id011495800800


Simulation Test

1.  Carry out the “Fuel Line Pressure Inspection”. (See ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM OPERATION INSPECTION [G6].)

•  If not as specified, perform the inspection for the pressure regulator.


Operation Inspection

Note
•  Perform the following test only when directed.

1.  Complete the “BEFORE REPAIR PROCEDURE”. (See BEFORE REPAIR PROCEDURE [G6].)

2.  Disconnect the negative battery cable.

3.  Connect a fuel pressure gauge between the pulsation damper and fuel main hose.

4.  Connect the negative battery cable.

5.  Start the engine and let it idle.

6.  Measure the fuel line pressure after approx. 2 min.

Fuel line pressure
210—250 kPa {2.1—2.6 kgf/cm2, 30—36 psi}

7.  Disconnect the vacuum hose from the pressure regulator and measure the fuel line pressure.

Fuel line pressure
270—310 kPa {2.7—3.2 kgf/cm2,39—45 psi}

8.  Turn the ignition switch off.

9.  Complete the “BEFORE REPAIR PROCEDURE”. (See BEFORE REPAIR PROCEDURE [G6].)

10.  Disconnect the negative battery cable.

11.  Disconnect the fuel pressure gauge.

12.  Reconnect the fuel main hose to the fuel distributor.

13.  Reconnect the negative battery cable.

•  If not as specified, inspect the following:
―  Fuel pump maximum pressure
―  Fuel pump hold pressure
―  Fuel filter for clogging
―  Fuel injector for leakage
―  Fuel pump relay
―  Fuel line for improper routing, clogging, kinks or leakage
•  If all items above are okay, replace the pressure regulator. (See FUEL INJECTOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [G6].)

14.  Complete the “AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE”. (See AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE [G6].)
