MPI SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATION
The basic function of the MPI (Multi-Point Injection) system isto control the air-fuel ratio, based on data from various sensors.The MPI system is composed of three basic systems: Fuel, Intakeand Electronic Control.
Fuel System
Fuel is supplied under constant pressure to the injectors by anelectric fuel pump in the fuel tank. The pressure is controlledby the pressure regulator. Based on ECU signals, the injectorsinject fuel jnto the intake manifold in the correct firing order.
Intake System
The flow rate of the intake air is measured by the AFS (Air FlowSensor) in the air cleaner. The amount of intake air during idling,warm-up and deceleration is controlled by the ISC (Idle SpeedControl) servo through the ECU.
Electronic Control System
The electronic control system is composed of sensors, whichmonitor engine conditions, and the Electronic Control Unit (ECU),which calculates the injection timing and air/fuel ratio accordingto the signals from the sensors.The sensors convert such conditions as the amount of intake air,amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas, coolant temperature,intake air temperature, engine speed, and vehicle speed intoelectrical signals, which are sent to the ECU.Analyzing these signals, the ECU determines the amount of fuelto inject and drives the injectors. The fuel injection is sequentialinjection type, in which four injectors are sequentially driven.During idling, the ISC Servo is driven according to engine loadto assure stable idling.

MPI SYSTEM INSPECTION
If the MPI system components (sensors, ECU, injector, etc.) fail,interruption or failure to supply the proper amount of fuel forengine operating conditions will result. Therefore, the followingsituations will be encountered.1. Engine is hard to start or does not start at all.2. Unstable idle.3. Poor driveability.
If any of the above conditions are noted, first check for any ECUdiagnostic codes and then perform basic engine checks (ignitionsystem malfunction, incorrect engine adjustment, etc.), and theninspect the MPI system components with the multi-use tester(MUT) service data test.
NOTE1) Before removing or installing any part, read the diagnosis
code, then disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal.2) Before disconnecting the cable from battery terminal, turn
the ignition switch to OFF. Removal or replacement ofbattery cable during engine operation or while the ignitionswitch is ON could cause damage to the ECU.
3) The harness between the ECU and the oxygen sensor isshielded to prevent the influence of ignition noises andradio interference. When the wire is faulty, the harnessmust be replaced.
Malfunction Indicator Light
Among the self-diagnostic items, a malfunction indicator lightcomes on to notify the driver of emission control items that aremalfunctioning.However, when a signal returns to normal and the ECU sensesthat it has returned to normal, the malfunction indicator lightgoes out.Immediately after the ignition switch is turned on, themalfunction indicator light is lit for 2.5 seconds to indicated thatit is operating normally.The MIL will come ON only while the engine is running and aproblem is detected.

SELF-DIAGNOSIS
The electronic control unit monitors the input/output signals atall times.When the ECU detects a problem for a specified time, theelectronic control unit memorizes the trouble code, and outputsa signal to the self-diagnositc output terminal.There are 14 diagnosis codes, including the normal code, thatcan be read out with a voltmeter or the multi-use tester.The diagnosis codes are memorized even if the ignition key isturned off. The trouble codes will, however, be erased when thebattery terminal or the electronic control unit harness isdisconnected.
NOTEIf a sensor connector is disconnected with the ignition switchturned on, a diagnosis code will be memorized. To erase anydiagnostic codes, disconnect the battery negative terminal (-)for 15 seconds or more, and the ECU memory will be erased.
The 13 diagnostic codes are listed below, and if more than onecode is detected, they will be indicated sequentially from thesmallest to the largest code number.

CHECKING (USING THE MULTI-USE TESTER)
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.2. Connect the harness connector of the multi-use tester to the
diagnostic connector in the fuse box.3. Connect the power-source terminal of the multi-use tester
to the cigarette lighter socket.4. Turn the ignition switch ON.5. Use the multi-use- tester to make the system and sensor
checks.
NOTEIf the malfunction indicator light (engine-check light)illuminates while the checks are being made, check theself-diagnostic output.
6. After the repair, check again to be sure the problem has beencorrected.
7. Turn the ignition switch OFF.8. Disconnect the multi-use tester.9. Disconnect the battery negative terminal for 15 seconds or
longer. This erases the self-diagnostic code.10. Restart the engine. Check (by a driving test and other means)
that the problem has been corrected.
NOTEIf a test is to be made during cranking, the power to thecigarette lighter will be interrupted, therefore, use theseparate battery harness for the multi-use tester.

FBC System Component
1. Electric Control Unit (ECU)
Based on the information- from various sensors, the ECU
determines (computes) ideal setting for varying operating
conditions and drives the output actuators to control the
air-fuel ratio.
The ECU consists of an 8-bit microprocessor, random access
memory (RAM), read only memory (ROM) and input/output
(l/O) interface.
3 1 - 8 0
-
GENERAL (FBC)
2. Engine Coolant Temperature SensorThe engine coolant temperature sensor is installed in theengine coolant passage of the intake manifold. This coolantsensor is a thermistor. The ECU determines enginetemperature by the sensor output voltage and utilize it toprovide optimum fuel enrichment when the engine is cold.
3. Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)The TPS is a rotary type variable resistor that rotates togetherwith the carburetor throttle shaft to sense the throttle valveangle. As the throttle shaft rotates, the TPS output voltagechanges and the ECU detects the throttle valve openingbased on the change of the voltage.Using the TPS output signal, engine speed signal and othersignals, the ECU maintains the optimum air-fuel ratio.
4. Engine Speed SensorThe ignition coil negative terminal voltage makes suddenincrease twice per crankshaft revolution synchronously withignition timing.By sensing this ignition coil negative terminal voltage changeand measuring the time between peak voltages, the ECUcomputes the engine speed, judges the engine operatingmode and controls the air-fuel ratio and ignition timing.
-
GENERAL (FBC)
5. Oxygen Sensor1) The oxygen sensor installed on the exhaust manifold
makes use of the principles of solid electrolyte oxygenconcentration cell. The oxygen concentration cell ischaracterized by sharp change of the output voltage inthe vicinity of the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.
2) Using such characteristics, the oxygen sensor senses theoxygen concentration in the exhaust gas and feeds it tothe ECU. The ECU then judges if the air-fuel ratio isricher or leaner as compared to the stoichiometric ratioand provides feedback control to adjust the air-fuel ratioto the stoichiometric ratio where the emission purifi-cation rate of the three way catalytic converter is theoptimum.
6. Vacuum SwitchThe vacuum switch is a contact type switch that is operatedby intake manifold vacuum. When the throttle valve closes,the intake manifold vacuum acts on the vacuum switch toclose its contact.By this action, the voltage on the ECU side is grounded andthe ECU senses that the throttle valve opening is near idle.
3 1 - 8 2

GENERAL (FBC)
7. Feedback Solenoid Valve (FBSV)The FBSV is installed in the carburetor float chamber cover.The ECU controls the air-fuel ratio by controlling the dutycycle of the FBSV.The higher is the duty ratio, the leaner becomes the air-fuelratio.
NOTEThe duty cycle control means control of the solenoid valveenergization rate by changing the ON time ratio T2/T1(called duty ratio) of 10 Hz pulse.
8. Slow Cut Solenoid Valve (SCSV)The SCSV is located in the carburetor float chamber cover.The ECU controls the carburetor slow system fuel flow bycontrolling the duty cycle of the SCSV.
3 1 - 8 3
-
GENERAL (FBC)
FBC System Operation
1. The air-fuel ratio control is maintained by the ECU in oneof two operating modes.1) Closed loop control (Feedback control)
After engine warm-up, the air-fuel ratio control is madeby the feedback control based on the oxygen sensorsignal.The oxygen sensor output voltage changes sharply at thestoichiometric ratio. The control unit senses this oxygensensor signal and provides feedback control to the FBSVmaintaining the stoichiometric ratio that will give thebest purification rate of the 3-catalyst converter may beaccurately kept. In this state, the SCSV is kept wide open(100% duty).
2) Open loop control (No feedback control)During engine start, warm-up operation, high loadoperation and deceleration, the air-fuel ratio is inopen-loop. The ECU controlled based on map values*established previously for engine speed, throttle valveopening angle and engine coolant temperature, toimprove startability and driveability.During deceleration, the SCSV limits fuel flow for betterfuel economy and for prevention of overheating of thecatalysts.* Map value is a value previously established and
stored in ROM in ECU.
2. When the FBSV is energized, the main fuel jet is closed toleaving the primary main jet passage as the only fuelpassage.This reduces the amount of fuel, resulting in leaner air-fuelmixture.
3. When the FBSV is de-energized, the main fuel jet is openedto provide two fuel passages including the primary main jetpassage. Since this will increase the amount of fuel, richerair-fuel mixture is obtained.With the ON-OFF operation of SCSV, the slow fuel passageis opened and closed.The air-fuel ratio at deceleration is controlled in this manner.

Distributor Advance Control System(Ignition Timing Control System)
The distributor vacuum advance is a dual diaphragm type havingmain vacuum chamber and sub-vacuum chamber. To control theignition timing, the ECU energizes the solenoid valves in therespective vacuum circuits of main vacuum chamber andsubvacuum chamber.
1. Main Vacuum Timing Control1) When the engine speed is near the idle speed (1,200 rpm
or less), the ECU energizes the distributor advancecontrol solenoid valve. By this action the carburetor Dport vacuum is introduced to the main vacuum chamberwhich resets the ignition timing.
NOTEThe D port vacuum is zero when the throttle valve isat idle position, and increases with the valve openingangle.
3 1 - 8 5
-
GENERAL (FBC)
2. Sub-vacuum Timing Control
2) When the engine speed increases to 1,200 rpm the ECUturns off the distributor advance control solenoid valve.Intake manifold vacuum is routed to the main vacuumchamber increasing ignition advance.
When the engine starts to warm up [engine coolanttemperatures: below 80C (176F), the solenoids areenergized, allowing D port vacuum to reach mainvacuum chamber.
o Control at low altitude [approx. 1,200 m (3,900 ft.) orlower]1) When the engine coolant temperature is low [50C
(122F) or lower], the ECU energizes the distributor coldadvance control solenoid valve. By this action, the intakemanifold vacuum no longer leaks to atmosphere andinstead is introduced to the sub-vacuum chamber. As aresult, the timing advanced by the main vacuum advanceis additionally advanced by a fixed angle (5C in crank
angle).2) During warm-up operation or when the engine coolant
temperature is- high [over 50C (122F)], the ECUde-energizes the distributor cold advance controlsolenoid valve circuit. As a result, the intake manifoldvacuum leaks to atmosphere, which prevents timingadvance.
o Control at high altitude [approx, 1,200 m (3,900 ft.) or over)At high altitude, the HAC is closed and hence the intakemanifold vacuum does not leak to atmosphere from the HAC.Independently of the distributor cold advance control solenoidvalve, the intake manifold vacuum acts on the sub-vacuumchamber, causing the timing to advance by a fixed angle (5in crank angle).

Throttle Opener System (For power steering,electrical load)
If the power steering oil pressure switch is turned on by highpump pressure the throttle opener control solenoid valve isenergized to introduce intake manifold vacuum to the throttleopener. The throttle valve opens slightly, preventing enginespeed drop caused by power steering load.
When the engine speed drops below the set speed (1,200 rpm),the ECU keeps the power transistor on. When the electrical loadswitch is turned on for lighting etc., the throttle opener controlsolenoid valve is energized, allowing intake manifold vacuum tothe throttle opener to open the throttle valve slightly, preventingengine speed drop caused by electrical load.

Throttle Opener Switch (For A/C)
When the engine speed is below the set speed (1,200 rpm), theECU keeps the power transistor on. When the air conditionerrelay is turned on the throttle opener control solenoid valve isenergized to introduce intake manifold vacuum to the throttleopener. The throttle valve opens slightly preventing enginespeed drop caused by air conditioner load.
Air Conditioner Power Relay Control System (For A/T)
When the throttle valve opening increases (over 74) duringacceleration etc., the ECU turns off the air conditioning powerrelay for about 5 seconds. As a result, even if the air conditionerswitch it is, the air compressor is not driven and hence theengine load is reduced, improving acceleration performance.

Cold Mixture Heater (CMH) Relay ControlSystem
The cold mixture heater is a Positive Temperature Coefficient(PTC) heater installed between the carburetor and intakemanifold.When the engine coolant temperature is below 60C (140F), theECU energizes the cold mixture heater relay. The closed relaysupplies voltage to the cold mixture heater. The cool air-fuelmixture is heated and atomized by the heater before it reachesthe combustion chamber for improved combustion.

Electric Auto Choke System
In the carburetor electric choke system, a bimetal choke springis heated by an electric heater (PTC heater*).
As the bimetal spring is heated by the heater after start-up, thebimetal opens the choke valve gradually by thermal expansionand pushes down the stopper lever.
The lower the temperature when the engine is started, thetighter the bimetal closes the choke valve, thus improving at coldweather starting.

1. Choke Valve and Fast Idle Cam Operation1) Before starting the engine, the throttle valve is in normal
idle opening state.
2) Before starting the engine, depress the accelerator pedalto the floor, and the fast idle cam will turn clockwise.Release the accelerator pedal, and the lever will ride onthe fast idle cam and the throttle valve will open.
3) When the engine starts, the intake manifold vacuum isapplied to the choke breaker to slightly open the chokevalve, preventing a rich air-fuel mixture.
4) Shortly after starting of engine, the bimetal is heated bythe heater and expands to open the choke valve graduallyand push down the stopper lever.At this time, the engine speed increases gradually.
5) Depress the accelerator pedal, and the fast idle cam willturn counterclockwise. Release the accelerator pedal andthe lever will ride on the lower step of fast idle cam andthe throttle valve will close slightly, decreasing theengine speed. After warming up the engine for a while,depress the accelerator pedal and the throttle valve willbe further closed.By repeating this procedure, the fast idle cam is releasedand the throttle valve comes to have a normal idleopening.

GENERAL (FBC)
2. Operation of Choke OpenerIf the engine has been started with the throttle valve leveron the highest fast idle cam step then the engine speed willincrease with the engine coolant temperature. This resultsin the engine overrun. In order to prevent such overrun, thechoke opener is provided.
1) When the thermo valve closes as the engine coolanttemperature rises [65C (149F)], the intake manifoldvacuum acts on the fast idle breaker.
2) The fast idle breaker forces the fast idle cam tocounterclockwise so that the lever will rest on the lowestdetent of cam, closing the throttle valve to decrease theengine speed.
3. Electric Auto Choke RelayThe electric choke relay is normally closed (ON) and it openswhen its coil is energized.
During engine cranking or for approx. 80 seconds at anengine coolant temperature of -10 to 18C (-14 to 64F),the ECU energizes the electric choke relay coil. This preventsheating of the electric choke heater, until the engine hasstarted.
