Fuel system check (4JJ3 without DPD)

Note

  • The fuel piping between the fuel tank and the fuel supply pump is slightly vacuumed when the engine is running. Therefore, if the piping is not connected securely, air can get inside. If the engine speed or the engine load increases while air is in the fuel system, fluctuation in the fuel rail pressure occurs.
  • If the vehicle runs out of fuel, air may be entered in the fuel system. When there is air in the fuel piping, the smooth flow of fuel into the fuel supply pump is interrupted and this DTC may be set. Bleed air from the fuel piping after refilling.

1. Engine control system check

Refer to "51.Engine Control 1A.Troubleshooting(4JJ3 without DPD) Diagnostic system check-engine controls".

2. Prioritized DTC check

1) Connect the scan tool.

2) Turn OFF the ignition switch for 1 minute or more.

3) Crank the engine for 15 seconds.

4) Observe the DTC information with a scan tool. Is a DTC set?

Yes

Go to the applicable DTC diagnosis.

No

=>Go to Injector operation check.

3. Injector operation check

1) Perform the Injector Cutoff with a scan tool.

2) Command each injector ON/OFF while checking the operation sound of the solenoid. Does the solenoid make any operation sound with the execution of each command?

Yes

=>Go to Fuel amount inspection.

=>Go to Fuel quality inspection.

5. Fuel quality inspection

1) Take a fuel sample from the fuel tank and inspect whether the fuel quality is good. Is the result normal?

Yes

=>Go to Fuel leakage inspection in the component..

No

Change the fuel.

6. Fuel leakage inspection in the component.

1) Inspect for a fuel leakage at the high-pressure side components between the fuel supply pump and the injector for the following. Is the result normal?

  • Fuel supply pump
  • Fuel rail
  • FRP reduction valve
  • FRP sensor
  • The fuel pipe between the fuel supply pump and the fuel rail
  • The fuel pipe between the fuel rail and the injector.
  • Sleeve nut of the fuel pipe

Note

  • Check for fuel leakage from the high pressure piping inlet to the bottom of the cylinder head cover. If a fuel leakage exists, the engine oil level will rise. Inspect the engine oil for fuel contamination.
  • Remove and inspect the high-pressure pipe joints connected to the injectors for fuel leakage from the sleeve nuts. When foreign material is attached, replace the injector and the high pressure pipe.

  • When a leak exists in the fuel system between the priming pump and fuel supply pump, the pushing weight of the priming pump does not get heavy.

3) Inspect that the fuel piping between the fuel tank and the fuel supply pump is properly connected, there are no cuts or cracks in the fuel hoses, and proper clamps are used. Is the result normal?

Note

  • The fuel piping between the fuel tank and the fuel supply pump is slightly vacuumed when the engine is running. Therefore, if the piping is not connected securely, air can get inside. If the engine speed or the engine load increases while air is in the fuel system, fluctuation in the fuel rail pressure occurs, and this DTC may be set.

4) Are all of the results normal?

Yes

=>Go to Fuel pressure verification.

No

Repair as necessary.

=>Go to Repair verification.

8. Fuel pressure verification

1) Bleed the air from the fuel piping as necessary.

2) Start and idle the engine. If the engine does not start, continue cranking.

3) Observe the Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) parameter and Desired Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) parameter on the scan tool. When idling or cranking the engine, is the difference between the Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) parameter and the Desired Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) parameter within the specified range?

Value: -5 to 5 MPa { -725 to 725 psi }

Yes

The system is normal.

No

=>Go to Suction side fuel piping inspection.

9. Suction side fuel piping inspection

1) Turn OFF the ignition switch.

2) Disconnect the fuel feed hose from the fuel supply pump.

Note

  • Use a pan to collect the fuel that has leaked from the disconnected fuel feed hose.

3) Connect the vacuum pump to the fuel feed hose.

Note

  • The vacuum pump must be cleaned before connecting to the fuel piping. The fuel supply pump may be damaged due to the foreign material that has intruded into the connection hose.
