•  The idle speed is too slow and the engine shakes excessively.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Air leakage from intake-air system parts
•  A/C system operation is improper
•  Erratic signal to ignition coil
•  Spark plug malfunction
•  Purge solenoid valve malfunction
•  Improper operation of electronic throttle control system
•  Idle learning of electronic throttle control system is not completed
•  EGR valve malfunction
•  Erratic or no signal from CMP sensor
•  Low engine compression
•  Improper valve timing
•  Improper variable valve timing control system operation
•  Erratic signal from CKP sensor
•  Improper air/fuel mixture ratio control operation (abnormal signal from MAF sensor, front HO2S or rear HO2S)
•  Open or short circuit in PCM ground circuit
•  Poor fuel quality
•  PCV valve malfunction
•  Air cleaner restriction
•  Restriction in exhaust system
•  Disconnected electrical connectors
•  Inadequate fuel pressure
•  Fuel pump body mechanical malfunction
•  Improper load signal input
•  Fuel line restriction or clogging
•  Improper fuel injection control operation
•  Fuel leakage from fuel injector
•  Fuel injector clogging
•  Engine overheating
•  Vacuum leakage
•  Pressure regulator malfunction (built-in fuel pump unit)
Warning
The following troubleshooting flow chart contains the fuel system diagnosis and repair procedures. Read the following warnings before performing the fuel system services:
•  Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep sparks and flames away from fuel.
•  Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the "BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION" and "AFTER SERVICE PRECAUTION" described in this manual.
Caution
•  If there is foreign material on the connecting area of the quick release connector, it might damage the connector or fuel pipe. To prevent this, disconnect the connector and clean the connecting area before connecting.

Go to the next step.
5
Connect WDS or equivalent to DLC-2.
Access MAF PID.
Drive vehicle with monitoring PID.
Is MAF PID within specification?
(See PCM INSPECTION [ZY].)
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Inspect for open or short circuit of MAF sensor and related wiring harness.
6
Note
•  Following test is for engine running rough idle with the A/C on concerns. If other symptoms exist, go to the next step.
Connect pressure gauge to the A/C low and high pressure side lines.
Start the engine and idle it.
Turn the A/C switch on.
Measure low side and high side pressures.
Are pressures within specifications?
(See REFRIGERANT PRESSURE CHECK.)
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
If the A/C is always on, go to symptom troubleshooting "No.24 A/C is always on or A/C compressor runs continuously".
(See NO.24 A/C IS ALWAYS ON OR A/C COMPRESSOR RUNS CONTINUOUSLY [ZY].)
For other symptoms, inspect following:
•  Refrigerant charging amount
•  Condenser fan operation
7
Visually inspect the CKP sensor and teeth of the crankshaft pulley.
Are the CKP sensor and teeth of the crankshaft pulley normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the malfunctioning part.
8
Measure gap between the CKP sensor and teeth of crankshaft pulley.
Specification
0.5—1.5 mm {0.02—0.05 in}
Is gap within specification?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the crankshaft pulley.
9
Inspect the ignition coil related wiring harness condition (intermittent open or short circuit) for all cylinders.
Are wiring harness conditions normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair the wiring harnesses.
10
Inspect the spark plug condition.
Is the spark plug wet, covered with carbon or grayish white?
Yes
Spark plug is wet or covered with carbon:
