Cause

INSPECTION START

Fix

Check and adjust idle speed and ignition timing. (Refer to EF & EC-397.) Idle speed: 850±50 rpm Ignition timing: 15°±2° B.T.D.C.

Cause

Check and adjust idle speed and ignition timing. (Refer to EF & EC-397.) Idle speed: 850±50 rpm Ignition timing: 15°±2° B.T.D.C.

Fix

Race engine (2,000 - 3,000 rpm) 2 or 3 times under no-load, then run engine at idle.

Cause

Race engine (2,000 - 3,000 rpm) 2 or 3 times under no-load, then run engine at idle.

Fix

Turn off engine and remove air flow meter from vehicle.

Cause

Turn off engine and remove air flow meter from vehicle.

Fix

Drill a hole in seal plug which seals variable resistor of air flow meter and remove seal plug.

Cause

Drill a hole in seal plug which seals variable resistor of air flow meter and remove seal plug.

Fix

Install air flow meter on vehicle. Start engine and warm it up until water temperature indicator reads normal operating temperature.

Cause

Fix

Race engine (2,000 - 3,000 rpm) 2 or 3 times under no-load, then run engine at idle speed.

Cause

Race engine (2,000 - 3,000 rpm) 2 or 3 times under no-load, then run engine at idle speed.

Fix

Adjust mixture ratio with engine speed set at maximum by turning variable resistor.

Cause

Adjust mixture ratio with engine speed set at maximum by turning variable resistor.

Fix

Turn variable resistor of air flow meter one full turn counterclockwise.

Cause

Turn variable resistor of air flow meter one full turn counterclockwise.

Fix

Turn off engine and remove air flow meter from vehicle.

Cause

Turn off engine and remove air flow meter from vehicle.

Fix

Insert new seal plug into variable resistor hole. Tap seal plug with a suitable bar, thereby installing seal plug on air flow meter.
