can become low, or if the engine compression is leaking, the compression pressure will not rise and there will be difficulty starting.

    When the engine is cold, even if there is compression heat, it will escape from the combustion chamber. For this reason, when the engine is started when it is cold, the glow plugs heat the compressed air.

    Also, after starting the engine, by charging the glow plugs for a fixed time set according to the engine coolant temperature, diesel knocking and white smoke are prevented. The quantity of fuel injected is determined by the fuel pressure and also the amount of time the fuel injector is open.

      Using the hand pump mounted on the fuel filter cap, bleed the air from the fuel system. Continue pumping until the pump resistance increases.*1

      Note


      • Hand pump pumping speed: Maximum of 2 strokes/second.

      • Be sure to push the hand pump with a full stroke during pumping.

      • When the fuel pressure at the supply pump inlet port reaches a saturated pressure, the hand pump resistance increases.

      • If pumping is interrupted during the air bleeding process, fuel in the fuel line may return to the fuel tank. Continue pumping until the hand pump resistance increases.

      • If the hand pump resistance does not increase despite consecutively pumping 200 times or more, there may be a fuel leak between the fuel tank and fuel filter, the hand pump may be malfunctioning, or the vehicle may have run out of fuel.

      • If air bleeding using the hand pump is incomplete, the common rail pressure does not rise to the pressure range necessary for normal use, and the engine cannot be started.

    2. Start the engine.

      Note


      • Just after starting the engine, visually check for fuel leaks from the supply pump, fuel injector, common rail, and the fuel pipes in high-pressure areas.

  35. INSPECT FUEL INJECTOR (INSPECTION FOR VALVE CLOSING PROBLEM)


    1. Remove the glow plug assembly for all the cylinders Click here.

    2. Visually check if there is fuel on the glow plugs.

      Tech Tips


      • If there is fuel on a glow plug, fuel may be leaking from a fuel injector.

      • After replacing a fuel injector, make sure that the common rail pressure (fuel pressure) is within +/-5000 kPa of the target fuel pressure while cranking the engine.

      • If there is fuel on a glow plug, fuel may have mixed with the engine oil. Check the engine oil amount and whether the engine oil smells of diesel fuel. If the oil level is above the full line or the engine oil smells of diesel fuel, replace the engine oil.
