Fuel System (1MZ-FE/3MZ-FE): Inspection
- INSPECT FUEL INJECTOR ASSY
- Check the injector resistance.
- Measure the resistance between the terminals.
Standard: 13.4 to 14.2 Ω at 20°C (68°F)
If the result is not as specified, replace the injector.
- Check the injector injection.CAUTION:
- This test involves high-pressure fuel and electricity.
- Take every precaution regarding safe handling of both the fuel and the electricity.
- Perform this test in a safe area, and avoid any sparks or flame.
- Do not smoke.
- Purchase the new fuel tube and take out the fuel tube connector from its pipe.
Fuel tube: Parts No. 23801-20190
- Connect SST and the fuel tube connector to the fuel pipe.CAUTION: Always read the precautions (see PRECAUTION ) before connecting the fuel tube connector (quick type).
- Install the O-ring to the injector.
- Connect SST (union and hose) to the injector, and hold the injector and the union with SST (clamp)
- Put the injector into a graduated cylinder.
HINT:
Install a suitable vinyl tube onto the injector to contain the gasoline spray.
- Operate the fuel pump (see ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION ).
- Connect SST (wire) to the injector and the battery for 15 seconds, and measure the injection volume with a graduated cylinder. Test each injector 2 or 3 times.
SST 09842-30070
Standard:
INJECTION VOLUME - REFERENCE TABLEInjection Volume Difference Between Each Injector 60 to 73 cm3 (3.7 to 4.5 cu in.) per 15 seconds 13 cm3 (0.8 cu in.) or less NOTE: Always turn on and off the voltage on the battery side, not the fuel pump side.If the injection volume is not as specified, replace the injector.
- Check fuel leakage.
- In the condition above, disconnect the test probes of SST (wire) from the battery and check the fuel leakage from the injector.
Fuel drop: 1 drop or less per 12 minutes
- Check the injector resistance.
- INSPECT FUEL PUMP
- Check the fuel pump resistance.
- Measure the resistance between the terminals.
Standard: 0.2 to 3.0 Ω at 20°C (68°F)
- Check fuel pump operation.
- Apply battery voltage to both the terminals. Check that the pump operates.
NOTE:- These tests must be done within 10 seconds to prevent the coil from burning out.
- Keep fuel pump as far away from the battery as possible.
- Always turn on and off the voltage on the battery side, not the fuel pump side.
- Check the fuel pump resistance.
