FUEL SYSTEM ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK FUEL PUMP OPERATION AND INSPECT FOR FUEL LEAK


    1. Check fuel pump operation.


      1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

      2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

        Note

        Do not start the engine.

      3. Turn the GTS on.

      4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Activate the Circuit Relay.


        Powertrain > Engine > Active Test
        Tester Display
        Activate the Circuit Relay
      5. Check for pressure in the fuel tube sub-assembly from the fuel line. Check that sounds of fuel flowing from the fuel tank assembly can be heard. If no sounds can be heard, check the relay, fuel pump, ECM and wiring connectors.

    2. Inspect for fuel leaks.


      1. Check that there are no fuel leaks from the fuel system after doing any maintenance or repairs. If there is a fuel leak, repair or replace parts as necessary.

    3. Turn the engine switch off.

    4. Disconnect the GTS from the DLC3.

  2. CHECK FUEL PRESSURE


    1. Discharge fuel system pressure.

    2. Measure the battery voltage.

      Standard Voltage
      11 to 14 V
    3. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

      Note

      When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.

    5. Disconnect the fuel tube sub-assembly (for Port Injection).


      1. B0073XE

        Disengage the claw to open the cover of the No. 1 fuel pipe clamp.

        Note

        Do not remove the No. 1 fuel pipe clamp from the fuel tube connector.

      2. B00731A

        Disconnect the No. 2 fuel tube sub-assembly from the fuel pipe.

      Install SST (EFI fuel pressure gauge) as shown in the illustration.

      SST
      09268-45101   ( 09268-41250, 09268-41260, 09268-41280, 09268-41500, 09268-41700, 95336-08070 )
    7. Wipe up any spilled fuel.

    8. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

      Note

      When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.

      Click here

    9. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    10. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

      Note

      Do not start the engine.

    11. Turn the GTS on.

    12. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Activate the Circuit Relay.


      Powertrain > Engine > Active Test
      Tester Display
      Activate the Circuit Relay
    13. Measure the fuel pressure.

      Standard Fuel Pressure
      196 to 833 kPa (2.0 to 8.5 kgf/cm2, 28 to 121 psi)

      • If the fuel pressure is less than the standard, check the fuel hoses and their connections, fuel pump, fuel filter and fuel main valve assembly.

      • If the result is not as specified, replace the fuel main valve assembly.

    14. Disconnect the GTS from the DLC3.

    15. Start the engine.

    16. Measure the fuel pressure at idle.

      Standard Fuel Pressure
      196 to 833 kPa (2.0 to 8.5 kgf/cm2, 28 to 121 psi)

      Tech Tips

      Refer to Standard Idle Speed.

      Click here

    17. Stop the engine.

    18. Check that the fuel pressure remains as specified for 5 minutes.

      Standard Fuel Pressure
      98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm2, 14 psi) or more

      If the result is not as specified, check the fuel pump, fuel main valve assembly and/or fuel injector assemblies.

    19. After checking the fuel pressure, disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and carefully remove SST to prevent fuel from spraying.

      Note

      When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.

      2400 to 19500 kPag

      If the result is not as specified, check the fuel pump, fuel pump assembly, fuel pressure sensor (fuel delivery pipe with sensor assembly LH) (for High Pressure) and wire harnesses.

    7. Stop the engine.
