Fuel Supply System

Fuel Cutoff Control

During deceleration with the throttle valve closed, current to the injectors is cut off to improve fuel economy at engine speeds over 850 rpm. Fuel cutoff control also occurs when the engine speed exceeds 6,800 rpm, regardless of the position of the throttle valve, to protect the engine from over-revving. When the vehicle is stopped, the PCM cuts the fuel at engine speeds over 5,000 rpm. On a cold engine, fuel cut occurs at a lower engine speed.

Fuel Pump Control

When the ignition switch is turned to ON (II), the PCM grounds PGM-FI main relay 2 which feeds current to the fuel pump control module. The PCM sends a signal to the fuel pump control module to operate the fuel pump for 2 seconds to pressurize the fuel system. When the engine starts, the fuel pump speed is controlled in four levels by the fuel pump control module. The PCM selects the fuel pump speed based on calculating the injector activation time and engine speed and sends a operation command signal to the fuel pump control module. This operation decrease fuel pump noise at low engine speed.

PGM-FI Main Relays 1 and 2

PGM-FI main relay 1 is energized whenever the ignition switch is turned to ON (II) to supply battery voltage to the PCM, power to the injectors, and power for PGM-FI main relay 2. PGM-FI main relay 2 is energized to supply power to the fuel pump control module for 2 seconds when the ignition switch is turned to ON (II), and when the engine is cranking or running.
